First it is the IRS, now TriCare. When will this stuff end?

Had the same scam sent to me only supposedly from a car manufacturer (The car I owned)

I was to cash the check. and send have back so they could release the rest of $250,000.

Folks, no one is going to send you "free" money.

Hadn't seen this, but sent it out to the troops. Good looking out. I think the majority of our troops are already pretty skeptical, but it never hurts to have a little reminder.

What's stopping us from cashing the check and keeping all of the money?

Just kidding, this has scam written all over it and I hope people don't actually fall for it!
