Fraudulent scholarship operations often use official-sounding names, containing words such as federal, national, administration, division,
federation, and foundation.
If you win a scholarship, you will receive a written official notification by mail, not by telephone.
Be wary if an organization’ address is a box number or a residential address.
Beware of telephone numbers with a 900-area code.
Watch for scholarships that ask you to “act now.”
Be wary of endorsements.
Don’t pay money for a scholarship to an organization that you’ve never heard of before or whose legitimacy you can’t verify.
To find out how to recognize, report, and stop a scholarship scam go to www.ftc.gov or call 877 FTC-HELP (toll free).
