PHOENIX (3TV/CBS 5) -- Through the years, 3 On Your Side has exposed a lot of scams. Senior citizens, unfortunately, are usually targeted. But the Better Business Bureau says so are young college students.
Brianna Paredas tells 3 On Your Side that she was scammed out of $3,550 simply looking for a job.
In a previous report, Brianna explained how she thought she was hired over the Internet to be a personal assistant. But it was a cleverly-disguised scam involving a fake check that she deposited and eventually wiped out her bank account. And she's not the only one.
