Dont Get Scammed
I've got a confession to make... I was scammed by a company
promising me I can stay at home and type data into forms and
make over two hundred dollars a day.
There are a lot of scams going on out there, these are just a
couple of scams to be on the look out for.
Scam #1 You Won The Lottery!
This is an e-mail scam from a person or company informing
you that you have just won the lottery. Payment is required
to get your huge unsolicited lottery winnings transferred
into your country/bank account. There are no 'winnings' .
If you receive a "prize notification" from a suspicious
lottery:
• don't respond to the emails
• don't pay any money in advance to collect a prize
• don't reveal your full identity
• don't reveal your bank account number or credit card
details
Scam #2 Employment and Job
Look out for these:
"Local Representative Needed"
"Shipping Manager"
"Financial Manager"
"Sales Manager"
"Type from home"
These headlines are from companies offering you easy money
for just a few hours of work a week. Remember if it sounds
to good to be true, then it is.
If you encounter any of these scams or you were scammed
please report the email or website to the following
agencies:
The Federal Trade Commission

The United States Secret Service

The U.S.Postal Inspection Service

National Assocation of Attorneys General

Better Business Bureau
http://www.bbb.org/
IFCC/IC3

NW3C

Please don't fall for the scams they have going on out
there. Some of these companies look like they are the real
deal but in all truth they are not. Nobody likes being
taken, I myself personally felt like a fool for falling for
one of these.
Take action and help take these fraud companies down, if it
can happen to me than it can happen to any of you.
