Springhill Group Home: Paypal Scam
                      The World Wide Web consortium is one of the well-known partners in
                      business. Due to the growing demand of the business industry, firms use
                      the triple W in order for them to reach their customers across the world.
And well as to make their business reached by their customers at their most convenient
approach. At large, these businesses that are into the modernization are the one who makes
physical goods such as cars or pipes in which then they sell at a profit and even shopping.
Consumers can purchase goods 24/7 through online or e-commerce- the selling and acquiring of
products or services over the internet with the use of different shelling out methods and feels
like you are safer than using the conventional way of shopping. But did you know that in taking
the number of the advantages can make you down in the dumps in just a minute, giving the
disadvantage of it? What are the possible occurrences in paying using those methods? How
surely that you are so secure?
Debit Card, Credit Card,Gift Certficate, Paypal Account, Paypal Alternatives, Money Order, Web
Certificate and other payment methods can rip-off by the growing swindlers or scammers across
the web. But the most spot of such feeding frenzy is your Paypal Account in
which can take everything and be as one of their victims of the said scam.
It is an act of taking your money through giving you the imitation of
someone’s personality with an imaginary addresses as well as phone
numbers, counterfeit photos and template letters that can absolutely loose
cannon.
As an online shopper it’s better to become aware about the growing scam.
                    Then, it is good if you do so. If you think that you are safer from scams when
                    you use PayPal, you’re not.

                      PayPal users are the specific targets of an email scam that results to PayPal
Scam. Scammer behind the PayPal scam sends PayPal users an official-looking email asking them
to verify their account or identity. The email is addressed “Dear PayPal User” and the email
contains official-looking PayPal content like the PayPal logo, graphics, and page format. To detect
unused accounts and email addresses is just the perceptive intentions of the email they send. In
addition, they will also give you a reason that PayPal is encountering problems with the software
they are using and a call for a change of operating systems, that PayPal documents or files are
lost or corrupted or a number of excuses you can hear from them that can populate your mind.
Yet, there is one thing common about the content on the perceptive email: it is directing PayPal
users to verify their identities using their personal and credit information. There is sometimes a
form provided for this purpose right in the email; other times there is a link directing the
recipient of the email to another site where they are to enter their information.
If you receive an email similar to this, ignore it and don’t do what is telling you to
do even if it looks like official, and even if the email tells you to go to an
official-looking site. Whatever the assertion of the email you got, always
think of that their primary intention is to really get your personal and
financial information so that the scammers behind the email can defraud
you out of money, and this is against the law. Once it happens, you will now
become as an easy target for the said identity theft.
Springhill Group Home: Protect Yourself
                      Against Frauds and Scams, Identity Theft and
                                  Reduce Spam Email
                       Scam, Frauds and identity theft are just some of the threats encountering by
the internet users. For the new users this kind of occurrence during their search or conversation
on the internet can give them quite idea that these are likely important and can simply hook
them up in just a single click. So, if you are one of them and or think that you have been a
witness of these blue moons or just simply to be aware about and safeguard yourself, below are
the lists of activities or actions that you can take in order to put a fence on your side.

1.    Do not use or carry a checkbook
When you are paying stuff, it suggests being it in cash or credit card. It’s safer to pay your bills
through your bank or credit unification online bill paying service which is usually free.

2.     Buy and use a paper cutter
Identity thieves actually go through homeowner’s trash to acquire personal information. For you
to put off these thieves objectives, feel Secure to cut any documents that have
your social security number or other financial information, such as the
bank account number of yours, credit card numbers and the like that can
possibly give these people your personal identity. If you don’t have paper
cutter make use of an alternative through burning these documents
completely.
3.      Freeze your credit
                     This is to hands off scammers from opening unauthorized accounts in your
                   name or identity. Even if your state is one of the few that does not allow
                   freeze, you can still freeze your files at some of the leading major credit
         q         bureaus out there.

