"Snail mail" is still a popular way enticing people. In one recent case, people across North America received fraudulent letters and checks supposedly from the "Ontario Lottery and Gaming Commission."
Recipients were told that they'd won $170,000 and were instructed to deposit an accompanying check for a lesser amount into their bank. Those checks were to refund a "service charge" of the same amount that recipients were told to pay when they called the "service representative" as instructed. The victims' checks would "finalize the payment process" and "register the claims," the scammer promised, reminding victims that they had already been reimbursed.
Needless to say, the deposited checks didn't clear, the $170,000 never showed up and the victims' payments were long gone. This scam can strike people of all ages and occupations.
E-mail as a gateway
