Has someone offered you a huge sum of money or a valuable consignment? It's a 419 or advance fee fraud - find out how they work, and what to do to be safe.

Hi, I'm new; found this site/forum because I got a very scam-like message on Tumblr.

B/c I can't get the image to work. :P

I'm smart enough to know that a 9 stuck into the middle of BestBuy isn't going to take me to BestBuy. If you go there, you're promised a $1000 gift card. :P

I'm so used to scams being through mail, e-mail, phone calls, and Facebook that it's weird to see them popping into my Tumblr inbox.

Welcome to Scamwarners.
The site I use for checking websites seems to be down, so I can't look it up at the moment. Possibly it is harvesting email addresses, but it's certainly best avoided.
