Holiday Scammers

[tommy]

It is the holiday one of the largest of the year so are people on call for fraud cases coming into your work? I am stuck at work for a few hours and most holidays we are lucky being passed over by the fraud gnomes but who knows with this year its been a crazy one. What are good holiday tips to look out for when making sure no bad sales come in?

There's this one email I received with a very enticing ad which says I'll be able to get to try lots of their stuff with just filling out a form and all goods will be delivered to my place.Heck, a friend told me that I will pay a freight once delivered which is actually 10x the cost of the goods.Good thing I didn't try this holiday promo.

If you're into retail or if you sell gift items, chances are there'll be more fraud cases since it's the holidays. They also know that it's a busy time so you'll be less vigilant.

Got a Valentines email of some sort of 50% discount on items again *sigh* and all the other details seems to be shouting scam.

You are absolutely right !!! Busy time is their perfect time

Well the holidays are over so I guess they're shifting strategies now.

Those scammers are so pathetic. I got an email message that said i should come to Sweden for summer job and that i should just pay $1000. The message was so enticing , that i was going to be paid 1500euros per month...i just deleted it immediately.
