Telemarketing and Mail Fraud


Telemarketing Scams

You’re a winner! Have you ever heard that line over the telephone? Prize offers are one of the many types of telemarketing scams around today. You should always be leery of any telephone call where the person at the other end asks for personal information like your Social Security number, mother’s maiden name, or a credit card number. 

Mail Faud
You may think that leaving mail in your mailbox overnight is safe, but it’s not. Your mailbox is actually an easy target for crooks. If you feel that you are a victim of mail identity theft, call your local Postal Inspection Service office and your local police.
