An Easy Way to Avoid Fraud

I make plain a lacework venue on the concern of fraud. I personally have been scammed on eBay, have been a prey Of Identity Theft, commonly manifest " Phishing "and a Telemarketing scam.

Fraud is on the developing particularly on the Internet and intensely especially on online auction sites. Its reported that 65% of impostor cases are related to eBay and its sister organization Paypal.

They are both reputable but furnish a tremendous opportunity for fraud. Tracking apart and prosecuting these criminals is virtually silly as they usually control from overseas. They defy any and all laws s o the only way to defeat them is through education and vigilance on our part.

I've learned the hard way and I constantly research the subject for my web site. I and others mind me have drop in developing with all kinds of bigger ways to Identify and avoid fraudulent schemes and the perpetrators.

I'm not sure thats the best or easiest approach.

I'll lay it out for you very simply in two simple easy to follow rules.

Dealing on eBay all I can say is "Let the Buyer Beware." Visit www.caveatemptorus.com for numerous articles about eBay.

For all other situations follow these two simple rules:

1. Be suspicious of all e-mail and unsolicited phone calls.

2. Never answer either directly.

If it's something you are interested in Go right now to the source. Do not use links or phone numbers that you are given.Know whom you're dealing with.
