Similar to the posting I found here, our church received an inquiry using our website "Contact Us" form, with the message

"Hello,

How are you doing? I am looking to give away my late husband's Yamaha baby grand piano to a passionate instrument lover, so please let me know if you will take it or have someone who will care for it.

Regards,

Charlotte Hughes."

I suspected it was a scam so I looked up the email address and found your similar posting.

Email sent to local elementary school staff offering free baby grand piano "almost new as it was played by my late husband just a couple of times before he passed." Only cost is shipping, as piano is currently in storage. Email sender said to contact mover for shipping cost and asked that it be done ASAP as they do not want to incur additional storage fees. Moving company quoted three prices (915 for 10 day, 1300 for 5 day, 1900 for 2 day) and asked for delivery address. In response to delivery address, moving company sent a request for payment through Zelle, with contact information that did not match the moving company. They claimed they would send shipment/tracking info after I sent payment.

I received an automated call saying, “this call is for —————. We will be coming to your home or place of employment to serve papers”. I did not recognize the name they had given, so I assumed immediately that it was not legitimate. I called the number back and a person, not a machine, answered the phone. I said they must of had a wrong number because I never heard of the person they were looking for. She answered, “thank you, honey”, and hung up.

I was approached about an offer to advertise for Haagendaz with a decal being put on my truck and they sent me a check for my first payment of $350 along with the amount to have the decal installed. I was told to keep the $350 and put the rest towards the installation of the decal and when I deposited the check they would send me the information to pay the company to install the decal. The email I received disappeared and I starred it and saved it so I’m thinking they have my password for my email which I’m changing. I got suspicious when the check said Klahoma City, OK so I called the Bank which is MidFirst Bank and they confirmed it was fraudulent. This company said they would pay me $350 a week to advertise the decal.

The scammer sends a letter to newly formed businesses that is styled to imitate an official government document. The letter states that federal law requires businesses to "post a current compliant labor law poster in the workplace." Of course you can buy this poster from them by sending a check or money order for $92.58 in their return envelope within 2 weeks.

Caller was a heavily accented male named "Jack" with " Senior services". He stated that I had additional benefits available to me from my " Primary Care provider".Could not tell me who my PRIMARY was and continued to tell me that services were available at no cost and a simple " mouth swab" kit would be mailed to me. At this stage I attempted to ask additional questions which he avoided. I hung up!

I tried to call the Social Security people and the phone number is really close to theirs. I missed dialed and got this other number. They asked for my email address and I gave it to them. But I think it was a recording the whole time luckily, I figured it out and hung up, but, I looked up that phone number online. It turns out they are scamming a lot of people.
