ONLINE SELLER SCAMS Online seller or "overpayment" scams are increasingly targeting seniors. As noted in Forbes , 82 percent of seniors now use online banking more frequently, and 91 percent are more comfortable with online communication. 5 Scammers take advantage of sellers by overpaying. They agree to buy items and send checks or money orders for substantially more than the agreed-upon price. They then ask sellers to forward the excess balance to someone else by wire transfer. Sellers deposit the money, send the balance difference and are then told by their bank that the original check or money order was fake, leaving them out of hundreds or even thousands of dollars. WHAT TO DO Proceed with caution—Some buyers may ask to pay with a payment app or check. Continue the transaction only with those you trust. Additionally, whenever possible, buy or sell from a website that offers protections to all parties involved. If a buyer or seller tries to persuade you to go outside the site’s usual process or payment methods, that’s a red flag. Scammers are doing everything they can to grab your personal information, solicit fake donations and even overpay for purchases to compromise your finances. Don't fall for their tricks. Always ask questions, think critically, get confirmation and double-check everything to stop them in their tracks.
