That\u2019s why we need to know the latest tricks of cybercriminals. Let\u2019s check some of their common schemes for this year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Romantiek met crypto<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nThis one isn\u2019t getting old yet. We also mentioned it afgelopen jaar<\/a>, and it\u2019s still here, with some slight changes. You can find some of these scammers on dating apps, Facebook, Instagram, and probably other social media as well. They use stock images or steal someone\u2019s else photo for their profiles, making them attractive for the victims. Then, they start to court their targets, pretending to share common interests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"Crypto-scam-romantiek-schema's\"](\"https:\/\/alfacash.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/heart-3698156_1920-1024x681.jpg\")
<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nThat phase can go on for even months to earn the victim\u2019s vertrouwen en genegenheid<\/a>. Zodra dit doel is bereikt, zal de oplichter geld vragen aan de andere partij<\/strong>, meestal in cryptocurrencies. Ze kunnen doen alsof ze ziek zijn, om de een of andere reden niet bij hun geld kunnen of op een of andere manier hulp nodig hebben. Dus, omdat ze iemand willen helpen waar ze om geven, maken de slachtoffers hun geld over en is de zwendel compleet.<\/p>\n\n\n\nAndere trucs zijn onder meer valse cheques en overboekingen en zich voordoen als een deskundige belegger om een frauduleuze handelsapp aan te bevelen. Volgens<\/a> the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC), the romance scammers stole over $139 million in crypto with these schemes only in 2021. The average losses amounted to $9,770 per victim. Never trust in someone you don\u2019t know personally!<\/p>\n\n\n\nDe geldautomaten crypto-zwendel<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nThis crypto scam is so elaborate that it\u2019s hard to believe it exists \u2014but it does. It\u2019s done almost completely offline, so, you\u2019ll also need to pay attention to suspicious phone calls and individuals. The scheme starts when someone calls you, pretending to be from the government, law enforcement, some utility company, a lottery brand, or a romantic interest. Sometimes, they can even pretend to be from your employer’s company<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"Crypto-scam-telefoongesprek\"](\"https:\/\/alfacash.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/people-2590982_1920-1024x682.jpg\")
<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nDe oplichter zal je een verhaal vertellen over een aantal openstaande vergoedingen of belastingen, een ander wettelijke verplichtingen<\/a>, hoe je een prijs hebt gewonnen en je moet ze eerst wat geld sturen, of hoe het bedrijf je om de een of andere reden nodig heeft om een bepaald bedrag over te maken. Als je het verhaal gelooft, zal de oplichter doorgaan en je naar de dichtstbijzijnde winkel leiden met een cryptocurrency-geldautomaat<\/strong>. Once there, they\u2019ll make you buy crypto from this ATM \u2014all this time aan de telefoon<\/a> met jou.<\/p>\n\n\n\nFinally, they\u2019ll send you a QR code of their own portemonnees<\/a> en geef aan dat je ze de zojuist gekochte crypto moet sturen. Wanneer u dit doet, is de zwendel voltooid en bent u uw geld kwijt. als de FTC uitgelegd<\/a> about this: \u201cHere\u2019s the main thing to know: nobody from the government, law enforcement, utility company, or prize promoter will ever tell you to pay them with cryptocurrency. If someone does, it\u2019s a scam, every time.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\nTrueNorthBit en meer<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nFrauduleuze handelsplatforms zijn een zeer veelvoorkomend type crypto-zwendel<\/a>. Ze veranderen van tijd tot tijd van domein en naam, maar het belangrijkste uitgangspunt blijft. De oplichters kunnen hun slachtoffers bereiken via sociale media of betaalde advertenties en proberen hen vervolgens telefonisch te overtuigen. Deze websites en apps bieden een hoog rendement met minimale investeringen <\/strong>and claim that they\u2019re using the money to make cryptocurrency trading.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"crypto-zwendel-cryptocurrency-handel\"](\"https:\/\/alfacash.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/trading-6531134_1920-1024x683.jpg\")
