Am I being scammed?

If you have been asked to send money or prepaid cards to someone you don’t know, go to the Federal Trade Commission's (FTC) scam alert website to help you determine if the request is a scam. You can browse scams by topic, sign up for alerts, and get more information on the latest scams.
