Attention How can the fraud be known while complaining about online fraud? FBI told measures to stay safe

What if you report fraud and become a victim of fraud again? It will be like sprinkling salt on the burn. There have been many cases in the US where cyber criminals create false websites by copying government sites that register fraud and refresh people again. In light of this, FBI issued a warning. What is the whole thing? Internet Crime Claint Center is a Portal from FBI where a report on cybercrime is reported. Last year, more than 800,000 complaints were filed, causing a loss of $ 16.6 billion. Now cyber criminals have made a fake portal by copying this portal. The domain name is also similar, making it difficult for people to identify the right website. So if anyone wants to report fraud, he is sent to a false portal, where cyber criminals steal sensitive information such as his name, address, e -mail address and banking details. FBI issued an advice in this case. It is noteworthy that this is not the first case. According to some reports, cyber criminals are also chasing people by becoming government officials. How to protect yourself? Before submitting a complaint to any portal, keep track of the URL carefully. Be careful if you see a spelling error. While submitting your complaints online, always enter the full URL and avoid clicking on any other link that appears in the search results. Before submitting the complaint, carefully review the portal and contact the agency concerned if something is suspected of being suspected. No government official ever asks you information like your PIN number. If someone asks for such sensitive information from you, you must understand that you are cheated. Share this story -tags