<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nThe victims can see the promised high returns on the website, but, in the end, there\u2019s no way to withdraw the money. That happened to Isabelle L\u00e9vesque, a woman from Calgary (Canada) wie heeft besloten?<\/a> to invest on a platform dubbed TrueNorthBit. \u201cMultiply your returns and create wealth\u201d, is the motto of the mentioned brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\nAfter a minimum investment of $250, they promise to create a portfolio of stocks and cryptocurrencies to offer high returns in a short time. But, as L\u00e9vesque told to local media, there\u2019s no way to recover the money if you decide to do so<\/strong>. Een man uit British Columbia (Canada) geleden<\/a> the same fate after investing his retirement savings on a very similar platform, this time dubbed CityInvest GP. The name isn\u2019t important, though: always do your own research (DYOR<\/a>) voordat u geld aan derden toevertrouwt.<\/p>\n\n\n\nSocial media weggevertjes<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nNet als de FTC verklaarde<\/a> recently: \u201csocial media is a gold mine for scammers\u201d. And not only for the \u201cromantic\u201d ones. The fake crypto giveaways are now an old trick, but they keep working on so many people. Especially because this crypto scam is evolving with new tactics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"Nep-crypto-weggeefacties-zwendel\"](\"https:\/\/alfacash.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/arrow-964733_1280-1024x576.jpg\")
<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nDe klassieke versie bevat een oplichter die zich voordoet als een beroemde persoonlijkheid op Twitter of Facebook<\/strong>. Then, they\u2019d send a public message announcing a crypto weggeefactie<\/a>, alleen voor die mensen die ze eerst een minder bedrag naar hun portemonnee sturen. Nu is de regeling verlengd onenigheid<\/a> en Instagram, waar de oplichters zelfs enkele directe berichten naar hun slachtoffers kunnen sturen om hen te overtuigen.<\/p>\n\n\n\nYouTube Live is een ander hulpmiddel dat in 2022 door deze oplichters werd gebruikt. Zoals uitgelegd door het cyberbeveiligingsbedrijf Houdbaar<\/a>, bereiden de oplichters live video's voor op YouTube, waarin opmerkelijke mensen praten over crypto's, om hun nep-weggeefacties te presenteren. Daarnaast, nep NFT-weggeefacties<\/a> komen ook veel voor. De oplichters kunnen beloven gloednieuwe NFT's te maken of zelfs een game of DeFi-platform te maken dat nooit zal komen.<\/p>\n\n\n\nNep banen<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nYes, you can be a victim even if you\u2019re looking for a new job. The method goes as follows: the victim finds a job offer in a supposed cryptocurrency company, probably as \u201cPortfolio Manager\u201d or similar. Job boards like Inderdaad<\/a> (beschikbaar in 63 landen) kunnen dit soort frauduleuze aanbiedingen bevatten. Dan, na een aantal schijnbaar legitieme interviews, wordt het slachtoffer aangenomen en wordt een hoog salaris beloofd.<\/p>\n\n\n\nDe taak<\/a> vervullen is eenvoudig voor hen: enkele overschrijvingen ontvangen op hun eigen bankrekeningen, use the money to buy Bitcoin and other cryptos on behalf of the clients, and send those funds back to the company wallet<\/strong>. Het probleem stijgt wanneer de bank het slachtoffer belt om hen te informeren dat elk van die stortingen een fraude was, en nu moeten ze het geld terugbetalen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/alfacash.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/lego-2539844_1920-1024x683.jpg\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nAt this point, the victim tries to contact their employer, but to no avail. And they\u2019re left with debts of thousands of dollars: the crypto scam is complete. \u201cCryptocurity LLC\u201d is a fraudulent company doing this scheme, but it might not be alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
