Unemployment scams

Aug 24, 2009 16:16

Okay, scams are bad enough when aimed at people with jobs and/or income, but I just read on the Oregon Unemployment website about a scam where people steal people's ReliaCards (what they initially put the unemployment money on) to get people's personal information to steal their identities.

...

I'm confused. What's the point of stealing the identity of someone who doesn't have an income? The amount of money they'd get from that couldn't possibly justify the difficulty and the risk. I don't understand scams, and I *really* don't get this.

confusing things, scams
