Protect Yourself from Fraud

effectively like sending cash. Once it has been wired, it cannot be returned. To avoid being scammed, use common sense and follow
these tips.
Always:
- Know who
you’re dealing with
- Research
any offer before buying
Never:
- Send money
to anyone you don’t know
- Wire money
to someone you think you know who is supposedly in a crisis, before
checking the story and identity first
- Send money
to receive money
If you have been scammed:
- Report the
incident immediately to your local police station
- Contact MoneyGram 1-800-MONEYGRAM
