College students should beware of potential scheming swindlers
(FOX BUSINESS) – The fall college semester is starting again, which means students across the nation are preparing to dole out tons of money on tuition payments and school supplies again.
Unfortunately, it's a prime opportunity for scammers to try to rob students of that money through various schemes, according to the Better Business Bureau. The nonprofit organization, dedicated to creating an ethical marketplace, warned students ahead of the school year to be wary of various tactics scammers may use to steal their money or identity.
Some of these tactics could be phishing emails claiming to be from a university or college's financial department or fake emails directing students to sign in to a link with their student credentials.
