such as
mail, telephone, and internet. This type of fraud is becoming a great
challenge

your local
police.
To

victim, here are a few things you should never do:
*Never
respond to any
kind of offer that requires
anything
upfront..
*Never
respond to any
kind of offer that appears “too good to be true.”

personal information.
*Never
respond to any
kind of offer that came unsolicited.
*Never
rush to
respond to anything just because it says it’s
“urgent.”
