A Navajo woman from Farmington, New Mexico, is the latest victim of an Internet scam.
Gloria Tso was surfing the web when she was told to enter a sweepstakes. She later received phone calls and a letter in the mail claiming she won a cash prize of $615,810. All she had to do was provide her bank account and personal information.
Tso unwittingly sent a fax with the information to a foreign number but became suspicious after receiving another phone call demanding more money. She immediately closed her bank accounts but doesn't know yet if she lost any money in the scam.
