Scammers often tailor their schemes using details from your social profiles to make their scams more convincing. In other words...it's personal. For instance: - 𝗣𝗼𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗵𝘂𝗿𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗻𝗲 𝘃𝗶𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗺𝘀? Watch out for texts asking you to buy gift cards to aid relief efforts. - 𝗔 𝗳𝗿𝗲𝗾𝘂𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗼𝗻𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝗽𝗽𝗲𝗿? Beware of 'delivery issue' scams asking you to respond to clear customs. - 𝗖𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗸𝗲𝗱 𝗼𝗻 𝗮 𝘃𝗶𝗿𝘂𝘀 𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝗻 𝘀𝗼𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗺𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗮? You might receive a fake alert demanding gift cards to remove a computer virus. - 𝗗𝗶𝘀𝗽𝗹𝗮𝘆𝗶𝗻𝗴 #𝗢𝗽𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗼𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝗼𝗻 𝗟𝗶𝗻𝗸𝗲𝗱𝗜𝗻? Scammers might tempt you with a bogus sweepstakes that requires purchasing a gift card to claim supposed winnings. These scams can seem obvious in hindsight but are often very convincing. Stay vigilant and remember—𝗴𝗶𝗳𝘁 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗱𝘀 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗴𝗶𝗳𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴, 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗽𝗮𝘆𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀.
