Bogus Prizes/Telemarketing Fraud
Bogus prizes and sweepstakes are still the most frequent telemarketing
frauds reported. Nigerian money offer scams rose to the top ten in 2001.
Canada accounts for over 50 percent of fraudulent prize/sweepstakes
companies. Advance fee loan scams are also rising -- please be careful
when you pay up front for something -- you may never receive the goods.