De laatste les? Als er iets met uw geldrekeningen te maken heeft, moet u al uw aandacht besteden.<\/strong> Onderzoek is belangrijk wanneer uw geld en\/of uw naam op het spel staan, ook al is dat blijkbaar niet mogelijk de investering<\/a> world. Always look for previous reviews and opinions, and be sure to read the terms and conditions for every platform or deal you\u2019re considering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nThat phase can go on for even months to earn the victim\u2019s vertrouwen en genegenheid<\/a>. Zodra dit doel is bereikt, zal de oplichter geld vragen aan de andere partij<\/strong>, meestal in cryptocurrencies. Ze kunnen doen alsof ze ziek zijn, om de een of andere reden niet bij hun geld kunnen of op een of andere manier hulp nodig hebben. Dus, omdat ze iemand willen helpen waar ze om geven, maken de slachtoffers hun geld over en is de zwendel compleet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Andere trucs zijn onder meer valse cheques en overboekingen en zich voordoen als een deskundige belegger om een frauduleuze handelsapp aan te bevelen. Volgens<\/a> the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC), the romance scammers stole over $139 million in crypto with these schemes only in 2021. The average losses amounted to $9,770 per victim. Never trust in someone you don\u2019t know personally!<\/p>\n\n\n\n This crypto scam is so elaborate that it\u2019s hard to believe it exists \u2014but it does. It\u2019s done almost completely offline, so, you\u2019ll also need to pay attention to suspicious phone calls and individuals. The scheme starts when someone calls you, pretending to be from the government, law enforcement, some utility company, a lottery brand, or a romantic interest. Sometimes, they can even pretend to be from your employer’s company<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n De oplichter zal je een verhaal vertellen over een aantal openstaande vergoedingen of belastingen, een ander wettelijke verplichtingen<\/a>, hoe je een prijs hebt gewonnen en je moet ze eerst wat geld sturen, of hoe het bedrijf je om de een of andere reden nodig heeft om een bepaald bedrag over te maken. Als je het verhaal gelooft, zal de oplichter doorgaan en je naar de dichtstbijzijnde winkel leiden met een cryptocurrency-geldautomaat<\/strong>. Once there, they\u2019ll make you buy crypto from this ATM \u2014all this time aan de telefoon<\/a> met jou.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Finally, they\u2019ll send you a QR code of their own portemonnees<\/a> en geef aan dat je ze de zojuist gekochte crypto moet sturen. Wanneer u dit doet, is de zwendel voltooid en bent u uw geld kwijt. als de FTC uitgelegd<\/a> about this: \u201cHere\u2019s the main thing to know: nobody from the government, law enforcement, utility company, or prize promoter will ever tell you to pay them with cryptocurrency. If someone does, it\u2019s a scam, every time.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Frauduleuze handelsplatforms zijn een zeer veelvoorkomend type crypto-zwendel<\/a>. Ze veranderen van tijd tot tijd van domein en naam, maar het belangrijkste uitgangspunt blijft. De oplichters kunnen hun slachtoffers bereiken via sociale media of betaalde advertenties en proberen hen vervolgens telefonisch te overtuigen. Deze websites en apps bieden een hoog rendement met minimale investeringen <\/strong>and claim that they\u2019re using the money to make cryptocurrency trading.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The victims can see the promised high returns on the website, but, in the end, there\u2019s no way to withdraw the money. That happened to Isabelle L\u00e9vesque, a woman from Calgary (Canada) wie heeft besloten?