Warning! Internet scammer is targeting attorneys

There is an Internet scammer out there targeting lawyers. The scammer purports to be a Thailand-based company in need of a lawyer to aid in its delinquent account collection.

The company -- which claims to have located the attorney through an online directory -- will ultimately try to get the attorney to deposit a check and wire the funds out of the country. The check is actually a cleverly constructed counterfeit. At least one local attorney was among those targeted. Minnesota Lawyer has the details of the attorney's experience in Monday's paper.
