I just saw this and was wondering if you guys knew if there were any other known scams out there that targeted the military community.

Military Vets Targeted by Sophisticated Job Scheme

Air Force veteran Mark Blum went through weeks of training and face to face interviews for a promising job opportunity, but instead of getting a paycheck, he was left on the brink of bankruptcy.

I think every car dealership around base targets military personnel, just cause they know they are young dumb and have expendable income.
