Some people are "lucky" to constantly fall prey to scammers. It may be a simple coincidence, but more often than not, the situation is repeated precisely because of the person's behavior.
Instructions
Step 1
Be vigilant and “expect a hit” from all people you cannot 100% trust. Even good-natured-looking people can deceive, use you for their own purposes or rob you. Watch them, keep track of things and money.
Step 2
Do not trust strangers who are too friendly and try to impose communication. Avoid contact with them and watch out for pockets and bags - perhaps they are trying to distract you with conversation.
Step 3
Be reasonable and don't believe the "free cheese" suggestions. It is not uncommon for scammers to gamble on the desire to get rich quick and offer large profits if you pay in advance. Their speeches can be convincing and the investments are well-founded, but they will most likely disappear after receiving money. This also applies to other "bargains" on the Internet.
Step 4
Do not buy expensive items from your hands if you are not personally acquainted with the seller and you do not have witnesses present during the sale. If you do decide to buy, check the product carefully to make sure it works well and meets your requirements. After inspection, do not release the goods from your hands, because scammers can discreetly replace it with a broken one.
Step 5
Check questionable data as often as possible to minimize the likelihood of fraud. If you receive a request from an unknown number to top up your account - allegedly from your relative - call his usual number and clarify the truthfulness of the message.
Step 6
Carefully read the contracts and documents where your signature will be. When concluding deals, do not hesitate to consult with a specialist. Check organization details, license validity and other important information. Make sure of their reliability and only then conclude a contract.
