😉 Greetings to everyone who accidentally wandered into my site! Gentlemen, unfortunately, there is fraud on the Internet. Let’s discuss this topic.
The World Wide Web has become very popular, most people just live on it. Now here you can not only watch movies, chat with friends, but also work. Many people want to make money quickly and are led by bright banners that say about quick earnings of $ 1000 per week.
Several of the most popular methods of tricking users should be shown. Some of them are obvious, but others are not so obvious to ordinary people.
Scammers on the Internet
Scam programs
Wandering on the World Wide Web, you can stumble upon an offer to download a program that will bring income, and possibly become a source of permanent income. And the most important thing is that you don’t need to do anything for this at all!
The last argument is especially blurring the eyes of freeloaders who thoughtlessly agree to a tempting offer. Usually, for downloading, they ask to send a certain amount to the account of the creator of the program, assuring that it will pay off.
After the procedure, the deceived user is left with nothing, and it is very difficult to track the fraudster.
Sites with “minimal” withdrawal of funds
There are sites on which the user is offered earnings. Everything is in order with work – it is there. The essence of deception is not this, but the possibility of withdrawing money to the wallet.
The creator of the site specifically sets an unattainable threshold for withdrawing funds, to which a person will never get, no matter how long he works. As a result, he gets tired and quits this activity. It turns out that the work was done properly, and the money remained on the fraudster’s website.
SMS scammers
This is the most common type of deception. Often, when downloading the desired file, users have to face a request to send an SMS to a short number to gain access to the file.
The result of sending will be the withdrawal of a decent amount of money from the phone account or the automatic connection of an unnecessary service. This “service” will charge a certain amount of funds every day.
Another case is when it is announced that you have won a super prize, for which you need to confirm your identity by sending an SMS. The result is always the same. So, one should not be gullible. Before working on a questionable site, you should first read the reviews of real people.
Also, you can never send SMS to the proposed numbers. It will not bring any prizes or easy money.
On the Internet, as in life, you need to work in order to earn money. If there was a way to earn money, without any effort, society would have collapsed long ago.
