I received in the mail on November 22, a letter and a check for $1,795.33 from this company called W.M. Logline Corp. There were a few tells within this letter that shouted out Ripoff! While reading the letter, I saw many grammatical errors. That was the main tipoff that this letter came from a scammer. The second tell was the phone number. Since I live in Arkansas, a 480 area code does not exist. The third tell is a supposed address. There is a number, 702, but a street name is not listed. The next tell was being a secret shopper in Western Union.
Since I was almost scammed as a secret shopper once before, I recognized the use of Western Union. A woman in my area fell for the scam and was recently arrested for money laundering using Western Union. Also, I recognized the name Mary White, director of operations. That was the same name used through an attempted email scam. So for everyone who reads this, don't fall for this scam. They will steal you blind if you cash the check or deposit it into your checking account. Also, if you deposit the check into your checking account, you run the risk of identity theft. Think about it. Tear up the letter and the check. Report it. These idiots need to be stopped!
