Avoiding Scams, Fraud and Spam
2. Phishing is an attempt to steal your personal data via a fraudulent e-mail or website claiming to be legitimate seeking identifiable information. For more information and to download a phishing filter add-in please visit Microsoft.
3. Avoid deals that require transfer of money via Western Union Money Transfer/Money Gram or Escrow Services as anyone who asks payments to be made via these is a scammer. Below is an example of an email received by a visitor on Muslim-ads she responded to the ad which was also posted on Muslim-ads luckily the scam ad was removed after the sister reported it to us.
---Example of a fraud-email>>>>
Below is the western union info.
NAME OF SENDER: YOUR FRIENDS NAME
NAME OF RECEIVER: YOUR NAME
SENDERS ADDRESS: YOUR ADDRESS
AMOUNT SENT:
MCTN 10 DIGIT NUMBER: THE WESTERN UNION WILL GIVE YOU THIS NUMBER
AFTER YOU HAVE SEND THE MONEY.
Let me know if this idea will meet you in good condition
4. 419 Scams are emails received from someone claiming that your help is needed to transfer money out of that country, however they will ask you to pay towards the making the transfer and once you have paid you will never hear from that person. For more information on this type of scam please visit the Metropolitan Police website.
5. Another good way to check if the ad is scam or not is by looking at the contact email address provided in the ad. Below is list of some examples:
carphonewarehouseltd@inbox.com
appleelectronicsltd@hotmail.com
mobileplaza20@live.com
letting.vacation6@googlemail.com
shop-priceltd@yahoo.it
service.unicef247@gmail.com
Note the 1st part of the email like for example the 1st email says carphonewarehouseltd the 2nd part is @inbox.com. If this was a genuine email address it would have @carphonewarehouse.com.
The last email was used for a posting titled "Work From Home" when you look at the email address provided the 1st part refers to Unicef but the 2nd part has no metion of Unicef and instead is gmail.com
GENERAL SAFETY TIPS
1. Deal locally with people you can meet.
2. Never give out your personal or financial information to anyone online.
3. Always view the property before you pay any deposits.
4. Never post any items until you have received the payment and it has cleared.
5. If you are responding to a post in the Marriage proposal section then we strongly advise you to visit www.islam.about.com which provides information on Marriage and how to select your partner as per the deen.
6. If you are responding to a job advert always research on the company that is offering the job and meet your prospective employer in person.
7. If you are looking for Nanny/Teacher/Driving Instructor- always check that they have the right qualifications, ask for references and most importantly check to see that they are registered with a vetted organisation.
8. If you are purchasing tickets to events-always check that the event advertised is genuine and also if someone is selling on a ticket to an event check to ensure that they are allowed to sell on the ticket as some may not allow their tickets to be sold on by the purchaser
9. When buying goods try to view them before you buy if that's not possible then ask for recent photos of the goods that are on sale.
10. Finally use your common sense-if an offer sounds too good to be true then you will most probably find that it is.
