STUDENT ALERT

 

Illegal Money Exchanges

 

This is to inform you of an illegal activity primarily taking place through the Internet that has led to legal difficulties for at least two of our students.  This activity involves the receipt or payment of cash solicited through an appeal over the Internet or any other means of communication.   This is an illegal activity being closely monitored by U.S. authorities that will result in the arrest of anyone participating.  

 

Whereas this is primarily an Internet scheme, you are cautioned not to enter into any deals involving the exchange of money that do not adhere to the laws of the United States.
