Scammers can use create fake websites by creating fake log ins for websites that are commonly used today. Like for example a netflix login page. When you log into the website you put in the information that you normally would use and then the scammer can steal your data from the information you entered. Another common fake website is websites with deals that are too good to be true. Anything online shop that has deals on normally expensive items for dirt cheap, is likely a scam. Another way scammers can steal information is by using fake support websites. Hackers create a fake support website by making you think you are talking to an actual support agent. Common sings that you may be looking at a fake website are if the domain name is spelled wrong like for example BankOffAmerica.com. Looking at the padlock symbol at the top of the website can help too. Though that shouldn’t be the only thing you look for as that can be wrong too. Looking for any poor spilling errors or just weird website structure also is a good way for you to figure out if your website is fake. Also checking if the domain age or when the website was really made is also a good way to tell if the website if fake. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
