UNIVERSITY POLICE BUILDING, 2201 Robert Dedman Scam: A UT student came to the police department to report a scam in which someone contacted him to provide tutoring services. Upon agreeing on a fee for tutoring services, the subject sent the student a check for well over the amount agreed upon. The subject asked the student to deposit the check in the student’s bank account and to send the remainder of the cash back. The student, believing this to be a scam, deposited the check into his account but did not send the remainder of the cash back to the scam artist. The student was advised to notify his bank the check was fraudulent and to cease communication with the suspect. I hear the Texas Department of Corrections has a tutoring program for inmates.
