TOP 5 ONLINE FREE MONEY SCAMS EXPLAINED

DON'T BE A SUCKER FOR AN ONLINE SCAM

 IF YOU MUST GIVE OUT INFORMATION THAN GET CALL BACK NUMBERS\ AND CHECK WITH THE BBB, IRS, STATE, FED, YOUR LAWYER, OR SOMEONE YOU TRUST. UNTIL YOU ARE absolutely COMFORTABLE\ YOUR ARE NOT DEALING WITH A SCAMMER GIVE UP NOTHING,. 

ANYONE CAN BE FOOLED AND THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF BASTARDS ALL OVER THE WORLD WHO SPEND THEIR TIME WAITING TO FLEECE YOU. STOP THEM. ASSUME EVERY STRANGER IS A SCAMMER.

IT IS EASY TO GET CONVINCED  BY A PILE OF HUMAN GARBAGE OUT THERE WHO WANTS TO RIP YOU OFF. 

THEY PROBABLY CANNOT SCAM IF YOU DO NOT GIVE UP YOUR SOCIAL SECURITY, NUMBER,  BIRTHDAY, BANK ACCOUNT,  AND EMAIL

We’ve grown so comfortable using the internet that it’s easy to forget there are people out there who are up to no good. Cybercriminals like to create scam websites and online and verbal scams so that they can trick victims into willingly handing over information or money.

Not much is changing at the turn of the decade, with many of the most popular online scams for 2020 looking like familiar foes. By learning about the most common tactics and pairing that information with security solutions like Norton 360, you can be better prepared to face these cyber threats in the new year.

1. Phishing

What it is: Phishing is one of the most common cyberthreats around, yet it continues to be equally as effective. Phishers take on the persona of someone trustworthy – a friend, neighbour or colleague – in an attempt to get you to hand over information or click a malicious link via email, social media or other messaging apps like WhatsApp.

Phishing attempts take place worldwide every single month and while they often take place through email, cybercriminals are expanding their approach to cover wherever you might talk with someone one-on-one on the internet.

How to spot it: The most important step in spotting a phishing attempt is to take your time reviewing the email or message. This will help you spot inconsistencies, like misspelled names, poor grammar in the text and links that don’t lead to the place they should.

For the last one, hover over a link with your mouse cursor if you’re unsure of it. In the bottom left-hand corner, you’ll see the full URL – and know if they’re sending you to a real or scam website.

2. Fake antivirus software

What it is: If you’re browsing the web and all of a sudden you get a pop up saying that your computer is now infected, chances are it’s an online scam.

In reality, these fake antivirus software ads and pop ups want you to download their free software, which will only give you a virus, malware or ransomware, among other cyberthreats.

How to spot it: Only trust virus information from your antivirus – and if you don’t have one, make sure to get one now.

Be wary of any pop ups with flashy lights or that urge you to take action immediately by downloading an application. A real antivirus solution, like Norton AntiVirus Plus, will take care of your issues in the background and while it may ask you to take an action, it’ll likely only notify you once the cyber threat has been resolved.


3. Make money easy and fast scam

What it is: We’d all like to make easy money quickly, and cybercriminals use that to prey on unsuspecting users.

These scam websites, which often say you can make a week’s worth of salary in just a few hours, lure you in with false promises. They then get you to hand over personal and financial information, often sensitive by nature.

How to spot it: A little bit of common sense goes a long way. While we all dream of being paid large sums of money in exchange for doing nearly nothing, the chances of that being real are slim.

If you’re considering a make money easy and fast scam, be on the lookout for advertisements that say it takes little to no skill to get involved, that you can set your own hours or that you need to pay to get started. If the method to earn easy and fast cash really existed, it’s unlikely it’d be widely shared.

4. Fake shopping websites and formjacking

What it is: Here’s a two-parter: there are thousands of websites out there which try to make you believe they’re the real deal and a part of your favourite brands. These websites, which are mostly unknown, try to scam you, even giving you “great deals” that are up to 75 percent off.

