Once the scammers have received the personal information, they will subsequently ask their potential victims to send money in order to claim their so-called Visa card. The scammers will claim the money is for taxes, processing fee, delivery fee, or some other fees. But, if money is sent, the scammers will take it and disappear; leaving their victims broke and depressed.
