Did you know that a scammer could target you without even contacting you?

Fraudulent checks work differently than most scams. In most cases, the scammer will contact their victim and try to get them to send money or give personal information. But with a fraudulent check scheme, the scammer doesn’t even need to talk to their victims. All they need is a list of names and addresses.

Fraudulent checks are becoming more and more common. In one recent case, a Las Vegas senior citizen was accused of targeting elderly people in a multi-million dollar fraudulent check scheme. To protect yourself from such scams, learn more about how he swindled unsuspecting seniors out of millions by reading The Seniors Center Blog’s post “Stay Safe from Fraudulent Check Schemes.”