Similarly, groups of cybercriminals are now commonly using formjacking – a new cyberthreat that steals credit card information. This can happen when a legitimate e-commerce website is hacked (without the owners knowing), allowing cybercriminals to redirect you to different URLs in the payment process that look similar but actually steal your information.

How to spot it: E-commerce scam websites have a few commonalities. They often have similar but not identical URLs to the brand they’re trying to imitate. They also likely have spelling errors and unbelievable prices that you won’t find anywhere else – because they’re not real. Instead, they either ship you fake items or take your money and don’t give you anything in return.

Keeping on the lookout for formjacking is more difficult. As you enter the page to put in your credit card details, double check the URL to make sure you’re still on the exact same website that you came from. These cybercriminals will often change the URL very slightly – like adding or taking away a single letter – to avoid detection.

5. Tech support scam

What it is: Taking the form of either a phone call or an advertisement, tech support impersonators contact a user to tell them that their computer or device is infected – often without even seeing the device beforehand.

After prompting the user to download an application that lets them control the computer remotely, these cybercriminals download actual viruses or give the illusion that something is wrong with the device. Then, they ask for money to fix the problem.

How to spot it: Know that Microsoft, Google, Apple – pick whichever company you want – will never ever call you to tell you that something is wrong with your computer. At the very most, they may send an email saying that something is wrong with your device and that you should call them. Always double check that these numbers are the real support numbers via a Google search.

Similarly, be wary of any tech support that charges large sums of money to fix your PC or Mac. These sums often total half or more of what the actual device is worth. Scam websites can also pay for advertising on Google to show up when someone searches for tech support, which means your best bet for getting help for your device is often contacting the manufacturer itself.

Knowing about these five popular online scams is a great start. Pairing this knowledge with a comprehensive single solution like Norton 360 can add another layer of protection for when you’re online banking, on social media or browsing

FREE MONEY FOR OPENING A CHECKING ACCOUNT

                 WHAT IS SO HARD ABOUT MAKING FREE MONEY?

 A lot of banks are handing out free stacks of cash? Why. According to Bankrate, sign-up bonuses are used “to distinguish themselves from others in the industry. Cash bonuses also help financial institutions bring in new customers and new deposits.”

As of July 2020, the best savings account bonuses, as ranked by Bankrate, are:

  • Associated Bank: $500 bonus
  • Wells Fargo Bank: $400 bonus
  • HSBC Bank: $200 or $450 bonus
  • TD Bank: $150 or $300 bonus
  • Chase Bank: $200 or $300 bonus
  • PNC Bank: $50, $200 or $300 bonus
  • Huntington National Bank: $150 or $200 bonus
  • SunTrust (Truist) Bank: $200 or $400 bonus
  • Bank of America: $100 bonus

As for the best checking and savings, Bankrate lists the following:

  • Citibank: $200, $400 or $700 bonus
  • Citizens Bank: $100, $200, $300 bonus

If you don’t want to open a new account, you should at least upgrade your existing savings account to a high-yield online savings account. Then again. I can’t see why you wouldn’t want to get more bang for your buck and do both.

Punch up Free Money on #Google and your on your way. Despite how tight times are banks will still pay you for your business. I have done it.

Just follow the rules carefully and pick up easy cash/

Good luck.

ONLINE GAMBLING SUCKS YOUR MONEY AWAY

WHY GAMBLING IS A LOSING IDEA  

This article was copied from  Counselor Sams Blog feedspot.com 10/23/2020 (attribution)

Participation in online gambling saw an increase, according to media reports, throughout the early months of COVID-19 restrictions with many sports suspended, and pubs, clubs and casinos temporarily closed. There was a risk that those who preferred to gamble in venue would turn to online gambling during this time.

Several restrictions have now eased as clubs and hotels reopened for business and the NRL and AFL competitions resumed, meaning more gambling options are available again. While online gambling could have been a distraction from boredom during restrictions, some may continue to gamble online, but it’s important to remember it’s not always worth the risk

In Australia, online gambling is regulated by the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA). Online casino games and slot machines using real money are illegal in Australia, so if you come across a site offering these games online, it is most likely they are operated in another country even though they look Australian.

