Hi Scumbag

Welcome to Scamwarners

Scumbag is a name I normally use for the thieves we deal with and not our new members but as you please

Wow! I am so ecstatic that a website with INTEGRITY, such as yours, actually exists! I am sitting here feeling like a DUMBASS,teary eyed and a little weepy,because I ALMOST got suckered into a scam involving receiving a bogus check,cashing it and wiring funds from a SOB illegally! I had that "gut feeling" that something stunk-especially when my 19 year old son said,"If it sounds too good to be true...",you know the rest! Well,I googled the senders name(fake) address(liar) and BAM! My savior! Your website popped up with numerous other users who had been ALMOST suckered too! By the same a-hole! By now,I'm feeling not so stupid-thank you all for your honesty! I shut it it down asap! But my question is this,should I contact the business person of which the counterfit check was issued? I did notice,thanks to your awesome website( #2)that their business had been used previously by same perpetrator! Same scumbag running fake check(sent via UPS to MY residence)! I feel an obligation to notify this individual and possibly send him incriminating evidence! I'm new @ this sad state of affairs! Please feel free to render any advice-you have my utmost respect and trust(something that I will not offer in the future on Craig's List!I know they're not to blame,it's my naivete!) By the way,the buttwipe's name is..Jerry Johnson 1923 Morena Blvd. San Diego, Ca. 92110.Turns out that is a beauty college that ? uses as sender address from UPS! Maybe they should be contacted too? Love to hear from any1! AR

Hi and welcome here. Thank you so much for taking the time to post and tell us your story. I'm thrilled that it was a near miss rather than a story of you having lost a bunch of money. No need to feel stupid or embarrassed; good for you for following your instinct and doing research. Us publishing the info is only part of the solution. People like you taking the time to search and finding it is the key.

Yes, you should contact the business whose checking account is compromised. They may already be aware but there is no harm in getting in touch with them in case they aren't. I'm not sure about the address you posted. Is that where the check was mailed from? That may be another victim. If that is who mailed you the check, please remove those details from your post and send them to anyone on the support team via our private messaging system. We will research to see if they match up with a real person and try to warn them.

Please also post the information about the scammer (email address, early emails, etc) on the existing thread about him if you have any new information.

It's always such a fuzzy feeling to know this website was useful!

As already said, don't feel stupid, those people are quite good at what they are doing (i.e. causing emotionnal and financial pain).

Now spread the word, post everything you have on the scammer, and someday another potential victim may be saved thanks to the informations you can provide.

Hi AR,

We get just as much a feeling of relief as people like yourself when you find info on this site that has helped you to avoid being scammed To echo the excellent advice that you've already received, it would be a good idea to get in contact with the nominated "payer" indicated on the check. It is quite possible that the person who sent the fake check to you is also a victim of a fake job scam. We see this all too often.

Thank you for posting your account here.

I suspect this is the scammers information - see this post here;
