Online fraud

There are many methods of online fraud, just like in other areas of life. Something changes, something disappears, something new appears, but the goal remains the same: to lure money or other material goods from the victim.

However, no matter what changes, criminals play on the same feelings: gullibility, greed, empathy, fear.So, fraudsters have many ways to deceive, and it's impossible to tell you about all of them.

Let's name the most popular ones:

• Selling and buying non-existent goods.
• Dating on the Internet.
• Renting out non-existent housing.
• Job offers.

The above fraudulent methods are not all the ways in which fraudsters lure "extra" savings from their fellow citizens. However, they all have a few things in common.

They rely on greed, fear, pressure on emotions, difficult financial situation or the victim's moral state. Therefore, the advice here is quite simple. The main thing is to take your time.