Before you gamble online, check if it’s a legal website on this register of licensed providers in Australia. If it’s not on the register it could be illegal.

  1. Online gambling is not a fair game: Some gambling sites may look and feel legitimate, however, they may be based overseas outside the jurisdiction of Australian laws and consumer protections. Although over 65 of these sites have been blocked under Australian law, new sites appear all the time and many are targeted to Australians. On these black-market sites, you’re likely to get ripped off. If you win, you may never see your winnings. The site may disappear with your money or steal from your bank accounts. Unfortunately, you might not realise the site is dodgy until it’s too late. These sites are the gambling equivalent of scaling up a cliff-face without a rope or support. Information on gambling on overseas websites can be found on the Gambling Help NSW website. Further information about protecting yourself from illegal online gambling sites is available on the ACMA website. 
  2. The odds are against you: Although many online gambling providers sell themselves as an easy way to make money, a bit of harmless fun, like any form of gambling, the house always wins. The system is set up to make the owners money. They will always take their percentages and the gambler will always lose in the long run.  To find out more information on the real odds of winning when gambling, check out the Gambling Help Online website.
  3. Your phone — a ‘casino in your pocket’?: Online gamblers have access to multiple gambling apps on their phone. It’s important to consider how dangerous it is to have such easy access to gambling 24/7. With the new socially distanced lifestyles most of us are still observing under COVID-19, getting into the gambling ‘zone’ has never been easier or riskier. Over the course of an evening, money can leave your credit or debit card with ease.

Recently, Gambling Help counsellors have heard the story of some people gaining early access to their superannuation and losing it within days.

If you need some ideas about how to get started on improving your finances, mental health, or just want to chat, we can help. Get in touch with a trained counselor 24/7 on 1800 858 858 or chat to us online.

If you come across a dodgy gambling provider or want to make a complaint, you can get in touch with ACMA via their website, who will investigate further.

They pay monthly after you make $100.00 It is not sophisticated enough for many experienced bloggers. Look elsewhere for other blogs if you already are an experienced blogger. There are hundreds of millions of people who search and use blogs. At least get in the game.

There are many different types of blogs, differing not only in the type of content, but also in the way that content is delivered or written.


Personal blogs

The personal blog is an ongoing online diary or commentary written by an individual, rather than a corporation or organization. While the vast majority of personal blogs attract very few readers, other than the blogger's immediate family and friends, a small number of personal blogs have become popular, to the point that they have attracted lucrative advertising sponsorship. A tiny number of personal bloggers have become famous, both in the online community and in the real world.

Collaborative blogs or group blogs 

A type of weblog in which posts are written and published by more than one author. The majority of high-profile collaborative blogs are based around a single uniting theme, such as politics, technology or advocacy. In recent years, the blogosphere has seen the emergence and growing popularity of more collaborative efforts, often set up by already established bloggers wishing to pool time and resources, both to reduce the pressure of maintaining a popular website and to attract a larger readership.

Microblogging

Microblogging is the practice of posting small pieces of digital content—which could be text, pictures, links, short videos, or other media—on the Internet. Microblogging offers a portable communication mode that feels organic and spontaneous to many users. It has captured the public imagination, in part because the short posts are easy to read on the go or when waiting. Friends use it to keep in touch, business associates use it to coordinate meetings or share useful resources, and celebrities and politicians (or their publicists) microblog about concert dates, lectures, book releases, or tour schedules. A wide and growing range of add-on tools enables sophisticated updates and interaction with other applications. The resulting profusion of functionality is helping to define new possibilities for this type of communication.[32] Examples of these include Twitter, Facebook, Tumblr and, by far the largest, WeiBo.

Corporate and organizational blogs

A blog can be private, as in most cases, or it can be for business or not-for-profit organization or government purposes. Blogs used internally, and only available to employees via an Intranet are called corporate blogs. Companies use internal corporate blogs enhance the communication, culture and employee engagement in a corporation. Internal corporate blogs can be used to communicate news about company policies or procedures, build employee esprit de corps and improve morale. Companies and other organizations also use external, publicly accessible blogs for marketing, branding, or public relations purposes. Some organizations have a blog authored by their executive; in practice, many of these executive blog posts are penned by a ghostwriter, who makes posts in the style of the credited author. Similar blogs for clubs and societies are called club blogs, group blogs, or by similar names; typical use is to inform members and other interested parties of club and member activities.

