40 Scams People Over 40 Should Stop Falling For

11. The Bill Gates Scam

Similar to the sweepstakes scam, this one tells you that you’ve been selected by none other than Bill Gates himself to receive $5 million as part of “a charity project to improve the 10 lucky individuals all over the world.” You just need to send a few hundred dollars to help facilitate the delivery of the payout. (That said, if you really think Bill Gates would be dedicating his foundation’s money and energy to sending millions to random people, maybe you deserve to lose a few hundred bucks.)
