Paycheck nearly stolen in payroll scam, Kansas police warn public
KSN 16
BELLE PLAINE, Kan. (KSNW) — The Belle Plaine Police Department is warning about a payroll scam.
The department says an employer received an email claiming to be from an employee requesting their direct deposit information be changed to a GreenDot account. While Green Dot is a legitimate online-only bank, the email was not actually sent by the employee.
Belle Plaine police say the employer only discovered it was a scam when they mentioned the banking change directly to the employee. They then contacted the police.
