*Consumer Comment: You stated "BANK DID NOT THINK ANYTHING ABOUT IT"
*Consumer Comment: Don't do anything else! THE CHECK WILL BOUNCE
This company sent me a check with instructions to get a money gram, & I deposited it to my account, but I didn't get the money gram or go shopping with 105.00, what can I do? I dont want to be scammed, but my daughter in N.M. said it was a scam! Thats why I decided to check it out on the internet & report them! I just hope it's not too late! Thank you!

You stated "BANK DID NOT THINK ANYTHING ABOUT IT"

BECAUSE YOU DID NOT ASK THE BANK AT ALL - you just deposited it straight into your account. It is not the banks responsibility to check them out - THAT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY!
If you had taken the check to the bank and ASKED THEM TO VALIDATE IT without actually depositing it- they would have told you it was bogus.
You did not do this - you just deposited it.
Your lucky you daughter stopped you from making a major mistake, because you CHOSE NOT TO CHECK IT OUT FIRST!

But bounced check fee is LESS than the money you would be out if you did what the SCAMMERS said to do.
You got off rather light.
THIS IS A VERY POPULAR SCAM.
NEVER DEPOSIT A CHECK THAT YOU WEREN'T EXPECTING AND DID NOT WORK FOR.
YOU ARE LUCKY TO HAVE A DAUGHTER WHO IS WATCHING OUT FOR YOU.
BE VERY CAREFUL ABOUT YOUR FINANCIAL INFORMATION!
ALSO YOUR PERSONAL IDENTIFICATION INFORMATION. DO NOT GIVE IT OUT OVER THE PHONE OR ON THE INTERNET!
THE COMPUTER IS A JUNGLE FULL OF SCAMS AND LIES AND SCHEMES ALL DESIGNED TO GET YOUR MONEY DISHONESTLY!
IF YOU DO NOT PUT YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION OR YOUR FINANCIAL INFORMATION ON THE INTERNET, YOU SHOULD BE OK.
IF YOU RECEIVE NOTICE THAT YOU HAVE WON A SWEEPSTAKES YOU DO NOT REMEMBER HAVING ENTERED, THEN IT IS A SCAM.
IF YOU GET A CHECK THAT YOU HAVE NOT EARNED, IT IS A SCAM!
REMEMBER, CROOKS LIKE TO PREY ON SENIOR CITIZENS! I DON'T KNOW WHY.
SO BE CAREFUL!