<\/a> to invest on a platform dubbed TrueNorthBit. \u201cMultiply your returns and create wealth\u201d, is the motto of the mentioned brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n After a minimum investment of $250, they promise to create a portfolio of stocks and cryptocurrencies to offer high returns in a short time. But, as L\u00e9vesque told to local media, there\u2019s no way to recover the money if you decide to do so<\/strong>. Een man uit British Columbia (Canada) geleden<\/a> the same fate after investing his retirement savings on a very similar platform, this time dubbed CityInvest GP. The name isn\u2019t important, though: always do your own research (DYOR<\/a>) voordat u geld aan derden toevertrouwt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Net als de FTC verklaarde<\/a> recently: \u201csocial media is a gold mine for scammers\u201d. And not only for the \u201cromantic\u201d ones. The fake crypto giveaways are now an old trick, but they keep working on so many people. Especially because this crypto scam is evolving with new tactics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n De klassieke versie bevat een oplichter die zich voordoet als een beroemde persoonlijkheid op Twitter of Facebook<\/strong>. Then, they\u2019d send a public message announcing a crypto weggeefactie<\/a>, alleen voor die mensen die ze eerst een minder bedrag naar hun portemonnee sturen. Nu is de regeling verlengd onenigheid<\/a> en Instagram, waar de oplichters zelfs enkele directe berichten naar hun slachtoffers kunnen sturen om hen te overtuigen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n YouTube Live is een ander hulpmiddel dat in 2022 door deze oplichters werd gebruikt. Zoals uitgelegd door het cyberbeveiligingsbedrijf Houdbaar<\/a>, bereiden de oplichters live video's voor op YouTube, waarin opmerkelijke mensen praten over crypto's, om hun nep-weggeefacties te presenteren. Daarnaast, nep NFT-weggeefacties<\/a> komen ook veel voor. De oplichters kunnen beloven gloednieuwe NFT's te maken of zelfs een game of DeFi-platform te maken dat nooit zal komen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Yes, you can be a victim even if you\u2019re looking for a new job. The method goes as follows: the victim finds a job offer in a supposed cryptocurrency company, probably as \u201cPortfolio Manager\u201d or similar. Job boards like Inderdaad<\/a> (beschikbaar in 63 landen) kunnen dit soort frauduleuze aanbiedingen bevatten. Dan, na een aantal schijnbaar legitieme interviews, wordt het slachtoffer aangenomen en wordt een hoog salaris beloofd.<\/p>\n\n\n\n De taak<\/a> vervullen is eenvoudig voor hen: enkele overschrijvingen ontvangen op hun eigen bankrekeningen, use the money to buy Bitcoin and other cryptos on behalf of the clients, and send those funds back to the company wallet<\/strong>. Het probleem stijgt wanneer de bank het slachtoffer belt om hen te informeren dat elk van die stortingen een fraude was, en nu moeten ze het geld terugbetalen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n At this point, the victim tries to contact their employer, but to no avail. And they\u2019re left with debts of thousands of dollars: the crypto scam is complete. \u201cCryptocurity LLC\u201d is a fraudulent company doing this scheme, but it might not be alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n De laatste les? Als er iets met uw geldrekeningen te maken heeft, moet u al uw aandacht besteden.<\/strong> Onderzoek is belangrijk wanneer uw geld en\/of uw naam op het spel staan, ook al is dat blijkbaar niet mogelijk de investering<\/a> world. Always look for previous reviews and opinions, and be sure to read the terms and conditions for every platform or deal you\u2019re considering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Cybercriminelen bereiden allerlei soorten crypto-zwendel voor om hun slachtoffers te misleiden. Laten we eens kijken naar enkele van hun gemeenschappelijke schema's voor dit jaar. <\/p>","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":8859,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_sitemap_exclude":false,"_sitemap_priority":"","_sitemap_frequency":"","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[51],"tags":[445,61,135,101,277,45],"class_list":{"0":"post-8848","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-crypto-culture","8":"tag-445","9":"tag-cryptocurrencies","10":"tag-cybersecurity","11":"tag-investment","12":"tag-nfts","13":"tag-scams"},"featured_image_src":"https:\/\/alfacash.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/03.jpg","author_info":{"display_name":"Isabel P\u00e9rez","author_link":"https:\/\/alfacash.blog\/nl\/author\/isabel\/"},"yoast_head":"\nDe geldautomaten crypto-zwendel<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
