Summary
GUILFORD -- Police are warning residents about a fraud scheme. In the fraud, police say, people receive fake cashier checks or money orders in the mail. The recipients are instructed to deposit the checks in their bank accounts, withdraw the money and wire it to a location in Canada. Once the money has been sent and the bank discovers that the check is fake, the person who withdrew the money is then responsible for it.
The checks come from an Internet company called Maximum Paid Surveys, according to police. Police are encouraging residents to verify checks and money orders with their banks before depositing them.See the full content of this document
