Description
I received a letter from "Ginsberg Stanley & Associates" claiming that I owe Wells Fargo $1,457.72. I've not done business with that wretched bank for over 15 years so that was the first red flag. The letter is one of the better attempts to defraud me but it still had some formatting and grammatical red flags. Be careful out there people! If you haven't already, lock down all your credit reports. My credit profile has been locked for years so when I get this stuff I don't even worry that it's legit and someone has opened accounts in my name. Freeze all scammers out by freezing your credit reports. It's free and easy. I also use LifeLock. Make scammers lives miserable by locking it all down and never falling for their attempts to rob you. If they want to waste almost $1 to mail me a letter, please feel free to send me thousands more. It will result in zero out of my pocket because this guy doesn't fall for that stuff.
