Hey Everyone,
Here's another Postcard Scam
I received a green postcard stating on the top:
"SPECIAL NOTICE: Pending cash grant
claim $20,978 (DOE)"
Deliver Exculsively to: (My Name)
Then above my name and address was "CLAIMS
DOCUMENT REGISTERED TO" (My name and address)
At the bottom of the front of the card, in a
box, was:
"WARNING: $2,000 fine and/or 5 year imprisonment for
interfering or obstructing with delivery, of this letter, US MAIL
SECURITY, 1708".
On the other side of the card, at the top, was
"URGENT: READ
IMMEDIATELY."
"DELIVERED BY: Claims Department"
"DOCUMENT REGISTERED TO": (My Name)
"NOTICE: Our office is trying to reach you
r4egarding a dispersal of Government Funding ."
"STATUS: Pending."
" PLEASE INDICATE WHAT FUNDS WILL BE USED FOR":
(Small boxes for check marks with each of the following)
"Debt Pay-off"
"Business Start-up"
"Education"
"Travel"
"Home Improvement"
"Other"
Toll Free: 1-800-321-6563
