Consider what the money is for.

- Did someone out of the blue tell you to wire transfer funds or something bad will happen?
- Did you reply to an online ad (Craigslist, Facebook) for a rental property? Have you been able to physically see the property and meet the landlord or property management company in person?
- Are you purchasing a home and received an email about a change of closing date and/or wire instructions?
