- In case you weren't listening to KBS this morning, there is a new scam where your phone rings and someone says to push #1 if you want to lower your interest rates, and push #3 if you don't want to hear from us again.....
2. Also, EMil got called with the old "You've won a 4 day trip to Orlando Florida" They were taping the conversation so they could play it back to Visa when you tell them your Visa number over the phone ...ACHHHHH! No Visa numbers over the phone...ever!
Don't believe a word of it... Annette's friend added up the costs to her...about $2000.00 and that was before she actually accepted the trip. Often the accomodation isn't available, so they put you in a more expensive hotel and you get to pay the costs.
3. If anyone calls to donate to the Police fund so that you can send a child to a circus...chances are very good, that no child will ever go to any circus
4. Lastly, before you donate, do a google search on the name whom you are donating to and check the comments.. ALthough a lot of names sound familiar, they may be copy cat names that are scamming you.
In any event becautious and as they say...if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
And the latest one I received by mail was to buy Lottery tickets in the German Lottery... I don't think so... Be Afraid... Be very Afraid... then be smart!
