Scammer wanted to give me $50,000 & needed name, address, Gender, Email Address, and Phone #. I didnt believe her and stopped communicating with her. After reading all the comments from people who've been scammed I'm so thankful I stopped answering her.

We are an animal shelter located in MA. We received a USPS Priority Mail envelope addressed from CA and the check inside was from MD. We had no contact or connection with either contact and had no reason to expect a large donation from these states, especially seeing as the check was addressed as from a hunting store

Business owner, ***** ******* of Profits First LLC., approached myself and 5 other mutual acquaintances, about a business proposition to invest in a joint/mother account that he would primarily manage. We agreed to invest in the trading account once we were persuaded and knew his business was registered with the state of Missouri. He informed us that this investment would be completed or paid within the next 3-4 months via Google Suites Platform, GoogleForms. We decided and agreed to invest $2,000.00 each, signed a google form agreement, and paid via virtual money apps like: CashApp, ApplePay, etc. Once November 2023 came, we inquired about the account and agreed upon return of profits. There was lack of communication and no responses from ***** *******. As of now, April 2024, he has failed to contact me back or return the agreed upon initial investment.

Spouse received a text. Said a check was being delivered to our house via UPS next Day Air. She was asked to notify them by text when it arrived. Then instructed to deposit the check for $5100.00 in her account and then withdraw $4100 from it to give to the "installer" that would meet with her and she would keep the extra $1000 as her fee for the promotional decal from Nestle's Pure Life that they were to put on her car for advertising purposes. Check was mailed from Texas, Business address on the check(no stub-just the bare check in a dirty manila envelope with her name on it via UPS) was 8223 Village Harbor Drive, Cornelius, NC 28031. Drawn on 'First National Bank 60-1809/433'. This bank doesn't exist as far as I can tell, and the routing number was unverifed(000005463) We blocked their number and they texted back from another number. That was blocked as well. Also noted the business name appears to have a typo('Patners') Please verify and get the word out on this scam.

check/draft/debit from Yacht Club Production in exact amount as other Louisiana person in 2022 showing on ScamPulse.com scam tracker.

Date: Sept. 2023

The copy of check/draft has my personal information.

I do not know if Chase has any intentions on researching this breach of trust in my banking experience.

I would send a copy of the 31.97 check/draft to a secure address

I received a letter from this company and they sent me a check for $3,500 to be a mystery shopper for the post office. They wanted me to deposit the check, then go to the post office and purchase 3 money orders for $985 each, and 4 books of stamps. They also asked me to contact me after I followed those steps. This seemed to be a scam.

I received a letter stating I won $250,000 and the check would be sent by USPS. The letter stated I had to pay $2,000 for processing and insurance fees. The letter stated I won because I was selected as part of a promotional draw for Walmart, Visa, MasterCard , Target, Home Depot, American Express, TJ Maxx and 7 Eleven. The letter stated I was to contact the Claims Agent Larry Mayfield before cashing the check.

wanted to use one of my photos for a painting and was going to pay me $500 for it. Sent me a check for $2400 and tried to get me to Zelle or venmo them the difference. Seemed shady even though the art account was legit and the client checked out and was super pushy about me paying them. Sent me Zelle info that didn’t match with the venmo info and the phone number they gave and name they gave me didn’t match the name of the owner of the number when I google searched it so I could tell things were getting more shady. I called them out as being a scam and they said they would never stoop so low but their English was kind of weird at that point and almost didn’t make sense so I called my bank immediately and they said the check would likely bounce and that I would be protected so long as I didn’t give them any bank account information or send them any money via cash apps. Thankfully I didn’t send them any money via cash apps and didn’t lose any money but I almost did if the whole process didn’t seem so sketchy. I blocked the account on Instagram before I reported it so unfortunately I don’t have any of the cash app handles or names and phone numbers etc.

I received a txt one night 8pm that said only "Hi". I replied they must have the wrong # b/c I didn't recognize the phone number. He replied with his name, James and a badge ID #, stating I was "basically a millionaire as of that moment, but would need to follow some steps he was sending me via email, in order to claim my check." Next txt msg from him said, I'd won 3.5 million dollars through mega million sweepstakes, but would have to pay the customs fee, which was minimal to receive 3. 5 million dollars. If i did not pay then my check would be stuck in customs. He told me to answer my phone right then he was calling to give me the info as it was less time consuming, so reluctantly I answered. My heart sank when I realized he didn't speak English. It wasn't just that he had an accident, no he was speaking another language, and only knew "hello" and the name he'd given me over txt, "James". After I hung up from the phone call he never contacted me again. Maybe he baited someone else faster as I was dragging my feet over 2 days
