Cammie Brown was trying to make a little extra money, so she decided to sell Avon on the side as an independent sales rep. Less than two months in, she was targeted by scammers.

"There is a contact button and that is how she got in contact with me," she said. The person ordered about $175 worth of merchandise, but when the check came, Cammie was shocked. "So I was thinking just a little bit of money here and there, but when I received the check, it was worth $2,250 -- red flag went off."

Glad she didn't fall for it. I used to sell Mary Kay and would only accept a check from people I knew, never from a stranger. Good to hear that Avon is being pro-active and warning the sales reps. about these scams.
