For our enterprise-level services, users can now subscribe in multiple ways that now include customizable push notifications:

Fraudulent Email Alert: Tutor – February 16, 2017

By kbeattie on February 16, 2017

If you get this message, DO NOT reply and DO NOT provide any personal information. Delete the email. The email is part of an overpayment scam. The scammer will send the victim a fraudulent cheque for an amount greater than what was agreed upon then ask for a “refund”. The scammer is counting on the victim sending the “refund” before discovering the cheque was fraudulent and did not clear at the bank.

Hello,
How are you doing today? My name is Frisch Vermon. I came
across your e-mail at the University of British Columbia,
Department of Chemistry under Graduate Student’s portal.
I seek for a private tutor for my Daughter. I would like to
know if you would be available for the job and I would
provide you with more details my daughter.

I would also like the lessons to be at your location. Kindly let me
know your policy with regard to the fees, cancellations,
location and make-up lessons. Also, get back to me with your
area of specialization and any necessary information you
think that might help.

Once you confirm your availability, I would provide you with more helping
details. The lessons can start by 3rd of March.

Looking forward reading from you.

Best regards,
Frisch.
