It is no joke in our Society today that a lot of people are getting duped by the minute. well to me, this is not fair because a lot of people are now insecure about businesses that have to do with the internet which is not meant to be, but I don’t blame them because I myself always have to confirm if it is a legit business or not. I always have to talk to different people, ask on different platforms and do other things to confirm that the website is not a scam because this is where the society has led us to. There are a lot of scam websites out there which draw in their victims by posting advertising amazing rewards that are not existing and use of the person Ventures into such a business you will lose a lot and end up being broke
That is why in this article are we telling you about the different ways in which you can catch a scam websites or a scammer.
But before doing this know that you must be a very computer literate person or at least an averagely a computer literate person .
Extraordinary offers.
Some of you see some offers on the Internet that appear to be too good to be true, but due to the greed of many of us, we still venture into it and eventually get duped or scammed. I am here to tell you that you should avoid such tempting offers unless you’re absolutely and totally sure that is this a real and legitimate business. If it is an online platform, make sure you don’t invest anything unless you see proof of originality or legitimacy because this is how a lot of Nigerians get duped by the minute. I I have actually fallen a victim to this before when a guy tried to sell a car to me and asked for transportation fee but I’m here to tell you that do not send any transportation fee to anyone or do anything similar because they might just be attempting to scam you or dupe you.
Review the name of the website
I have actually discovered that a lot of scam websites use names that are similar to other popular websites or company names and this is to draw the users in into thinking that it is a trust worthy or reliable website so when you find the websites that you are not identified with but seems similar to a popular website make sure to review is properly and confirm from every possible source you can get before you venture into this business examples of search name of websites may have commodities like the names of phones cars or companies related to their names for example you can see about a website named HPdashout but I’m here to tell you not to fall into Their Tricks because this may just be a scam website and endeavor to find out more about such a website and report it if it is a scam website .
Do not pay by transfer.
Never ever make the mistake of paying an online business or agency with bank transfer because if it turns out to be a scam you will never be able to get your money back. Most legitimate websites actually use payment by debit card but scam websites may use payment by bank transfer because they know you won’t be able to get your money back so I am telling you now that you should always try to use your debit card to pay for anything online so that you will get your money back even if it turns out to be a scam.
Check online reviews
This is another effective way to catch scam websites. When you see an online platform or a business, take the time to find online reviews concerning such a business and if you don’t find any it probably means that it is a scam website and if you do find reviews and see it is a scam make sure you don’t try anything with that website online review and tells people that actually have experience with such business and they will tell you how and what it entails if it is a scam or not.
