Simple tips on how to spot fraudsters
Fraudsters often introduce themselves as a well-known company and try to gain your trust but their motives are far from trustworthy. Their main goal is to:
Steal your money.
Involve you in questionable (usually illegal) activities.
Place you in financial danger.
If you are asked to make financial transactions, become part of a particular group or participate in any sort of campaign, always remember to:
Understand what these offers actually entail, even if a message looks or sounds genuine. Don't forget that fraudsters will often study their victim's profile and will know exactly how to initiate a response from you.
