SCAMS INFO

Let alone those noble men who are ready to give money to such girls until they suddenly disappear without “thanks”! A sad story, indeed.

Let’s talk about male scammers. Both women and marriage agencies are scared of them. Therefore, they are as numerous as female scammers. The difference is that women tend to get money but men their goals are different. We are going to tell you about some of the types we have divided them into. Hope you are not one of them ?!

1. “Arlekinos and Don Juans”.
Like having fun! They pretend looking for their “one in the world lady” and write letters to women living in different parts of the world. They have the image of passionate lovers. But having fun can also be tiresome and one day our Arlekino removes his mask, turns off the PC and goes on living his usual life. And his unlucky poor “sweetheart” keeps thinking the Internet is a “complete deceit!”

2. “Sexual maniacs”.
No, they are not like serial murderers from Hollywood movies. As a rule, they are old bachelors who have successfully escaped women wishing to marry them. They’ve been singing praises to freedom and sex. Finally they got old and realized that no woman in the world needs them anymore. They have money and think it is an excellent means of making the most beautiful girls in the world willingly fulfill all their desires. Well, they can find someone wishing to move abroad by all means. Of course they are not going to “fulfill all man’s desires” but simply take his money and their surnames can often be seen in criminal lists. That inspires various lawyers to make projects aimed against marriage agencies

3. “Crazy”.
The most dangerous type. Can be detected too late and is always unpredictable. “Crazies” may have serious intentions, long correspondence and meet their women personally. But suddenly they get mad and can do whatever they want.

As a rule, such men have weird jobs, like for example “leave-this-life-consultant”. In other words, their occupation seems strange for normal people but they got to do it for many years every day. You never gonna guess when and how they can go off their head. Women put their lives at stake when meeting them.

4. “Dreamers”.
Dreaming is not harmful. But if you are over 50 and dream to find an 18-year-old virgin from Russia

Don’t get surprised, it is very common. One of our former clients said, “I don’t have much to live and want to spend my time with a young and beautiful wife from Russia.” (The quotation is approximate). Well, he was lucky to find the one who really loves him. But who can guarantee a good marriage to people with the age difference of more than 30 years???? Me? Nope.

I guess these aged men understand everything pretty well and when joining the agency they say their age is around 40:). When starting correspondence they specify incidentally they are almost 50. At last they come to Russia, girls see their passports and need an ambulance! “He is older than my father!!!” Such men are not less dangerous than all others we are telling about here because they deceive women from the very beginning, hurt their feelings in the end and make them waste time. You know, for some women it may be crucial

5. “Married men”
Two subtypes: 1. They are not going to divorce. Perhaps they are scared. Their wives make their lives unbearable and they find women through the Internet to live with them in a virtual world.

2. They were brave enough to leave their wives but got no official divorce. (By the way, they are overwhelming majority. You are one of them? No???)

Women already see themselves WIVES: letters and meetings are wonderful but suddenly a poor woman finds out that he is going to be divorced in a year, not earlier She asks us, “How could he do it with me? Why didn’t he tell me at once? It’s wrong!!!” What can I tell them? And if they knew they couldn’t start getting a visa while their men are still married awful. Besides, a woman is lucky if after divorce her man still has a good income. Otherwise, she is not going to get a fianc

Identity theft, the act of stealing someone’s personal information to use for illegal purposes is a crime that can damage your credit rating, your personal or business reputation, and most assuredly your sanity. Identity theft is also a crime that can be prevented. There are many things we can do to make it at the very least tougher for thieves to steal our personal information.

Check your credit reports regularly. Many smaller charges may never come to your attention but will land on your credit report. Check your credit report carefully and note any accounts that you are sure don’t belong to you. Also, when denied credit because of information in a credit report you are allowed to ask for a free copy of your credit report from the credit bureau that issued the negative information. Once a year, everyone has the right to request a free copy of their credit report from any or all of the three major credit bureaus.

