TIP OF THE WEEK
Phishing scams can occur through e-mail or letter indicating in that you have won a lottery. The letter/e-mail indicates that you have won this lottery, usually from some foreign country and all you have to do is either send them a “nominal” fee to cover taxes and they will forward the money. Other times they will send you a cashiers check for you to cash with a request to send them back a portion to cover these taxes/handling fees. These checks are counterfeit and like the letters/e-mails, will most likely contain grammatical errors.
