Update on a scammer
THIS IS AN UPDATE TO A SCAMMER BRUCE ATKINS. HE IS NOW POSING AS FRED THOMPSON USING A PHONE NUMBER: 850-757-0016 WHEN HE TEXTS YOU. HIS SCAM NOW IS HE SENDS YOU A CASHIER'S CHECK FOR $1,980.16 FOR AN ITEM(S) YOU POSTED FOR SALE AND THEN ADDS THERE ARE OTHER FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS TO SATISFY (GOOD WAY FOR ONE TO ACCESS ALL YOUR FINANCIAL INFORMATION) THE LATEST SCAM IS A CASHIER'S CHECK FROM A GIRL'S NAME WHO IS THE REMITTER AND THE CASHIER'S CHECK COMES FROM AN INSURANCE COMPANY IN A 2 DAY USPS ENVELOPE. I CALLED THAT INSURANCE COMPANY AND THEY VERIFIED IT WAS NOT ISSUED BY THEM AND THE REMITTER WAS FAKE AND THE SIGNATURE ON THE CHECK WAS NOT CLEARLY LEGIBLE OR SIGNED BY A REPRESENATIVE OF THAT INSURANCE COMPANY. THEN HE TEXTS YOU TO SEE IF YOU GOT THE CHECK IN THE MAILBOX AND CASHED IT. THIS GUY IS POSING AS SEVERAL OTHER PEOPLE ON THE QTH SITE SO BEWARE OF WHO YOUR DEALING WITH.
