Top 8 Rules Of Avoiding Scams by Scamfender: 2:46am On Nov 21, 2014 |
1. Deal locally, face-to-face —follow this one rule and avoid 99% of scam attempts. 2. Do not extend payment to anyone you have not met in person. Beware offers involving shipping - deal with locals you can meet in person. 3. Never wire funds (e.g. Western Union) - anyone who asks you to is a scammer. 4. Don't accept cashier/certified checks or money orders - banks cash fakes, then hold you responsible. 5. Transactions are between users only, no third party provides a "guarantee". 6. Never give out financial info (bank account, social security, paypal account, etc). 7. Do not rent or purchase sight-unseen —that amazing "deal" may not exist. 8. Refuse background/credit checks until you have met landlord/employer in person. Source: www.scamfender.com/2014/11/top-8-rules-of-avoiding-online-scams.html?m=0 |
