BEWARE SCAM - Fooled me and I'm on HiGH ALERT for SCAMS
- I get these text messages and It did not occur to me it was a SCAM !!!
One in five American adults who have encountered online scams have ended up falling for one of them and losing money, according to a new Consumer Reports report.
Election-Related Text Scams Are Surging: Here's How to Spot Them. Not all of those campaign-related texts in your inbox are legit. Here's how to avoid getting duped into giving up your money or personal information.
Donations SCAM-
There is no more direct way for a scammer to get an immediate payoff for their crime than asking for a donation. Whether the text claims to be from a politician, political party, political action committee, or anyone else in connection with the election, steer clear. If you would like to contribute financially to a political cause, you can contact the relevant office directly.
FACEBOOK SCAMS- Beware - I see the same sad post every day Missing dog, Missing Child it Tugs at your heart. Beware it may be a SCAM Do not Share, When you share a scam post on Facebook, the scammer may edit the post to include a malicious link or fake ad. The goal is to get people to click on the link to steal money or information. To spot a FAKE from a Real Post- see the picture above
- I personally have been affected by
Rental Scams
The Scammer Steals my photos of my home for sale, Then they put the home up for rent really cheap. They dont show you the home, they say they are out of the country and if you send them $$$ they will tell you the code to get in the home SCAM! Never send money unless you see the home in person. If you are not sure contact me and I will check if a rental is really a rental or listed for sale.
