Needless to say, we cannot imagine our everyday life without Internet. But today the Internet has become not only an excellent way of any kind of communication but also an excellent tool for fraudsters. Unfortunately there are a number of fraud schemes that have been developed over the years, and a number of them are appearing on the Internet. These scams may appear on Web sites, or potential victims may be approached through email, chat rooms, or other Internet technologies. Over the years, there have been a number of scams that have evolved, which are designed to defraud consumers, investors and ordinary users. Their goal is to get people to become involved in a fraudulent transaction, send money, or participate in some other way in the scam.
Actually there are a number of common ones you may come in contact with. The most extended of them Such as auction and E-Commerce Fraud or Credit Card Fraud are well known. There are multiple victims in this crime. The legitimate e-commerce site who delivered the item has been bilked out of the product and the money for it. All they have is the name of the person it was delivered to, and another person's unlawfully obtained credit card number. The person who purchased the item from the criminal believes the items paid for, but their name is now attached to a fraudulent transaction made with the legitimate e-commerce site. While this is being sorted out, the criminal has the money and may be victimizing other individuals and companies in this manner.
So, beware of "Too Good To Be True" Deals – just remember the old saying if it's too good to be true, it probably is! By questioning the offer and the motives behind the offer, you will be better able to avoid falling victim to a scam. Be wary of individuals who hide their identities - One of the attractions of the Internet is that it allows anonymity to people, but you should beware of people who refuse to disclose who they really are. Email addresses that don't provide relevant information about the person is an indication of someone who wants to hide their true identity. For example, a person may have an email address like XYZ123@. Another example would be someone who doesn't give contact names and addresses, but only provides the name of the Web site. Avoid "Advance Fee" demands - Don't pay for an item or service before you receive it. Investigate the businesses you deal with, look up information on merchants on the Internet before doing business with them.
