Lately, I’ve been receiving several scam emails. These emails led me to believe that maybe my Pay Pal or Ebay accounts had been compromised. However, this isn’t the case.
What these offenders are trying to do is capture my information so that they can log into my accounts and steal from them.
You should be aware of this too.
Here are a few things you need to look for:
1. These emails won’t include your name, email, or username. This is because the person sending you the email doesn’t have this information.
2. The links encoded into the email are not from Ebay, Pay Pal, your bank, or any other legitimate entity. You can tell the difference by running your mouse over the link to see what the link really is.
The best way to protect yourself from these scammers is to:
1. Delete these emails. If you have an account with the site in question, then open up a new browser window and log in from there. Never click the link in the email.
2. Look for your name, email address, or some other identifying information in the email. This way, if there really is a problem, you can log into your account and correct it. Just remember to open a new browser window to do this.
These types of emails aren’t limited to Pay Pal and Ebay. They can basically be from just about anyone impersonating any company. Check it out, but under no circumstances should you ever click the link in the email unless you are absolutely certain who the email is from.
