On December 30, a couple came into the Justice Center to report fraud. The woman stated she started talking to someone from North Carolina on Facebook in reference to an Apple Computer for sale. She stated that the person did not want money for the computer but wanted her to pay the shipment cost and then they would send her the computer. She sent $104 on Zellepay to the person but never received the computer.

This is a very common scam. Please use caution when buying something from someone you do not know.
