your bank account, credit card account, and others.
TRAVEL SCAMS
This type of scam is usually most active during summer and holiday
season. You will receive an email with the offer to get low fares to
some destinations, but its not.

This cam asks possible credit card user or loaner to pay the annual
fee in advance so that they are guaranteed to get a loan or a credit
card with a massive credit limit.
NIGERIAN SCAM
This email scam informs you that you won a large amount of money
in a lottery or contest. To claim your prize, you should pay the
processing fee for a certain amount.
HOW TO AVOID DIFFERENT
INTERNET SCAMS
• Do not believe the promise of large sums of money for your
cooperation.
• Call the credit card company or the bank to confirm if they are
really asking advanced payment of annual fees.
• Be skeptical.
• Be doubtful if a friend or someone you know really send an
email message asking for money.
• Guard you account information carefully.
