Warning to all Spokane Citizens of a recent Scam in the Way of a Letter that follows.
I checked when this came to my e-mail home address, at www.yellowpages.com
and looked up the address to compare it to see if there were any flaws, or missing parts, and found only the Business Name, Address, and Phone Number were the Same, but When I called the 1-800 # and got ahold of Their Customer Service Rep. Susan gave me this Number for all Bank of Americas Wire Transfer Department, and they there did NOT recognize the name Jesus Reed. And told me if it had been at their Bank The E-Mail address for All Reps would have had his Name, and BAML.com at the end.
So this following letter is a FRAUD, SCAM, and delete it or anything that asks for Money. Any Amount of Money Being Asked of You is a Scam. Period. Even MSN.com or Microsoft has scam recognization Programs that say that the e-mail is a Fraud, and does not allow it to go through. They send an error Failed to send emial back to you telling you by the failure that it is Fraud.
Here are the Three ways [ Updates will be in the Future. ] I always stay safe here at home.
? 1. What does the http://www.yellowpages.com have to say about the Banks Street Address, Number, Street, Avenue, City, State, Zip Code, and Phone Number.
? 2. Is there anything missing from the information that says that This Person named in this Department is NOT From this Bank.
? 3. When You call the Bank, or Instatutions 1-800 # that www.yellowpages.com gives you Does the Bank Recognize or NOT Recognize that Persons Name, and E-mail Address.
? 4. When looking at the Bank e-mail return address. It should look like this
jesusreed@baml.com which stands for jesusreed@bankofamericaMerralLinch.com , but they shortened to baml.com for short and easy access for memory purposes.
Rules #1.
Always, Always, Always Check before You write or try to write back to this so called Banking Assistant Manager.
Rules #2.
NEVER, NEVER, NEVER give ANY MONEY TO ANYONE saying they need this in order for them to send You the needed Paperwork to get You this Money. They will even make You feel guilty or Stupid by their clever ploys to draw out Your Money out of Your Wallet, in Any Amount.
They will always keep you engaged till they can not get anything out of You. Remember that They have enough money, and Can carry You to the finish [IF] They say They are LAWYER, BANK, DOCTOR, HOMELAND SECURITY, FBI, CIA, NIA, FDIC, it doesn't matter who they say they are.
Don't give these, or anybody like them who has a job, and can hold and receive the payment AFTER You have received Your payment. Period. Follow these two rules every time, and you will never be scammed again.
You will save your money, Your Home, Your Good Self Esteem, Your Life, Happiness, and Good Mental Health. Below is an Exact written copy of the same letter I got but I didn't give that persons e-mail address for Security Purposes.
It is always about the Money coming to them, Not to You. So follow the above 2 rules to stay safe. Post it on Your Computer, and Be safe dear neighbor. Lily
