Some of these common scams include foreign lottery scams, secret shopper scams, and family member in distress scams. Foreign lottery scams basically announcements the inform recipients that they've won large sums of money in foreign countries. Secret shopper scams are where advertisers seek applicants as ''secret'' or ''mystery'' shopper. Family member in distress scams are where scammers impersonate distressed family members in desperate need of money. ]]> 2018-04-20 00:09:11 UTC https://padlet.com/brianna_mendiola/qig4jaf05zwy/wish/253661364 anikcaguon99 https://padlet.com/brianna_mendiola/qig4jaf05zwy/wish/253661863 they do this defraud to million of people every year . so what they also do is they trick others to get their personal information and to give money. ]]> 2018-04-20 00:12:34 UTC https://padlet.com/brianna_mendiola/qig4jaf05zwy/wish/253661863 blessymanglona https://padlet.com/brianna_mendiola/qig4jaf05zwy/wish/253662172 In this website, I learned about a few mail fraud schemes. I learned about employment fraud, financial fraud, telemarketing fraud, and fraud against older Americans. Employment fraud deals with phony job opportunities, work at home schemes, etc. Financial fraud deals with charity fraud, credit card fraud, land fraud and etc. Fraud against older Americans deal with sweep-stake advice from older Americans and etc. Lastly, telemarketing frauds deal with the characteristics of telemarketing frauds. ]]> 2018-04-20 00:14:36 UTC https://padlet.com/brianna_mendiola/qig4jaf05zwy/wish/253662172 mariettebarcinas https://padlet.com/brianna_mendiola/qig4jaf05zwy/wish/254214530 wrongful or criminal deception intended to result in financial or personal gain. ]]> 2018-04-23 01:34:41 UTC https://padlet.com/brianna_mendiola/qig4jaf05zwy/wish/254214530 mariettebarcinas https://padlet.com/brianna_mendiola/qig4jaf05zwy/wish/254656671 https://www.saipantribune.com/index.php/massive-water-fraud-exposed/]]> 2018-04-24 01:55:29 UTC https://padlet.com/brianna_mendiola/qig4jaf05zwy/wish/254656671 mariettebarcinas https://padlet.com/brianna_mendiola/qig4jaf05zwy/wish/254657534 From this website, I learned that surfing the internet is just like driving in a bad neighborhood. Don't go on anywhere that may seem suspicious, or else something bad may happen. One way to protect yourself from fraud, especially on the internet is by keeping your firewall on. The firewall blocks intruders, just like in a house. Keeping your system updated such as by installing anti-virus and anti-spyware is also a great way. Do not download from suspicious sites, or enter credit card information for inauthentic sites. This may give the stealer access to your personal information. Always be careful on the internet! Hungry people are everywhere. ]]> 2018-04-24 02:00:13 UTC https://padlet.com/brianna_mendiola/qig4jaf05zwy/wish/254657534 mariettebarcinas https://padlet.com/brianna_mendiola/qig4jaf05zwy/wish/254750491 Out of all the subtopics, I chose the topic that talked about reporting email and phone scams. Here, I learned that many people claim to be from the Department of Treasury or IRS, however they are not. The correct thing to do will be to not respond with providing your personal information. These fraudulent people are trying to steal your personal information, and most times it is difficult to tell if it is a fake. There are cases through phone where the caller is from out of state, and they are often more difficult to prosecute. The best tip is to just stop answering unknown numbers, and be sure to report it. ]]> 2018-04-24 10:27:18 UTC https://padlet.com/brianna_mendiola/qig4jaf05zwy/wish/254750491 mariettebarcinas https://padlet.com/brianna_mendiola/qig4jaf05zwy/wish/254752623 From this site, I learned that crooks are very clever in cunning people to give them what they want. Although we are in the present, they still utilize old tricks to make it believable. It is important to stay up to date with the present, due to how they are always catching up. An example of this situation would be learning how to code to get on the same level as the current technological advancements. This technique will fool people, due to how they wouldn't know the difference between an authentic site or a fake one. ]]> 2018-04-24 10:37:00 UTC https://padlet.com/brianna_mendiola/qig4jaf05zwy/wish/254752623 mariettebarcinas https://padlet.com/brianna_mendiola/qig4jaf05zwy/wish/254810413 Something new I have learned was that scams most often occur during difficult times. The reason being is because the need for money is more dramatic. These people behind the screens target those who may be more vulnerable to sympathize for others who claim to be in need. With these scams, trust may be broken for those who actually have the intention of helping others. Examples of scams in this topic are the Nigerian, Foreign Lottery, and Secret Shopper Scam. ]]> 2018-04-24 13:24:58 UTC https://padlet.com/brianna_mendiola/qig4jaf05zwy/wish/254810413 mariettebarcinas https://padlet.com/brianna_mendiola/qig4jaf05zwy/wish/254825010 I learned about the many different types of frauds. I honestly didn't know that there were this many type of frauds, I only thought of a few. However this list was specific, and some of them include: Fraud Against Older Americans, Financial and Employment Fraud, and Sweepstakes and Lottery Fraud. This last type of fraud mentioned is something I constantly see on internet ads. They seem so realistic, but now I know that I shouldn't trust it until I hear something good from a trustworthy friend. Frauds can occur through mail too, so be careful with everything you respond to, especially if you are not sure of who or what it is. ]]> 2018-04-24 13:48:38 UTC https://padlet.com/brianna_mendiola/qig4jaf05zwy/wish/254825010 https://padlet.com/brianna_mendiola/qig4jaf05zwy/wish/259477228 wrongful or criminal deception intended to result in financial or personal gain]]> 2018-05-09 23:25:32 UTC https://padlet.com/brianna_mendiola/qig4jaf05zwy/wish/259477228 https://padlet.com/brianna_mendiola/qig4jaf05zwy/wish/259477712 ww.reuters.com/article/us-banks-uk-smallbusinesses/victims-of-bank-fraud-criticize-britains-financial-watchdog-idUSKBN1IA2YJ]]> 2018-05-09 23:28:22 UTC https://padlet.com/brianna_mendiola/qig4jaf05zwy/wish/259477712 https://padlet.com/brianna_mendiola/qig4jaf05zwy/wish/259479438 I learn that fraud people will steal important information from you.