Be wary of credit monitoring offers. Even when purchasing a copy of your credit report from one of the three major credit bureaus, the cost is usually about $9. Why pay the hundreds of dollars that are charged by credit monitoring companies to do the same thing you should do, check your credit report regularly.

Watch out for imposters. Many scam artists attempt to pose as companies you do business with. They can contact you via email, through the mail, or over the phone claiming to need you to verify your personal information. Your suspicion should be heightened if you are contacted by a company asking you for information they should already have. Before responding to the inquiries, you should contact the company and ask if the request is truly coming from them.

Guard your sensitive information. The security of your social security number should be highly important to you. Your social security number is the master key that unlocks your identity. With it, crooks can access most anything in your name. Many medical and government institution use your social security number as your account number. Most are able to give you an alternate number to use if you express to them that you don’t want your social security number used. You should only provide your credit card or bank account numbers when you are actually buying something. These numbers could be used to drain your finances without your knowing about it. Also, it is always best to memorize your passwords and PIN numbers. It is far too easy for someone to use these if they find them in your wallet or purse.

Secure your personal information. Your offline world is filled with pieces of paper with your personal information. Whether in your car, at school, at work, or at home you should do your best to secure sensitive information behind a lock. It is also best to send outgoing bill payments from a public mailbox or the post office itself instead of from your house mailbox. Sometimes even incoming junk mail can contain accurate personal information. To properly dispose of these it may be useful to have a small paper shredder.

Get off credit marketing lists. Credit bureaus compile marketing lists for pre-approved offers of credit cards. These mailing lists are a jackpot for scammers and identity thieves. They can use these to apply for a credit card in your name and change the mailing address so it is sent to them instead. You can usually get your contact information removed from these marketing lists by calling 1-888-567-8688.

Protect yourself when online as well. The first thing to know is that email is not a secure method of communication. Do not send sensitive information like credit card numbers, social security numbers, or financial account numbers through email. When doing business with a website, look for clues that tell if it is a secure website or not. Even when getting a message that states your information is encrypted while it’s transferred to the website, you still want to look for information regarding how secure your information is kept by the company who will now have it.

Stay up-to-date on information regarding scams and identity theft. The more knowledge you have, the harder it is for the crooks.

Identity theft fraud in America has reached epidemic proportions having surpassed 27 million cases and increasing every year.

The banks are taking identity theft fraud very seriously and have taken substantial measures to protect your identity and your accounts against scammers.

They have implemented a password protection for online transactions. When you use your online services, keep your secret password protected so only you know what it is.

All online bank transactions are now encrypted which converts your information into a secure code, protecting you against would be hackers.

To protect yourself here are a few more things you should know about preventing identity fraud :

1. Never give out information such as checking and credit card numbers or your Social Security number to anyone you do not know.

2. Notify your bank immediately if you lose or have your checks stolen. They can be flagged with a fraud notice to block payment.

3. Don’t give the PIN number on your ATM card to anyone and never write the number down and keep in your wallet. Always take your ATM receipts with you after a transaction.

4. Shred any financial papers you receive before disposing of them. This includes any solicitation notices that you may receive for any credit cards or mail from other financial institutions.

5. If you don’t receive a regular monthly bill, call the company to find out why.

6. Check out the bills you do receive to make sure all the transactions are legitimate. If there is anything suspicious call the company immediately to stop any fraud from going any further.

7. Check your credit report at least once a year to make sure the information is correct.

In December 2004 the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act was put into effect and one provision requires that the three major credit reporting agencies are to provide consumers with a free copy of their own credit report.

Another provision to help fight identity theft is the National Fraud Alert System. This allows consumers who reasonably suspect they have been a victim of identity theft can place an alert on their credit files. This alert will tell potential creditors that they must proceed with caution when granting credit.

Scammers can get the information they need to assume your identity from a variety of sources. They range from stealing your wallet to digging in your trash. They may approach you in person, by telephone or on the Internet.

The sources of information about you are so numerous that you cannot totally prevent the theft of your identity. But identity theft fraud can be minimized by just becoming aware of the possibilities.
