Type of a scam Fake Check/Money Order
Initial means of contact Internet messaging (e.g., WhatsApp)
Individual contacted me posing as a member of the U.S. Air Force deployed overseas. Pictures were sent to me of a female in USAF uniform that were obtained from a real USAF member’s Instagram account. Individual stated she was about to receive and inheritance soon after returning to the states. Individual also informed me her “lawyer” was advancing her a large sum of the inheritance so she could purchase some “Gold & Jewries” before leaving the country. She solicited me to open a checking account at my bank and deposit the check her “lawyer” was mailing to me. Her “lawyer” mailed me three blank checks, which immediately raised a red flag. I will be contacting USPS postal inspectors to alert them of this mail fraud.
Received three blank checks from Vital Voices Global Partnership Inc
The address listed them at the following address

Recieved a check in mail for child support for $4,989 from Bank of America. I thought is was a legitimate check & I deposited just to find out it was a fraud…
