Consumers should be careful not to fall for scams through messages on devices
The day
After the Internet, the record industry scams is the telephone. Unemployment and the economic recession lead people to believe benefits, promises and sweepstakes. So, this time, the coup acts. Phrases like "you won a car and a house" make easy prey for scams via telephone. The emotional fragility of people who receive messages via mobile phone or links helps them to transfer data and information, that is, they will answer questions that allow the involvement in the coup. Another common method is to ask for a deposit of a sum of value to give the false prize. How to prevent? Always suspicious. Distrust prizes and raffles which did not participate. Hang up the phone and call that company. Call you. Never deposit money in foreign accounts. And much less provide your personal data.