Aggregated blogs

Individuals or organization may aggregate selected feeds on specific topic, product or service and provide combined view for its readers. This allows readers to concentrate on reading instead of searching for quality on-topic content and managing subscriptions. Many such aggregation called planets from name of Planet (software) that perform such aggregation, hosting sites usually have planet. subdomain in domain name (like http://planet.gnome.org/).

By genre

Some blogs focus on a particular subject, such as political blogs, journalism blogs, health blogs, travel blogs (also known as travelogs), gardening blogs, house blogs, Book Blogs,[33][34] fashion blogs, beauty blogs, lifestyle blogs, party blogs, wedding blogs, photography blogs, project blogs, psychology blogs, sociology blogs, education blogs, niche blogs, classical music blogs, quizzing blogs, legal blogs (often referred to as a blawgs), or dreamlogs. How-to/Tutorial blogs are becoming increasing popular.[35] Two common types of genre blogs are art blogs and music blogs. A blog featuring discussions especially about home and family is not uncommonly called a mom blog and one made popular is by Erica Diamond who created Womenonthefence.com which is syndicated to over two million readers monthly.[36][37][38][39][40][41] While not a legitimate type of blog, one used for the sole purpose of spamming is known as a splog.

By media type

A blog comprising videos is called a vlog, one comprising links is called a linklog, a site containing a portfolio of sketches is called a sketchblog or one comprising photos is called a photoblog. Blogs with shorter posts and mixed media types are called tumblelogs. Blogs that are written on typewriters and then scanned are called typecast or typecast blogs. A rare type of blog hosted on the Gopher Protocol is known as a phlog.

By device

A blog can also be defined by which type of device is used to compose it. A blog written by a mobile device like a mobile phone or PDA could be called a moblog.[42] One early blog was Wearable Wireless Webcam, an online shared diary of a person's personal life combining text, video, and pictures transmitted live from a wearable computer and EyeTap device to a web site. This practice of semi-automated blogging with live video together with text was referred to as sousveillance. Such journals have been used as evidence in legal matters.[citation needed]

Reverse blog

A reverse blog is composed by its users rather than a single blogger. This system has the characteristics of a blog, and the writing of several authors. These can be written by several contributing authors on a topic, or opened up for anyone to write. There is typically some limit to the number of entries to keep it from operating like a web forum.[citation needed]


Community and cataloging

Blogosphere

The collective community of all blogs and blog authors, particularly notable and widely read blogs, is known as the blogosphere. Since all blogs are on the internet by definition, they may be seen as interconnected and socially networked, through blogrolls, comments, linkbacks (refbacks, trackbacks or pingbacks), and backlinks. Discussions "in the blogosphere" are occasionally used by the media as a gauge of public opinion on various issues. Because new, untapped communities of bloggers and their readers can emerge in the space of a few years, Internet marketers pay close attention to "trends in the blogosphere".[43]

Blog search engines

Several blog search engines have been used to search blog contents, such as BloglinesBlogScope, and Technorati. Technorati was one of the more popular blog search engines, but the website stopped indexing blogs and assigning authority scores in May 2014. The research community is working on going beyond simple keyword search, by inventing new ways to navigate through huge amounts of information present in the blogosphere, as demonstrated by projects like BlogScope, which was shut down in 2012.[citation needed]


Blogging communities and directories

Several online communities exist that connect people to blogs and bloggers to other bloggers. Some of these communities include Indiblogger, Blogadda, Blog Chatter, BlogCatalog and MyBlogLog.[44] Interest-specific blogging platforms are also available. For instance, Blogster has a sizable community of political bloggers among its members. Global Voices aggregates international bloggers, "with emphasis on voices that are not ordinarily heard in international mainstream media."[45]

