My sister lost a bank account for having a fraudulent check from on of those things but she was like 17 and my parents were mad telling her that u dont get paid for a job u didnt do yet
I just got scammed for 1,318 dollars,the check was for 2,365 an I was to keep $300 I was supposed to shop an buy bitcoins , my bank didn't pick up on it even though they had it for 6 days , now I owe 1,318 I'm in ssi an thier going to take my checks , I'm so stupid . I'm warning everyone. I have no idea what to do now.
What would have happened if you would have cashed the check somewhere other then your. Like walmart or a random check cashing place? You could have just taken the money, right?
@@kingsupreme25 the check was cleared so all of it was available to me, an no because its a cashiers check made out to look like its from an actual real bank my bank paid them back an now i have to pay my bank back , an the check had a restriction on it saying it can only be lifted when deposited maybe because walmart or a check cashing place wouldve picked up on it sooner, then banks do, which makes me doubt my bank for not having proper protection against check fraud . its almost 2021 an its still available for these demon spawns to hack our banking systems . smh , even if i am naive enough to believe this scam my bank had the check for 6 days before releasing it ,an no one picked up on it till day 7 smh i wouldve just taken the money i wouldve done my job
@@sayittomyfaceortapglassfar4392one is trying to get me fired rn for not sMiLiNg enough they really are a waste of time money and they try to ruin your income just because they were given a tiny bit more power over you.
just got one in mail.. im awaiting ssd so of course broke but kinda figured because i didnt recognize the name of company BUT the routing number is right for the citizens banks so either they got smarter or its real and i threw it away hmm lolol
They probably ask you to send them the gift cards that you buy with the money that's supposed to be coming out of the check.... and then the check bounces.
@@42Longlegs that makes sense... but they give u a check to take money out for yourself and money to purchase the products lol... Like... ur gonna know what's up when u try to cash the check 1st. Where's the scam? 🤣
@@kingsupreme25 If you're part of the 95% or people who cash the check first like a sensible person then yeah, they failed to scam you. But it's the 5% that don't that they're going to make $1,850 dollars off of. They don't need many people to fall for it when the stakes are so high to make it worth it.
No eveyone “cashes” the check first. By cashing, they deposit into their account. It takes a few days got the check to clear even if the money is already showing in your account balance. A couple days later, the check bounces and you’re responsible for all of the money you spent on gift cards.
Cheers for this, I've been looking for "how do i become a mystery shopper for free" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you ever come across - Giyaliyah Peyila Principle - (do a google search ) ? Ive heard some great things about it and my co-worker got excellent results with it.

no legit company will ever ask you for gift cards.
Or use six exclamation points in their email.
That sounded like a scam as soon as they said gift card.
no one will give you money for nothing.
I spent a night in jail falling for this in 2016. Tried to cash it in to a bank
