🚨 FRIDAY FRAUD FACTS 🚨
For this week's Friday Fraud Facts post, we would like to share a video with you. This video was created by Erin West, who is the founder of a coalition called Operation Shamrock. Operation Shamrock's goal is to prevent fraud & scams, and to assist victims of fraud. We encourage fraud and scam victims to visit the Operation Shamrock website at https://www.operationshamrock.org/ .
In this video, Erin West gives a tour of an overseas scam compound that was raided by that country's authorities. The video is extremely eye opening and does a great job of showing the large scale of these overseas scam centers, where many of the scams we have mentioned in previous posts originate from. Please take the 7 minutes to watch this highly informative video and as always, if you or a loved one suspects a possible scam, contact law enforcement prior to sending any money!
