How to be safe online 2015 part II

[Part 2]

The other part of it that is very crucial is the person on the inside, who usually help the scam or con artist get your money, that is, the money to be collected from the "client", and have it wire or western union to the fraudsters final address. The insider is known as "the picker", and they are usually between some useless and jobless someone who is actually a citizen from any of the developed countries and their duty is just to get a western union cashed, take their share as agreed between then and the con artist, because, some times, they too are lied to in the sense that, the con artist tells them "the picker", he or she that, they will be working for them and they are usually gotten from some classified ads via Craigslist.com, and some many other classified ads sites and the other means the con artist recruits them is via spam mails, where he or she sent out many emails seeking for someone who can do or work or pick up cash from their clients that is not genuine but, they are lied to that, it is a genuine business they are getting into and as such, they are going to get paid for it. Some of them at the long run knew later on what the scam or con artist is up to but decided to stay, some stayed so that they could steal a huge sum of money later from the con artist itself, after all, there is no honor amongst thieves.
1. Con or scam artist
2. Client
3. Picker (insider)
4. Classified ads

Henceforth, the following are part of the methods the con or scam artists uses up to date:
1. Military dating
2. Dating sites
3. Social network sites
4. Apartment 5 and etc

Let me try to explain them one by one and as briefly as possible because, i don't wan this block turning into a book. Laugh out loud.

So, the (1). Military dating involves the scam or con artist to scavenge for military picture and documents online, as there are several file sharing servers online which makes this processes a lot smoother for them to gather these materials and documents, besides, there are some obnoxious military men out there that posts virtually everything about their lives, mission and life and these con artist are always happy every time they stumbled upon such a person, and these are used on and all over many dating sites they can find and they use the term "bomb", whenever they have searched for their clients which they are going to be impersonating a military person which they already gathered enough details and documents about, including designing leave form, and many other military letters copying logos from the united state official websites so, maybe is time for the so called developed countries to be using a different logo entirely different from any of the website logo they must have used which is exposed to the entire world. They will pretend to be the military person and then starts looking for people to befriend and then they will start lying from time to time and once you have been cajoled into thinking you are dating each others, from then they will start strategizing how and when to "bill" you which is their term for when they want to start collecting your money once or if you have been gullible enough to their plans of deceit.

Second on my list is (2). Dating sites (mate.com, match.com, mate1.com, Anastasia.com, lovoo.com, wayn.com and etc, this method require similar to the military but this time, the scam artist gathered beautiful pictures of some careless models, either male or femile, look for some reigning dating sites, register with some form names and register email similar and then start bombing, after which they will bill once they have caught their pray and then move on to the next target and etc... Is repetition of the Military scam but with some models pictures lying around online and then proceed to harm other people who have falling victim of their enticement and etc

They always have an insider whom helps to get any money your sent to them if they are working together or that person too is a victim of been hired (lied to) and then they plan everything so that it doesn't spook you and even though it doesn't sound suspicious, they are.

3. Social network sites (facebook.com, twitter.com, match.com, tagged.com, hi5.com, and etc) similar to the previous two, in order words, they only get their victims from the aforementioned social sites, cajoled them with the pictures they scavenged and then start collecting money from their victims and etc.

4. Apartment (usually these fetches them money from the innocent in that time of the year when people usually changes apartment and trying to relocate to other states and the victims are usually from the USA, Canada, and some EU countries and not limited to the UK This is simple when they pretend to be the real estate manager by reposting the ads for all major classified ads sites from craigslist and etc and then claiming to text you over google voice sms which was registered for them by someone they cajoled to be working for them and unknown to that one too, he is being manipulated and not a real job, because that one mission is just to post ads on classified ads site because of the IP issues and that one job was just to post and they are the one feeding him with details of what he is going to be posting. This will be nurtured within a shorter time since they are going to be telling you that they have other people who are interested in the same apartment and all this is just too get to inspired and hurried up so that you send the money to their picker which will in turn send the money to them.

 A word they say is enough for the wise, these articles, forward and share with your friends and let it go viral so that, you can teach people out there to be wise and they shouldn't send money or anything to anybody no matter where they are, no matter the excuse for the money because, they will deceive you they needed money to call in for their leaves and etc for those into the military dating, they will also make so many excuses just to get you to pay them.

Always go to the address and verify to see the owner or the house agent in person and as a matter of fact, offer to pay money directly to the housing agent and get your receipt immediately too and the keys to the apartment you just rented.

Avoid being scam or con please so that you can stop pointing accusing fingers since you are from a developed countries, I wonder why someone from undeveloped country can be that smarter.

Told ya, Africa is the cradle of civilisation.
