Fraud Warning About Your Money Transfer

Keep your money safe. If any of the following apply, DO NOT MAKE the money transfer. It is a scam and someone is trying to steal your money. If you send money, it can be paid out quickly and you may not be able to get a refund.

1. Never transfer money to a stranger. Know who you are dealing with. A money transfer is like cash.
2. Never send money under the following circumstances:
   • To make a charitable donation or pay for supplies to an internet seller during a pandemic, natural disaster, or other crisis.
   • To receive money (e.g., lottery prizes, other awards, job offers, or loans).
   • To make a payment to a government tax authority or the police.
   • To buy a car, a puppy, another unique or high-value item, or to make a deposit on a home.
3. Never send money without verifying the story. First, contact that friend or family member who you heard needs help.
4. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably isn't.
5. Never give your transaction reference number to anyone other than the person you want to receive the money. Sellers and telemarketers cannot accept money transfer payments from people in the United States for something they sell through telemarketing.
