Before making any large cash withdrawal,
please consider the following questions:
- Have I been approached by a stranger?
- Have I been shown an envelope or
package of cash?
- Have I been told I am a lottery
winner?
- Have I been told of an unexpected
inheritance or other surprise windfall?
- Have I been told not to tell anyone
about this transaction?
- Have I been told this transaction
must be made right now, without delay?
- Have I been promised a large return
later for putting money down now?
- Is somebody waiting outside for
me after I withdraw cash?
If you can answer
"yes" to even one of the questions above, you may be a victim
of fraud. If this is the case, permit your financial institution
to contact law enforcement before proceeding with the transaction.
