As the economy sours and times get tougher, scams and “shady offers” will definitely be on the increase. When it comes to finding out if something is legitimate, the Internet is your best friend.
I can recognize most scams on sight, but even I did a double-take earlier this week when I received an official-looking mailer that had misleading information about property taxes and… you guessed it… asking for payment to lower those taxes. (There was even a penalty fee for not returning payment by a cutoff date.)
How To Find Out If It’s A Scam In About 10 Seconds
- Type the name of the company into Google (in quotes)
- Type the headline of the offer into Google (in quotes)
Usually, that’s all it takes. In the above example, the company name turned up the entire scanned-in letter, with comments from others about how misleading it was.
Don’t get scammed, check it out!
