BAYFORD elenaku@nccu.edu.tw Lottery donation SCAM!



Please be careful who you trust in this economy.  The most common scams I see are people asking you to: cash checks and wire them money, print checks from your home, give your personal info and/or pay a "fee" for a donation/winnings or ATM card.

    1. I think you're safe, he seemed to mostly be interested in getting your address to send you a "fake" check to get you to cash it then wire him the money. Keep an eye out on your credit report and if anything notifies you about your credit report than I'd be worried.

      These scammers have perfected the art of mailing fake checks to US citizens and then asking for them to cash them over the weekend when a bank cashier is not present so in many cases they use the ATM machine to deposit the fake check. The scammer is then asking you to withdraw a balance and wire them this amount. It's a scam as the check will then bounce come Monday morning and you will be out 1800 and in some cases investigated further by local authorities.

      I think you're safe so long as you don't give anymore information and don't cash anything he sends to you.