4.   Make a Do-not-Call List
5.   Make a statement to block credit card offers
6.   Always put your Social Security card in a safe place
When you renew your driver’s license, make sure the DMV does not use your Social Security
number as your driver’s license number.

7.      Make use of a different email addresses
 8. Use a separate email address
This is when you post messages to any public forum, such as newsgroups and mailing lists. Make
an email account for such private conversation purposes and for another for your public identity
to put a stop to this growing identity theft. Never use your personal email
address in public because you might receive a number of different spams.
You can periodically check this email account to see what spam is and what
isn’t. A bonus is that Yahoo’s spam blocker is better than those from most
ISP’s! And your main personal email address won’t be as clogged with spam.
Some ISP’s like AOL and BellSouth.net give you multiple email accounts free
with your paid service.
9. Do not give any financial information
                     Your money in the bank is the major goal of scammers. So when you are
                   on the situation of asking somebody your financial account which reason is
                   pleasing to the ear such as they are just to check your account and credit
                   card number, specifically you social security number on the phone or
online,        unless you initiate the call and you know the organization you’re dealing with.

10. Do not put an interest into such “win a vacation”
Do not fill out the “win a vacation” and other promotions you see in stores and shopping malls.
Upon writing or entertaining it can give you junk mailing list and guarantee calls from
persistent, high-pressure salesmen.

11. Do not make an advance copy of your driver’s license, telephone, or social security
numbers on your checks.

12. Report lost or stolen checks right away.
The bank can block payment on the check numbers that are missing. Also,
review new checks you receive, to make sure none has been stolen in
transit.

13. Store new and cancelled checks, credit card statements, medical
bills, anything with confidential information, in a safe place and cut or burn
them when you are done with them.
15. Use different cases in selecting Personal Identification
                      Numbers for your ATM and credit cards, and passwords that allow you to
                    access other accounts. Do not use birth dates, a part your Social Security
                    number or driver’s license number, address, nor children’s or spouse names.

                      16. Make use of a good anti-virus software anti-adware software and a
                      hardware firewall on your computer, and keep them up to date. You need all
three. Almost all modern Routers (Dlink, LinkSys, NetGear, Buffalo, Airlink, etc.) have a hardware
firewall built in. See the left side of this page for the current recommendation for ant-virus /
anti-malware programs.

17. Don’t make an outgoing mail in your mailbox
Drop it into a secure, official Postal Service collection box. Thieves may use your mail to steal
your identity.

18. Report to the company immediately, if regular bills fail to reach you.
Someone might give a false record of you and your family to divert your information to his or
her address.

19. If your bills include suspicious charges, do not ignore it.
Instead, investigate immediately to head off any possible fraud before it occurs.
20. Check your credit report every day.
Federal laws enable you to acquire one form credit report from each of the
3 major credit reporting agencies per year.
22. Stop purchasing a product or render any services to any
                               company that sends you spam.
                    Do not even visit their sites or ask for more information. Always bare in mind
                    that, since they send out millions of spam emails, they only need a tiny
                    fraction of responses to be profitable. And if that doesn’t convince you,
                    consider this: the vast majority of spam “offers” are in fact scams.

23. Filter your email program
Outlook does this quite easily. When you open an email and realize that it is spam, just click on
Actions then Create Rule, then select an appropriate action, such as “from” then click “Move e-
mail to folder” and select the “Deleted Items” folder. That’s it! You’ll never receive email from
that particular address or subject again.

          1. Do not post your address in HTML format
Otherwise you will be spammed, since address-harvesting spiders (programs) extract your email
address from the website and add it to the spammer’s lists. Instead use feedback forms through
PHP, ASP, or JSP that hide the email address, OR post the email address as a GIF (image file).

          2. Do not get so exited
If someone emailed you or sends you message or acknowledgement that
you win from lottery or any raffles from a “randomly selected from a
database of email addresses.”Lastly, Multi-level marketing is a scam.
