PROTECT YOURSELF AGAINST FRAUDSTERS (Scam every where)
Scam is becoming a common thing in the society today.... It is something that shouldn't be in anyway encouraged, but now it's the most trending corrupt initiative...
[Image Source: pixabay. Public domain licensed]Should I call scammers thieves or what?
How can someone be so heartless! So cruel to the extent of duping a fellow person like himself who is managing the little he/she has...
The unbelievable thing is that; the easiest people to dupe are those with little assets and funds and this are the main target of this Scam freaks
I think we really need to wise up...
Here in Nigeria, Scam as become an everyday thing that almost every one who is desperately seeking for money indulge in. You'll be amazed that even those whom you least expect will be found guilty if you properly look into some scam cases... But the most painful thing is you'll hardly know who did it...
I almost got scammed some days ago, and I feel I need to call our attention to this... For everyone who uses a bank account, we really need to be very more careful with the kinds of messages we look into...
Before following the Instructions of a message especially the one that seem to come from your bank, and requires you to input your Bank pin, serial number, and Bvn number you should call your bank to confirm first.
Or better still report to your bank immediately, and you can also halt them from sending messages to your mobile-phone and send to your email instead... This is very possible...
Below is the scam message I received;
ALERT: ACCT***T Disabled;;;; CUSTOMER due to an upgrade in the bank your A.T.M debit card was been blocked, to enable... CALL: +2349031358190.
You can imagine...
I have been receiving this scam alerts occasionally and I use to wonder, "do this people even have any other work they do at all?"
Because I do not only receive it on my Airtel line, I also receive it on my MTN, and I know a lot of people would have been victims of this Scam trade
This are few out of the screenshots I took.
This is a very important information, let's take it serious and make sure we are cautious enough. You don't need to be scammed before you agree that you can get scammed. Always be cautious and be at alert always... Pay attention to the kind of link you click on, and places you put your mobile number and email, and most importantly - response you give to a message that you're a little skeptical about...
