Scentsy - Email Order Scam 
 Scammer
  Information
Name:
Melissa Sanders
Email Address:
melissasanders112910@gmail.com
I was contacted via email to place a Scentsy order for Melissa Sanders for an upcoming family event. She told me that her uncle was sending a check to me, but it was for way over her order amount. Her order was only $250.28, but I received a check for $950. I received the check proirity two-day mail (with a tracking number). She later told me she was undergoing chemo therapy, and needed me to mail her the additional money that was sent my mistake. She asked that the order be sent to 3920 Frontier Lane, Dallas, TX 75214. I immediately contacted my bank about the scam, and WILL NOT be cashing or depositing the check.

Since you’re here …
we have a small favour to ask. More people are visting Scamdex and Scamalot than ever but advertising revenues are falling fast and we have no 'product' to sell. And unlike many informational websites, we haven’t put up a paywall or membership barrier – we want to keep our site as open as we can. So you can see why we need to ask for your help. Scamdex/Scamalot websites takes a lot of time, money and hard work to keep running. We do this because we hate to see our fellow humans getting scammed out of their hard-earned money by low-lives.
