All of these are scams that are very old and very poorly done. All you have to do is check with the bank of the check that was issued to find out that the routing number or account doesn't exist. It is very easy to purchase check paper. Anytime anyone needs you to send them money to get something it is a scam. The old saying still holds tre..if it sounds too good to be true, it is. I feel sorry for anyone that has fell victim to this criminal activity.


2007-03-14 11:11:19 -
i need information on all of these lottery scams and why are they still existing.


2007-03-14 10:32:43 -
