Getting scammed

In today’s world, there are so many scammers out there trying to take advantage of people.

There’s the dating scammer, who steals others’ pictures and pretends to be them. They sweet talk you into giving information and then will ask you for money. Some lonely people, will really think that this person is into them and fall for it. It’s sad that there even has to be a show called Catfish, that calls out these people.

There are the scammers on social media who tell you you won something and fill out this link or that link to try to get your personal information.

There are email scammers and now text messaging scammers telling you that your credit cards are frozen or to go through a link to get to your Amazon or PayPal account. Again praying on people who aren’t tech-savvy.

I remember getting one such email that said there was a breach in a hospital I went to. They said click here and I did then they said call this number which I did and they started asking me for personal information. That’s when I said I’ll call you back. I immediately went on Google to see if there was truly a breach, which there was but I went one step further and called the hospital itself to ask if they were using this service to give a free credit report for everyone for one year.
They gave me the number to call the service to join. I felt I did my homework enough to proceed.

Recently I saw an ad for a personal assistant for a real estate agent. I reached out to her and she said it was 400.00 a week to post some ads for real estate under my Facebook marketplace.
I asked who was paying for them, she said no one. Which didn’t make sense, so I asked why didn’t she do them under her Facebook account.
She didn’t answer but kept trying to hire me. I decided to Google Facebook job scams involving the marketplace. And Bam! There it was, many people had been scammed by ads like this. I went one step further and searched her name in the Department of Professional Licensing and guess what? Nope,
nothing there. I then called the DPRS and turned her in for fraud as she is going around saying she is a licensed real estate agent.

These stories are crazy and these scammers are getting better and better at this game. We must remember
that we have to be careful, and we must always listen to our gut feelings.

So today my friends remember that unfortunately there are all kinds of scammers out there, please check it out before potentially being scammed.
