INTERNET SCAMS / PHISHING

Phishing attacks are when a fraudster creates an email or advertisement to trick the recipient. They play on human emotions like anxiety and pity to get people to give up sensitive information or complete a financial transaction. You’ve probably seen phishing emails in your own inbox. Messages saying your account is in arrears, or your family member is in trouble and needs you to send money. Sadly in a lot of cases, money or gifts that have been handed over to these fraudsters or malicious internet hunters can never be recovered, primarily due to the methodology of their payment requests.
