⚠️ Scam Awareness Tip: Beware of Overpayment Scams! ⚠️
Scammers “accidentally” send you too much money (via check, PayPal, or other transfers) and ask you to refund the extra amount. The catch? Their payment is fake, but your refund is real.
🚨 Red Flags:
❌ Someone “overpays” you out of nowhere.
❌ They insist you send back the difference ASAP.
❌ The payment method is a check or reversible transfer.
❌ The check later bounces, leaving you with a loss.
✅ How to Stay Safe:
✔ Never refund money from an overpayment.
✔ Verify payments before sending anything back.
✔ If it’s a check, wait until it fully clears (this can take weeks).
✔ Report suspicious transactions to your bank or platform.
If someone “overpays” and asks for money back—it’s likely a scam! Stay alert! 🚨 #ScamAwareness #USCryptoCop
