Press Office, Press Release: AG Fisher Issues Warning About Nigerian Counterfeit Cashier's Check Scheme; Victims Include PA Residents
Fisher urges consumers to be extremely skeptical of any e-mails from Nigeria or Africa offering to purchase items online with a U.S. bank cashier's check. Online sellers are also urged to avoid contact with individuals asking you to send or wire money abroad. Victims of the cashier's check scam are asked to immediately contact the U.S. Secret Service at (202) 406-5850 or write to: U.S. Secret Service, Financial Crimes Division, 950 H Street, NW, Washington, D.C. 20223. Complaints can also be filed electronically by visiting www.secretservice.gov/contact_fcd.shtml. Information on reporting Nigerian scams is also available on Fisher's website at www.attorneygeneral.gov. Investigators believe this latest scam is organized by the same con-artists responsible for the mass e-mails that have been sent to individuals and/or businesses since the 1980s. In that scam, those contacted were promised a one-third cut of $60 million if they would provide a U.S. bank account number where the money cou ... [Read More]

The term commonwealth had greater political meaning back in the time of Oliver Cromwell, when the British Parliament declared that government by a king was "unnecessary, burdensome, and dangerous," and further declared that the British nation would then on be a commonwealth, or free state. To be a commonwealth meant that all power was vested in and derived from a equally free and independent people rather than a hierarchical and/or feudal system under a king. The basis for a commonwealth's success required each citizen to be an active participant in government, practitioners of civic virtue and socially responsible. The government essentially was to serve the people, rather than having the people serve the government. ... [Read More]
