Be skeptical of all unsolicited contact and remember if it sounds too good to be true, it generally is.<\/li>\n<li>Never, ever, reply to unsolicited emails (spam) and be careful when clicking links in emails to avoid potential threats such as phishing.<\/li>\n<li>If you have already sent money, do not send any more. If you have sent bank details, notify your bank and close your account.<\/li>\n<li>If you think you have been the victim of fraudulent activity, you should report the matter to your local Garda station immediately.<\/li>\n<li>Remember, most genuine companies will not cold-call you and request payment or sensitive information. If you are unsure you should hang up and verify the approach with the company directly using their published contact details.<\/li>\n<li>Never send any money or financial information in order to receive a prize or to accept an offer of employment<\/li>\n<li>When shopping online do not disclose personal information which is not necessary to complete a transaction. Certain personal details, combined with your credit card number could potentially lead to identity theft.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"news_list_title\">\n<section><\/section>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<section><\/section>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"iawp_total_views":28},"rights-category":[108],"class_list":["post-4414","rights","type-rights","status-publish","hentry","rights-category-other"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t<!-- All in One SEO 5.0.2 - aioseo.com -->\n\t<meta name=\"description\" content=\"How can I spot a fraud?
