You have just returned from a fabulous vacation when opening your mail you discover a refund check from the hotel you stayed at stating you overpaid your bill and are due a refund.
This this is one reason that you do not discuss while on vacation with a stranger at the hotel any personal information such as your hometown telephone number or address you must always be on guard for the vacation scammed.
In the check that you receive will be very authentic looking but will be more that your refund. You will be instructed to send the difference in a money order or cashiers check to the address listed. Once you have deposited the check and sent the remaining funds in a few days the check will bounce and you will be stuck with the over draft and bank charges. The simple solution is made sure the check cleareds the bank before anything is done. You might also call the hotel accounting department to see if this is a valid offer.