Blogging and advertising

It is common for blogs to feature banner advertisements or promotional content, either to financially benefit the blogger, support website hosting costs, or to promote the blogger's favorite causes or products. The popularity of blogs has also given rise to "fake blogs" in which a company will create a fictional blog as a marketing tool to promote a product.[46]

As the popularity of blogging continues to rise, the commercialisation of blogging is rapidly increasing. Many corporations and companies collaborate with bloggers to increase advertising and engage online communities towards their products. In the book Fans, Bloggers, and Gamers, Henry Jenkins stated that "Bloggers take knowledge in their own hands, enabling successful navigation within and between these emerging knowledge cultures. One can see such behaviour as co-optation into commodity culture insofar as it sometimes collaborates with corporate interests, but one can also see it as increasing the diversity of media culture, providing opportunities for greater inclusiveness, and making more responsive to consumers."

Here are Free ways to make money online. 

 Punch up Google blogger. Create your blog. You are almost done.

Within a short time, like minutes, you will be set up to enter whatever copy you want to write in your blog. Forget all the fancy, bells, whistles, and technical things you have heard about blogging .

They mean nothing. Just write. Get that blog going which a child can do. You can be up and running in 20 minutes.  I cannot understand computers or follow simple directions.

 I can blog. 

You just have to know about something that others want to know about and write.  

  Hundreds of millions of people are out there and Google knows how to find them.

MANY NEED TO FIND YOUR BLOG. 

#Googles search engines delivers your content to people who are searching the web for what you are offering. Write interesting content and everything else will take care of itself. 

You may be a genius. But, who cares if no one reads what you write. Put your stuff out there and you will be found. 

OKAY. 

You are ready.

1-Start a blog.

Go to #Google #Blogger.

Write informative, interesting, useful, beneficial content and you will attract people to your blog. Google makes money from your work so they will deliver the viewers. It really is simple to blog. 

#Googles Adsense department does your bookkeeping and pays you each month by the amount of clicks your blog gets.You have to make $100.00 to get a check but its cumulative.

Look at the internet by searching Google until you find a subject or several subjects you want to blog about. Then, make a plan and go to work. Now.

2-CONSULTING

You are really be smart about many things. Teach. Come up with information or directions that other people can learn and use. Give them free samples so they want more from you.  Charge a competitive price for your services. Be fair. You will develop a loyal audience and get good reviews. Feedback is gold. 

Earn it. 

3- SET UP ONLINE COURSES

Teaching online is huge.  Your expertise can be on one or many subjects, You can advertise your  blog free all over. Facebook, Twitter, or any social media is a good starting point. 

Give your prospective students relevant information. Prepare references, answers to questions and samples your prospective students will want to evaluate. Check around the internet for competitive pricing. 

PEOPLE NEED YOU

Remember, just because you know how to fix a dishwasher or attach a shower head does not mean most other people can do. They will pay you to help them..

 SET UP A U-TUBE ACCOUNT

Come up with something creative that can be done on any subject. U-Tube is an internet video watched by millions of people putting on a U-Tube productions. If your U-Tube idea catches on people from all around the world will rush to see your production. You will get rich quickly or at least make lots of money. 

Most U-Tube ideas.  So what? But, if you succeed and put out a  video that hits the jackpot you will make a fortune. 

Any subject can work. Check it out.

5-  CONSIDER BOOK SALES-

Selling books on line is something I used to do on ebay. Than, Amazon took over the book market which shut out most of the small vendors. 

However, there is still money to be made if you want to dedicate an effort against the army of book sellers. 

Used books can easily be bought cheap or gotten free all over the place. Salvation Army, Goodwill, libraries, Craigs list, estate sales, auctions, churches and synagogues for starters are always offering thousands of used and new books. 

But, books must be transported and stored,  Pictures of each book must be taken and lots of reading and inspecting must be done before offering them online. 

Ultimately, most of the books listed do not sell.

Endless trips to ship sold books must be made to the post office. 

But, revenues are generated and you can find valuable, rare books which sell for lots of money. So, good luck and buy good magnifying glasses. Check #Amazon books.

These are a few free ideas.

It took me 2 hours to compose this.

Hopefully, I will get clicks.

Good Luck
