Have you ever been scammed?

Started by rph2go 2 years ago Add a comment

I just got a "check" in the mail for $2800, and I'm told I actually "won" $200,000. I can cash it in if I send $800 who-knows-where. Of course, then they'll send me the rest of my "winnings". Anything similar ever happen to you?

There were at least 3 places, that we know of, where wires were diverted from our electrical outlets to power the small complex's parking lot lights and sprinklers. Not that the power company would do anything about that after it has been passed through their meter. They still get paid, right? [show less] Add a comment	Vote! 2 votes 39 pts

[show more] The price tag was just a little too good to be true, and I took my chances. The cd cover was Ink-jet quality, and the bottom of the CD had that bluish, cd-r look. I got my money back throught the credit card company. They took the product and my records to prosecute the seller. [show less] 1 Comment	Vote! 1 votes 20 pts
