Vacancy Rewards Scam Prevention Team Warns of Email Scams

Vacancy Rewards Scam prevention team understands that email is a very easy way to communicate to a lot of people. If you are traveling, you may use email to keep in touch with people at home. It is also a way that scam artists are able to try to fool your friends and family into giving them money.

Vacancy Rewards Scam prevention team he way it works is fairly simple. If a hacker has gained access to the contacts in your email, they will send an email out that looks like it is coming from you. The stories in the email will vary, but they essentially say the same thing. The email will tell your contacts that you have lost your wallet and identification while you are traveling in some far off place. They will ask your friends to please wire you some money so that you will be able to get home. If your contacts believe that you are away and that the email is from you, they will send the money, but you will never receive it.

In order to practice scam prevention, you should do a few things.
·        
  •       Keep your email account safe when surfing on a public network. Use firewall and security software to keep the hackers out.

·       
  •              Let people know where you are traveling to. IF they see the email saying you are stuck in a place you were not traveling to, they may not fall for the trick.
  • Set up another email account and add that to your contacts. That means that you will get the fake email and will know if you have to warn others about the scam.
