My daughter,a well educated,smart,middle aged woman came VERY close to being scammed-———through a Craig’s list ad.
These scammers are very good.

My wife recently got a call from a scammer claiming to be the IRS...I must be a hard case, I got a call from the IRS about 30 years ago. Told the guy anybody could call me claiming that. After looking up the number and calling back I found out it was real.

My Mom told a story of how an ad in a magazine (in the late ‘40s) offered the secret to breast development for only 50 cents.....one of her girlfriends bit..... and received a picture of a man’s hand......

"How in the world is anyone stupid enough to fall for these scams?" They are likely greedy and lack ethics more than anything. I keep reading stories of educated people that fall for this scam. Or as I tell my son sometimes, there are people filled with knowledge but lack wisdom and a moral compass.
BTW - I finally got my Nigerian scam email about a year ago. I was feeling left out. I also got the Microsoft call from India about a virus on my computer. I'm trying to collect he entire set!
