Money Mule Scams

Using a money mule is considered a type of money laundering where a person receives and moves funds that come from illegal sources like fraud and other criminal activities. Unfortunately, some money mules are actually victims who are just lured into such activity through scams. 

They are just deceived by fraudsters by offering them "easy money" and other opportunities that may seem like legitimate.

Here's how not to become a victim of Money Mule scams

1. Do not accept fund transfer or send requests from unknown person or company.
2. Do not lend or share your bank account details to anyone for moving or receiving money.
3. Never share your bank account information with unknown person or source.
4. Always think twice if an offer is too good to be true. Especially, when an offer is given in exchange of your bank account information.
