i've gotten scammed before. Mind you , i couldn't figure out why i fell for that. I guess it was because it was a "Work from Home" and i was out of a job.

Was in Melbourne and answered an ad for Work From Home. They told me they needed me to help them send money to an Australian company they know , but need to send little bit to evade tax(some sort of BS , cant really remember what it was)

anyway they transfer AUD2k into my account. The next day , *bang* my whole bank account got locked. Went to the police , they told me it was money laundering scheme. Cost me 2-4 weeks before i could take out my money. Lucky i had 2 bank accounts and the one i used was my 2nd one.

So whenever i see another "Work from home" thingie that promises 2-3k per month , i immediately report to police.
