Guide Your Family to Protect
Them From Credit Card Fraud
www.BadCREDITResources.com
The Internet is full of
fraudsters!
Everyone knows it, and people
who use the internet regularly have
learned to avoid the most common
online scams./
Unfortunately scammers have
learned that while their tricks may
not work on the average internet
user.
Here are a few tips you can share
with the senior citizens in your
life!
 Make sure they understand that they should
never respond to people they don’t know who are
desperate for help.
There are a lot of free software on the net.
Unfortunately they are usually bundled with additional
software that will report back to the owners of the
software credit card numbers, bank logins etc
 DO NOT let that site scan their computer. It will
create a back door into their computer or load a key
logger onto their computer and every time they login to
a site they will expose their passwords to the scam
artist.
 Is that email really from their bank, or is it part of
some phishing scheme?
 Make sure they understand that the only
time you put your credit card number into a
website is if you see the https: in front of the
url.
 Many credit card companies have a service where
you can give them all your credit card numbers and if
your credit cards get stolen or you see unusual activity
on a card you can call 1 number and all cards get
cancelled.
 Sign them up for a credit monitoring service
or if they don’t’ apply for credit a lot, they may
want to go with a credit freeze.
 A new fraud going around targeted towards the
elderly is an email or letter supposedly sent from the
tax assessors office.
 It will encourage them to use their “approved”
service for a reverse mortgage.
