Sadly, this nightmare is a reality for thousands of South Africans every year.<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\" xml_lang=\"en-uk\">\u201cDurbanville police are becoming inundated with members of the community being scammed by these fraudsters. The type of fraud that mostly impact the Durbanville community include bank fraud, fraud with online shopping sites such as Facebook Marketplace, as well as online pet sales, phishing scams and the lonely hearts scam,\u201d Landman said.<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"h6\" xml_lang=\"en-uk\">\n<div class=\"p\" xml_lang=\"en-uk\">\n<h3>Claims to be from bank<\/h3>\n<p>\u201cNew types of scams continue to emerge in which fraudsters lure you into providing your confidential info \u2013 via email, SMS, a phone call, malware or remote access. Anyone can be a target.<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\" xml_lang=\"en-uk\">\n<p>\u201cUltimately, it\u2019s up to us to stay informed about scams and think twice before sharing personal details online or over the phone,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<div contenteditable=\"false\" data-embed24=\"Blockquote\" data-pos=\"Middle\" id=\"embed_a26083c3\">\n<div class=\"text\">\u201cUltimately, it\u2019s up to us to stay informed about scams and think twice before sharing personal details online or over the phone,\u201d <\/div>\n<div class=\"citation\">Adam Landman<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Banking fraud may involve fraudsters impersonating your bank, calling customers to request OTPs (one-time PINs), pin numbers or personal account details. Fraudsters are now also instructing customers to conduct transactions such as Instant Money and Electronic Financial Transfers (EFT).<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\" xml_lang=\"en-uk\">\n<div class=\"p\" xml_lang=\"en-uk\">\n<div class=\"p\" xml_lang=\"en-uk\">\n<p>\u201cYou receive a phone call from someone claiming to be from your bank or bank fraud department. They inform you that the security of your account or funds are compromised or suspicious activity has been detected on your account.<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\" xml_lang=\"en-uk\">\n<p>\u201cYou are then instructed to conduct transactions such as Instant Money and Electronic Financial Transfers (EFT).<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\" xml_lang=\"en-uk\">\n<p>\u201cThe Instant Money may be to your own number or an alternative number, which may show up as your banks number on caller identification apps such as Truecaller,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\" xml_lang=\"en-uk\">\n<p>\u201cYou may be asked to transfer funds to a \u2018safe account\u2019. You\u2019re then provided with an alternative account number to transfer funds into, claiming that it is for \u2018safekeeping\u2019 and to \u2018prevent the fraud from happening\u2019,\u201d Landman said.<\/p>\n<div class=\"h6\" xml_lang=\"en-uk\">\n<h3>Online goods fraud<\/h3>\n<div class=\"p\" xml_lang=\"en-uk\">\n<p>\u201cFraudsters infiltrate online platforms for buying and selling goods. You\u2019re asked to pay upfront to buy on the site. You pay the seller, but the goods are never delivered and all communication thereafter ignored,\u201d he warned.<\/p>\n<div contenteditable=\"false\" data-embed24=\"Blockquote\" data-pos=\"middle\" id=\"embed_7b25cd15\">\n<div class=\"text\">\u201cFraudsters infiltrate online platforms for buying and selling goods. You\u2019re asked to pay upfront to buy on the site. You pay the seller, but the goods are never delivered and all communication thereafter ignored,\u201d<\/div>\n<div class=\"citation\">Adam Landman<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"p\" xml_lang=\"en-uk\">\n<p>\u201cNever pay for goods upfront. Insist on viewing the items especially when purchasing from an independent seller.<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\" xml_lang=\"en-uk\">\n<p>\u201cThe seller doesn\u2019t want you to view the goods but puts you under pressure to make the payment,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\" xml_lang=\"en-uk\">\n<p>\u201cMake use of an Escrow service to reduce the risk of fraud when buying products or services online.<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\" xml_lang=\"en-uk\">\n<p>\u201cMake online purchases using your credit card or virtual card rather than your debit card.<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\" xml_lang=\"en-uk\">\n<p>\u201cNever purchase any goods before viewing them in person. Insist that the seller provides a real-time video. Make use of reverse image searches to check pics allegedly displaying your purchase,\u201d he urged.<\/p>\n<div class=\"h6\" xml_lang=\"en-uk\">\n<p>Internet pet sale scams<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\" xml_lang=\"en-uk\">\n<p>\u201cThe scammers know that buying pure-bred dogs from breeders is expensive and that many people may not want to be on the waiting lists that normally apply when going through breeders.<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\" xml_lang=\"en-uk\">\n<p>\u201cSo the scammers create official-looking websites, often using KUSA\u2019s branding, where dogs are advertised at cheaper prices than they are available elsewhere and with the promise of rapid delivery.<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\" xml_lang=\"en-uk\">\n<p>\u201cCommunication with clients is made with WhatsApp or email as the scammers want to be able to hide their accents, as they are often not from South Africa.<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\" xml_lang=\"en-uk\">\n<p>\u201cOnce the scammers receive payment, they will be on to their next part of the scam. They will often concoct a bogus reason for why they can\u2019t deliver the puppy or kitten, which requires you to pay more money.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\" xml_lang=\"en-uk\">\n<p>Landman advised that people should be concerned if a website is selling multiple different breeds of dogs or cats.<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\" xml_lang=\"en-uk\">\n<p>\u201cCheck online sources that provide lists of the many fraudulent pet sales sites online,\u201d he advised.<\/p>\n<div class=\"h6\" xml_lang=\"en-uk\">\n<h3>Phishing Scams<\/h3>\n<div class=\"p\" xml_lang=\"en-uk\">\n<p>Phishing is when fraudsters send you unsolicited emails in which they claim to be from a reliable organisation, like your bank, a business or a service provider, Landman said.<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\" xml_lang=\"en-uk\">\u201cYou receive an email request to update or confirm your details by clicking on a link or an icon, or to open an attachment. This results in malware (malicious software) being deployed on your device. <p><\/p>\n<div class=\"p\" xml_lang=\"en-uk\">\n<p>\u201cIt can also compromise your personal or digital banking credentials,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\" xml_lang=\"en-uk\">\n<p>What you can do to protect yourself? \u201cSend an email with the suspicious email attached to it to your bank.<\/p>\n<div contenteditable=\"false\" data-embed24=\"Blockquote\" data-pos=\"middle\" id=\"embed_94163bb1\">\n<div class=\"text\">\u201cInstall good antivirus software.

Always check the senders\u2019 email address and details, to ensure it is legitimate.<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\" xml_lang=\"en-uk\">\n<p>\u201cAlways confirm with your bank, business, or institution that has sent you the email if you have any doubts,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\" xml_lang=\"en-uk\">\n<p>The Lonely Hearts Scam is a dating and romance scam that typically plays on your emotional and compassionate side in an attempt to steal funds.<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\" xml_lang=\"en-uk\">\n<p>\u201cFraudsters create fake profiles on legitimate dating websites or social media platforms and lure them into an online \u2018relationship\u2019.<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\" xml_lang=\"en-uk\">\u201cThey invite you to be their friend or talk to them online. They will share fake personal information to build trust and create a relationship with you.<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"p\" xml_lang=\"en-uk\">\n<p>\u201cOnce you\u2019ve sent them money, you\u2019ll likely never hear from them again,\u201d Landman warned.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<div contenteditable=\"false\" data-embed24=\"InfoBlock\" data-pos=\"middle\" id=\"embed_d832594e\">\n<div
