first we need to recognize methods scams. Experts of the Centre for digital expertise Roskoshestvo called five of the most popular schemes. Option one: email is sent to confirm the registration on the website an unknown company, with previews like this: “Dear(Aya)… State. gives Lotto tickets – https://…” and a phishing link inside. Technically it’s just a notification of registration on third-party website, where instead of user name specify the name of the “lottery”.
Option two: you get the usual spam masquerading as an official notification. For example, about the “special draw of the anniversary series tickets” with free participation. If the user decides to click on the link in the email (don’t do this ever!), you will see a landing page of the “special raffle of the anniversary series tickets” – this is a trap.
a third Option (often as a continuation of the second): the victim was allowed to choose one of the supposedly randomly generated tickets, which must match, for example, 4 numbers out of 6. Credibility is achieved by the fact that the win does not occur immediately, but only the second and third times.
a Fourth option: the threat is not the website to which the link in the email and the link. If the victim click on it, the phone or computer can infect “Trojan” that steals money independently. To stop it can only installed and updated antivirus which will expose the malware and will not allow you to follow the link.
the Fifth option concerns the users of social networks: Fraudsters often carry out pranks pricey smartphone or a nice trifle: puzzles, manicure kit or tools, tights, handmade chess, and more.
