Defend against online scams. Facing Online Scams: Recognize, Resist, Recover with Expert Assistance from Dr. Gustavo Scriffignano, of Bertaggia International Law Firm
The digital era, while offering convenience and connectivity, brings with it the constant threat of online scams. It’s crucial to understand fraudsters’ tactics to protect your data and finances. In this article, we’ll explore some of the most common techniques used by scammers and how to defend against them.
Smishing: The Hidden Danger in Messages
Smishing, or SMS phishing, is an increasingly prevalent practice. You might receive a message that appears to come from your bank, with an alarming text and an apparently official link. Beware: clicking on these links can lead to fake web pages trying to collect your sensitive data or requiring the download of malicious applications.
Vishing: The Voice Scam Not to Underestimate
After a smishing attempt, the scammer might try to call you, utilizing vishing (voice phishing). Posing as a bank representative, they could ask for sensitive information or push you to take risky actions, such as making transfers or payments. Remember: your bank will never call you to request full secret codes or sensitive information.
Spoofing: When the Call Seems Legitimate
The fraudster might use spoofing to make your bank’s number appear as the caller, deceiving you about the real source of the call. In some cases, they might send SMS that seems to come from your bank, creating an illusion of authenticity.
How to Defend Yourself: Legal Tips to Follow
Remember that your bank will never ask for full secret codes, OTP codes, or payment card details over the phone or via SMS. Additionally, they will never ask you to transfer money to block suspicious payments or for security verifications.
