How to identify a Fraud website
For those who think that Internet makes our life easier and messianic, they must also know that there are many scam websites that are running successfully online and if you are a newbie to this online world, then there is a very high chance that you will get scammed easily because it can be very difficult to identify and see the difference between right and wrong.
To prove my point, let us take a very simple example. Suppose that I go to the most popular online Search Engine (Yeah! I am talking about my personal favorite Google.com), and type these three words there “Make money online free” and when I press the search button there are more than 507,000,000 results shown up there.
Not going in to too much more details about all the results that are shown up , rather when we have a deep look at top 50 results, then we would find that about 50% of them i.e. ~25 results are scam.You might be thinking that as they are free, why not give them a try as there is no money that I need to invest in it and all which is required from my side is some online time and I’ve got ample of it.
But when you will have a deep look at it, you will find that most of these programs are Referrals i.e. you need to refer it to your friends through some referral link etc. and that’s where these scammers come into play. All they do is collect some of the personal data and then sell it to some companies such as call centers etc. who need new people and their details such as address and phone number etc.
So I would recommend you all to be beware of them so that there is no fraudulent activity being done with you.
Probable solution:
Well there are many steps that you can take against them.We list them all for you here.
- First of all, you look at the whois information of the website you are willing to follow/join.
- You might also try to search ‘abc.com scam‘ on Internet as this could lead you to some reviews which can help you a lo.
- Never give your details such as account number/ credit card number etc. which could be used to harm you.
- Remember that there is no very fast way to make money as some might try and catch your attention by saying “Earn $10000″ in 1hour.So think twice before you act.
We would also recommend you to visit the following websites:
Scam.com – A Message board getting Information about Various Fraud Websites.
Ripoffreport.com – You can Report any kind ofscam, fraud, complaint etc. here.
Hope that these will help you in identifying spammers and scam easily.
