Could You be the Victim of a Scam?

There has been a rash of scams aimed at consumers such as you that have caused many to lose their hard earned money.

  • Did you receive a check or money order and were asked to send a portion of the funds back to the maker?
  • Were you told you won a competition or promotion that you did not enter?
  • Were you asked to buy “low-risk” shares in a fund for purchasing “high-stakes” tickets?
  • Were you offered bait prizes that are substandard or were you asked to purchase “exclusive items?”
  • Were you told that a prize you won requires travel or other arrangements at your own expense?
  • Were you promised easy money by working at home and were asked to send them money minus your “pay?”

In all these cases, victims are asked to withdraw cash and wire the funds via Money Gram and Western Union.
