Welcome to FRAUD FYI, your blog about internet scams.
I am a nobody. I am a stay-at-home mom but before this life, I worked in the web industry for 13 years. During my career I saw scams as they went from little-known areas of the world to exploding into an epidemic that can affect anyone, anywhere.
Scammers target anyone that they think they can get money out of. A victim could be you, someone you know, the rich, the poor, the old, the young. Scammers don't care who they target, they only care what they can get out of someone. I decided to do something about it and that is why I created this blog.
FRAUD FYI is a blog that does nothing but provide information about scammers to the public. I gather information everyday and post it here. I post scammers emails, email addresses, fake photos, new scams, old scams ... anything that comes across my email addresses. I do this because even though there are many great sites providing this information, one more site with this information could be enough to prevent someone from falling victim to another scammer.
I post the newest emails I receive and any information I can gather in the hopes that someone will do an internet search on an email they received and will find this and other sites that warn them of the scam. Every little bit helps, I'm told, and if I can prevent just one person from becoming a victim to these low-life people that don't care one iota as a human being, then I feel like I've accomplished something in my spare time.
Stay safe out there on the internet and I hope that you find my blog helpful.
