It is not a secret for anyone that along with honest people there are a lot of fraudsters and deceivers who are engaged in extortion of money and by deception receive personal benefit, thanks to other people's funds. What is the difference between scammers and ordinary people, and how to recognize them in order to protect yourself and your finances? Today, the process of identifying crooks and fraudsters is also becoming more complicated because mass fraud has spread to the Internet, and it becomes much more difficult to identify fraud in the virtual space.
Instructions
Step 1
Numerous offers to make money on the Internet, remote work offers, and similar ads are ubiquitous, and not everyone is able to understand which of these offers offers honest earnings, and which is aimed at extorting money in favor of scammers.
Step 2
In most cases, calls to make huge sums of money on the Internet without any extra effort talk about fraud. People fall for the tricks of deceivers, thanks to their greed and desire to make as much money as possible, without investing time and skill. If you are offered such earnings, you should know that there are scammers in front of you. Any large income requires hard work, and it is impossible to get decent amounts of money without work.
Step 3
Also, offers to make an advance payment or an entry fee to an electronic wallet before starting a joint work speak of fraud. Never send money to unknown employers online.
Step 4
Also, never trust the sites of employers that have a free third-level domain. Check the site owner information in the WHOIS service by entering the domain name into the search. If the site has existed for no more than two months, perhaps you are in front of a scammer - after money has been collected from gullible people, the scammers disappear, destroying sites and mailing addresses, and then create new sites under different names.
Step 5
If the site owner accepts money transfers via WebMoney, make sure he has a personal passport, which indicates the seriousness of the employer - notarized documents, as well as the passport data of the owner of the electronic wallet, are involved in obtaining the passport.
Step 6
If the seller is a fraud, he will use a standard wallet that is not verified by a passport. Never send even small amounts to online wallets, even if you are offered fabulous profits in return. In reality, you will receive nothing.
Step 7
Make sure you can contact your employer or seller at any time. Always ask all questions to the employer in advance - decent people should answer the letter in the next few days after sending it.
Step 8
In addition, scammers tend to refuse face-to-face meetings and do not give their phone numbers.
