Amazon Fake Order Scam

Posted on by

Please share this scam alert with your friends on social media.

The message below (shown in yellow) is an insidious kind of phishing scam that tries to steal your personal information (credit card numbers, bank account numbers, etc.).

The scammer has put together a fake order receipt that claims to thank you for spending more than $1400 dollars. Anyone who gets such a message will naturally panic and want to call to correct the error — and that’s the trap! If you call the number listed a polite person will answer (the scammer), ask you for your credit card information, apologize and tell you everything has been cancelled. And bingo! You’ve just given away your personal data to the scammer. Don’t fall into the trap!

Leslie Holt Business Proposal (Scam Warning)

Posted on by

Please share this scam alert with your friends on social media.

The message below (shown in yellow) is a typical example of a business investment scam, with a bit of mystery attached — what is the proposal?

If you make the mistake of replying to “Leslie” (almost certainly not the scammer’s real name), you’ll soon discover that the “proposal” involves having you provide your bank account or credit card information, or having you pay a fee to “unlock the deal.” Once the scammer has your information or your cash, he’ll disappear, never to be heard from again.

Amazon PlayStation Order (Phishing Scam Alert)

Posted on by

Please share this scam alert with your friends on social media.

The message below (shown in yellow) is a phishing scam – it’s not a real message from Amazon.com. It’s an attempt to steal your credit card information.

If you get an email message like this one that says a $1400 charge has been placed on your account, your natural reaction is to immediately call the company to stop the phony charge. And that’s exactly what the scammer here hopes you will do, because the company phone number listed in the message is not a real number: it goes straight to the scammer. “Yes, Mr. Jones, I can cancel that order for you. Just give me your card number and date of birth please….”

That’s the trap. You think you’ve cancelled a phony order, but in fact you’ve just given your private information away to a thief.

GEORGE DIAMOND, ETOMI CHAMBERS (Scam Alert)

Posted on by

Please share this scam alert with your friends on social media.

The message below (shown in yellow) is a typical advance fee fraud message. The scammer claims to have money to send you, but if you make the mistake of replying, he will tell you that the money is ready to go as soon as you send the required transfer fee, or bank charge, or import tax, or something similar.

If you make the bigger mistake of sending that “advance fee,” the scammer will disappear with your money and never be seen again.

Please share this scam alert with your friends on social media.

The message below (shown in yellow) is an example of a typical business investment scam, but with an extra twist: the scammer says he wants to move to your country and become your business partner.

Scams of this kind promise you lots of money as a successful investor, but if you make the mistake of replying, the scammer will ask for personal information (like bank account numbers or credit card info) and then use that to empty your bank account.
