You are minding your own business and are having a great day. But suddenly you receive a message, which reads that you have just won a lottery of $100,000 and to claim the prize, you need to call the provided number! The first thing that crosses your mind is what you are going to do with all the money and then you think this is too good to be true! Well, the second thought is the actual case here!
How To Get The Best Of Scammers:
Well, most of the time whenever we receive such kind of messages we just call or do whatever the message asks us to and end up getting scammed. But here are a few steps that you can follow whenever you receive such kinds of messages.
Check with Yourself:
The first thing that you need to do is check with yourself whether you have bought an actual ticket or not. If you haven’t then you can quite easily understand that it’s a scam.
But if your answer is yes, then check which company sent you the message and whether the company name is mentioned on the ticket or not. If nothing is written there then you can get in touch with the company via email and check with them.
Information Asked:
The next thing that you need to check is what information they have asked for to claim the reward. Mostly, what fraudsters do is ask for some sort of personal information. The personal information could be anything from Passport ID number to bank details.
If such things are there in the message then the next thing that you have to do delete the totojitu message immediately. The reason for deleting the message is that you never know when unknowingly you may reply to the message and provide your personal information to the scammers.
Depositing Money:
There are quite a few messages that will tell you to deposit a certain amount to retrieve the jackpot money. Well, if you come across any such kind of message, simply delete it. No, genuine lottery company will ever ask you to deposit money.
This is just a ruse made up by the scammer to get your money. Most people find the amount to be quite less and they mistakenly send the money to the scammers, which never bears any fruit in totojitu.
Secret Amount:
Few fake messages will claim that the winning amount is a secret until it gets deposited in your account. You can just go ahead and delete the message without verifying anything. All legitimate lottery companies will always provide you with a clear picture of how much is your winning amount, instead of hiding it. So, be sure to delete any such kind of messages.
A lottery amount of $100,000 can be quite tempting but you need to very vigilant about it and be sure to check these points before moving forward with such kinds of messages.
