Note : Cyber begging can be a good way to ask for help, but please be careful. The safest way to receive donations is through a secure method like PayPal. (i.e - the Begslist Help Board using a PayPal button). PayPal is the safest way to protect yourself from getting scammed and it can accept credit cards and e-checks. If anyone wants to send you a check, just ask them to send you an e-check through PayPal.
Things to look out for when receiving emails from people offering to help:
- Check the sender's country or location through their email address or where they say they are from. Most SCAMS come from Nigeria, Benin, United Kingdom (UK), Japan, Liberia and other African countries. Also, if they type their email in ALL CAPITAL LETTERS....it most likely is a SCAM!
- If someone asks you to give them money first..IT IS A SCAM! If they want to send you a check and then ask that you send a portion of the money back...IT IS A SCAM! If you deposit these checks, after 10 business days your bank will return the check back to you with a big red stamp on it that says, COUNTERFEIT.
- If someone emails you and asks for your full contact information...IT IS A SCAM! (i.e. - "YOUR FULL NAME, PHONE AND FAX NUMBER,ADDRESS WERE YOU WANT THEM TO SEND MONEY TO, YOUR AGE AND CURRENT OCCUPATION, A COPY OF YOUR IDENTITY ATTACHED TO E-MAIL")
- If they say they are a Chairman, Deputy, President, Doctor, offers a Business Proposal or say you won a Lottery and ask for your FULL NAME and other contact information it is a SCAM.
