The Internet space is getting stronger every day andstronger captures our lives. Already there is even a special category of people who do not go on the Internet, but live there, leaving for reality only the dispatch of physiological needs. And they are reduced to a minimum.
Like every society, the Internet is full not onlynormal, adequate and law-abiding citizens, there are also scammers in it. And in an amount much larger than in real life. Why? The answer is obvious. On the Internet, we are all at a distance from each other, and anonymity is erected here almost in the cult. The network is a real paradise for Internet fraud. Here it will not be possible to immediately fill a liar with a person, and it is much more difficult to bring him to justice legally than in normal life. Here they are born with terrible force, for a million times losing the old schemes and inventing new ones.
Let's talk a little about what happensfraud on the Internet. This article will not be able to accommodate the enumeration of all the schemes by which scams act, so let's walk through the most common.
Scheme one: the pyramids
Regardless of what you dooffer to distribute, the scheme is the same everywhere. Let's analyze it using the example of web-purses. Most often, this fraud through the Internet begins with the fact that someone announces that there is a magic chest, in the sense - a purse, transferring to which a certain amount you will after a while receive two, three, ten, a hundred times more. For the first time, you are likely to get something, especially if you find several more such naive "buratin" who want to get rich just like that.
Scheme two: work
You can often find job ads inwhich candidates are offered to either collect CD-ROMs at home, or screw up the fountain pens, or simply reprint the texts. Work to give promise a lot, the payment of these simple, in general, actions also looks attractive. The victim of fraud on the Internet in his head immediately starts to click the calculator, calculating future profits. But there is one condition. For some reason, often quite valid, the employer does not risk simply sending you materials for work, as several times he was deceived by unscrupulous employees, or he is just beginning his activities. As a proof of your reliability and seriousness of intentions, you are suggested to send a small (relatively) amount to some account. You, they say, will be able to return it almost in the first half hour of labor activity. The calculator continues to click and gives the answer. Indeed, it turns out that in comparison with future prosperity, this amount looks like a penny. The competitor joyfully rushes to the bank or to the terminal or climbs into his web wallet and transfers the required amount. Unsubscribes about the transfer and begins to wait for the courier with a box of semi-finished products or a letter with the text to be typed. He waited a long time, but then it still comes to him that he was a victim of fraud on the Internet. Scammers do not require exorbitant sums. They work not on quality, but on quantity. In addition, few people will want to go to the police to complain about scammers for the sake of returning a small amount.
The essence is simple, like a road map.Traveling through the expanses of the Internet, you accidentally go to a site, when you visit the whole monitor, a sign in which it says that your computer is infected with a virus, and very soon all information from it will be eaten by this virus. However, the disappearance of information is not a prerequisite for the activity of this virus. Sometimes instead of a virus in the whole screen is a cool porn. And here, in order to neutralize the insidious virus or remove porn from the screen, you need to urgently send an SMS to a short number. Then you will receive another SMS with the code, by entering which, you will save your information or reputation. Agree that if you caught such a charm on your work computer, you'll have to dry your reputation long. This kind of fraud on the Internet is the most dangerous, since most users can not independently get rid of this Trojan. But here you can try to go into safe mode and roll back the system, or quickly go into the task manager and stop the process.
