article: Many scammers now operate through the internet, specifically through social media and email. Be wary of any messages you receive from people claiming to be businesses, particularly your bank or a government agency. These entities will never ask for sensitive personal information, like your Social Security Number or driver's license number, or money through email, but scammers will impersonate them and ask for it.  Other types of scams include "free" trials where you must input your credit card information (though there are many reputable companies that do this as well), depositing a check to get money wired to you, and paying upfront for some service or reward, among many others. If something you have received online seems suspect, type in the sender's name or information into a search engine with "fraud," "scam," or "complaint" to see if others have reported a scam matching the description. Getting something for nothing is a hallmark of many of these scams. Virtually no one offers something for nothing, so if that is at the heart of a suspicious pitch, further investigation is necessary.  If it sounds too good to be true, it almost certainly is. If someone claims they have an inheritance from a long lost relative, a high-paying-do-nothing job, or unclaimed lottery winnings from a ticket you don't remember buying, be very leery. There is almost never a reason to send money via wire transfer anymore. It is permanent and nonrefundable, which is why scammers like people to send them money this way. If a stranger asks you to send money via wire transfer, find an alternative method of money transfer. Lottery and inheritance scams work in similar ways. The recipient receives an official-looking check or notice that they have won a lottery or are slated to receive an inheritance. The recipient is then asked to pay a fee outright to cash the check, or “deposit” an amount of money (smaller than the supposed prize) in order to claim their prize. Of course, the deposit is never returned, the prize or inheritance is never given, and the victim is responsible for any bank fees. With the advent of the internet, relationship scams are becoming far more common, and they can affect anyone who dabbles in online dating. Relationship scams typically go like this:  The victim meets a new love interest online, and the courtship is fast and intense. After the relationship becomes official, the new love interest is visited by a tragedy, such as a medical emergency or a robbery.  Alternatively, they need money in order to visit the victim.  The money is sent, whether it be by wire transfer, traveler's checks, or money order.  The love interest is never heard from again. Another type of relationship scam involves receiving a call from a scammer who claims to have abducted your child. The scammer will demand a ransom payment immediately and say that the parent must not try calling the police because the kidnappers will know and harm the child.When faced with this situation, immediately call your child's school or wherever they are supposed to be to make sure they are safe. Work-from-home scams are some of the simplest scams around. Often the victim is lead into the scam via a roadside sign, a comment in an internet forum, or a pop-up ad. Common “employment” fields are medical transcription and billing or envelope stuffing.  Like a person would with ordinary employment, the victim gives their “employer” a host of personal information, such as Social Security numbers, driver's license numbers, addresses and dates of birth. The victim loses money in two ways — first by being robbed of their labor and then by being robbed of their identity. High-profit-no-risk scams are the most common way that people get roped into pyramid schemes, where the reward is contingent upon roping other people into the scam.  However, they are often straightforward theft-by-deception schemes.  The scammer solicits a loan for some investment scheme involving gemstones, oil and gas, or precious metals; however, the money loaned is never invested. The scammer may very well ask for some type of service from the victim, such as check cashing, in exchange for promises of riches.  The “investment opportunity” is often billed as a “limited time offer,” or a “once in a lifetime deal.” If any seller or solicitor uses this terminology, be very wary. It is often just a tactic to pressure the victim into acting hastily. An overpayment scam starts when someone purchases a product from a seller and overpays. These days, it almost invariably occurs online, although there are exceptions.  The scammer sends the victim a check in excess of the purchase price.  For some extremely complicated reason, the “buyer” can't simply issue a new check.  The scammer has the victim cash the check and send them the remainder (along with the goods, of course).  The check or money order that the victim has cashed is in fact not a real check, and in reality, a very convincing counterfeit. The victim's bank won't detect it right away, and therefore cashes the check; however, when they do discover the forgery, the victim is held liable for the loss. So the scammer gets the victim's goods and money. Most people who fall victim to these con jobs don't report them out of embarrassment or despair of any chance at recovery. If you fall victim to a scam, don't be this person. Alert the proper authorities. Doing so can save the next person from the scammer. While you should notify your bank and the major credit reporting agencies ( https://www.equifax.com,  https://www.transunion.com, and  https://www.experian.com ), you should also notify governmental authorities.
