Today I was contacted by a constituent who had fallen prey to a scam involving international money transfers.

I urge all constituents to be very careful when it comes to foreign businesses/individuals asking for any personal information or money.

Please report any suspicious emails/letters to ScamNet (a WA State Government body) by visiting their website:
