CAUTION TO BE TAKEN ABOUT THE PROBLEM OF SCAM .

WE WONDER AT WHAT SCAM REALLY IS AND WHAT IT IS ALL ABOUT?,FROM MY LITTLE UNDERSTANDING:IT IS A PROCESS WHERE ONE SHAKES HAND WITH YOU AS A FRIEND ON GROUNDS OF BUSINESS OR FRIENDSHIP AND THEN TURNS BACK TO SMACK OR SLAP YOU IN THE FACE.

THE FACTORS WHICH MAKES US VICTIMS COULD BE AS A RESULT OF WILL FOR BETTER LIFE ,GREED,STUPIDITY AND SOMETIMES IGNORANCE AND WE ARE SOMETIMES LIKE AN OPEN SEA WITHOUT BORDER OR BOUNDARIES,THAT NEEDS GUIDANCE AND ADVICE OR ELSE TOTAL POLLUTION OR DISASTER.IF YOU ARE SO BLINDED BY GREED,THAT ALL YOU CAN THINK ABOUT IS WHEN DO I GET CHECK?,WHEN DO I GET PAID?,HOW MUCH MONEY WILL I MAKE NEXT WEEK?,THEN YOU NEED TO BECAREFUl.

SCAM  GENERATED FROM AN INSATIABLE WANT OF MAN,WHICH CAN BE AS A RESULT OF WILL FOR BETTER LIFE ,GREED,IGNORANCE AND STUPIDITY,  WHICH SOMETIMES GIVES ROOM FOR MANIPULATION BY THE BAD EGGS OF THE SOCIETY.IT CAN NOT BE DETERMINED WHEN SCAMMING STARTED BUT, IT REVOLVES ROUND PERSONAL,BUSINESS AND GENERAL ISSUES ESPECIALLY MONEY.

PEOPLE ARE SCAMMED THROUGH DIFFERENT MEDIA FOR EXAMPLE: INTERNET,TELEPHONE AND OTHER MEANS OF COMMUNICATION AND GENERALLY THROUGH DAY TO DAY CONTACTS.

THE QUESTION IS WHAT CAN WE DO TO ADDRESS OR AVOID THIS PROBLEM  THAT EATS THROUGH OUR SYSTEM?

• BE CAREFUL WITH WHOM YOU DEAL WITH,ESPECIALLY A STRANGER.
• USE SEPARATE EMAIL ADDRESS WHEN YOU POST MESSAGES TO ANY PUBLIC FORUM.
• DONT GIVE OUT ANY FINANCIAL INFORMATION.
• SET UP FILTERS IN YOUR EMAIL.
• AVOID ANY OF THE QUICK MONEY MAKING PROGRAMS YOU SEE ADVERTISED ON TV,RADIO,PRINT OR THE INTERNET.

WHAT WOULD BE YOUR SUGGESTION?
