By questioning everything.\nIf its with a company,make sure the company exists.\nMake sure the person you arein contact with to works for the company(dont accept their phone number...find the company number yourself)\n.\n.\nQuestion EVERY detail.\nDo not ask for information from the site...find it yourself..\n\nDo a WHOIS on the site... http://www.dnsstuff.com/\nThis will give you a lot of information on the site in question

The appears to be a scam out there that is using the name of textile companies.  Be careful.  If you think you are going to get free money, run the other way.

It is difficult to help you as you have provided virtually no helpful information.  However, if the scam was perpetrated online, and you are in the United States, you can contact the FBI online scam center and file a complaint.  There are other good resources there to help you.

report it, but it's probally coming from nigera, as so many of these fake postal money order/ casher checks ect come from, good luck hunting them down, they are really good at doing this. the him thanks for the fake m.o, don't be foolish enough to cash it. turn the m.o to postal inspector and let them deal with it.

you can google their name, or any info they give. \ncheck out "Anywho" website, that will give addresses for people and you can check that too. One guy I chatted with told me he went to a university, so I checked out their website, and the info he was giving was legit. If you want to pay money, you can get reports on people from various websites, but I don't know if they are scams or not.

Go to the real website for the company they're spoofing.  Most large firms now (like banks, in addition to PayPal and eBay, above) have links to where you can report or forward phishing emails.  The owner of the spoofed site (I have been targeted by spoofers of Bank of America, Chase Manhattan, and CitiBank) have a better chance of getting the sites shut down than a third party.

"The United States Federal Trade Commission has issued a consumer alert about the Nigerian scam. It says: "If you receive an offer via email from someone claiming to need your help getting money out of Nigeria — or any other country, for that matter — forward it to the FTC at spam@uce.gov."\n\nThe United States Department Of The Treasury advises "You may also email the 419er documents, especially any banking data they may have given you, marked as described above, to Task Force Main in DC 419.fcd@usss.treas.gov; that is also acceptable."

There's that many scams that it would be impossible for any one site to list them all.  The advice I usually give to people is to type the name of the product/service into a search engine and see what results come up.  In the majority of cases if it's a scam someone, somewhere will be on to it and there'll be helpful pages available.\n\nThere's certain signs that help to indicate if a website is a scam or not.  If it's a reputable organization that's behind it then the site should include full contact info including e-mail, phone and address details.  If a site isn't prepared to provide this information then I'd be suspicious.\n\nYou can also see which other sites link to it - use Yahoo search and enter the word link followed by a colon (:) followed by the URL of the website, this will show which other sites are linking in and this is often a good indication as to the reliability of a site.\n\nIf you're suspicious then e-mail them first (preferably using a one-off web-based e-mail address) and ask them to provide you with confirmation that they're a legitimate concern.\n\nIf there's a particular site or sites you might want to post another question specifying the sites concerned.

Sounds like a scam.\n\nContact the FBI.  If the Internet was involved, report it to their Internet crimes unit.

It's practically impossible to stop international Internet scams.  As you can see from the link below, the FBI is very much aware of them.  Just think before you click any links or contact anyone from suspicious emails.\n\nhttp://www.fbi.gov/majcases/fraud/fraudschemes.htm

Just by looking at it, you can't.  You actually have to check the number aganst the name.  There are a few websites that can help, but they're typically pay sites.  Sorry...

Check to see if Canada has a better business bureau and check the company out.  \n\nI ask soooo many questions I generally piss the scammers off and they just leave me alone.  A legit business answers all my questions and gives me phne numbers so I can check up on them.  I tell them rightout " I will be checking up on you, and until then we will not be doing business"  again, scammers hang up on me!\n\nAsk for their business ID. number(any country should have some sort of business tax number), and customer service phone number.  Tell them you will get back to them after you have checked them out, and throw in there that if they do not come up clean then your lawyer will be in touch.\n\nWorks for me everytime !!

Check all your credit cards and your accounts.  Check your credit rating.  Advise your bank about what is happening.  Respond to all these offers by letting them know that there is no such person at this address and that someone is using your address without your permission.
