@consultant.com Scam Email – How Does It Work?
It claims you’ve won so called donation or a prize in an online competition, and you should reply the mail. Sometimes the scammers would claim to be offering you a job offer, but it is all a scam. When you reply the email, the scammer will try to convince you to visit a website to pay processing fee. This is where the scam comes in.
When you visit the website, you’d be asked for your personal and credit card information. However, when you submit your credit card details, you’ll receive unauthorized debit alerts. This is because the scammers have gotten access to your passwords, and credit card details.
That is their sole aim. To steal from innocent people. This kind of scam is called ‘Phishing Scam‘, and it’s one of the top scam of 2022.

My friend got catfished bij someone who convinced her je is in the navy, on a mission in Jemen. He got her to trust him and to fall in love. They agreed he would leave his mission early and come to her in Belgium. They sent mails from this address, supposedly coming from the UN asking her to confirm she’s his fiancé and she paid a lot of money to get his early release… we have found his photo’s online, belonging to someone else, but she still doesn’t believe us. Can you please check this adress so I can show her this is a scam.
