Telemarketing Fraud V

OK - another aspect of telemarketing fraud that is being used with greater frequency.

     One aspect of telemarketing fraud involves a type of lottery fraud (this type of fraud will be discussed further in another post in the future).  Telemarketers that are engaged in a certain type of fraud will inform the mark that a prize will be delivered to his house.  However, the key is that something will be delivered to the mark's house asking for information

    Many telemarketer fraudsters are aware that people are hesitant about giving personal or financial information over the phone.  They also know that it is easier to get this information in person because of the direct connection that is established from face-to-face contact.  Therefore, if the purpose of the telemarketing call appears to be to get your permission to allow someone to visit your house, you should be suspect.

    We will continue this conversation in the future.
