To avoid scammers or getting scammed, all ways try to keep the below riiles inn check:-
*Keep your personal information to yourself. In the past five years, millions of Americans have been victims of identity theft, including many students.

Because of growing poverty, I feel scam is becoming more widespread. I don't say that's justification enough for people to cheat other people off. But unfortunately, this is the truth of the world today in which people strive to rapidly make money out of each other. A while ago, I had an experience in which one called me and told me some of my info. He hoped that on my debit card, I would offer some details.
 
In the event that on acquiring on the web locales, it is not difficult to stay away from and simple to recognize gourd it is phony and trick website, however with regards to such things as administrative matters, office proffession occupations, for me it is hard to figure out which trick and valid.

In order to avoid scammers do not transact with people you barely know online. I have experience this before and it was a bitter one. If you must deal with a stranger online, do your background research about that person before sending money or the job involved.
 
Alot of people do say that it is the greedy people that do get scammed. I agree to some extent, when they start telling you that you can make a profit of over hundred percentage,within few hours,then you need not to be told that it is not really legit and genuine. So ,you need to be careful when investing.
For me when I see a site that is very high paying for an easy job I know it is a SCAM , I Wonder why people still believe that they Can get something without work online , but the harsh SCAM that the one Can experience is from the site that was legit then stopped to pay .
 
The best way to avoid online scammers is to stay away. But since we are in a situation where we all look for a way to produce profits, I recommend that you look for more information about the site, its reviews and usage policies. Ask everything you want to know before taking the job.
 
I think it is impossible to stay away from them actually cause some sites you never expect that will be turn to a SCAM then they turned , but it is good to share our experiences here on forums so we can warn each other of new SCAM sites .
 
Well I always advise my people, my friends and well wishers to be cocious like the Snake, when doing any business online. Because lots and lots of atrocities are being committed on daily basis through the internet, you will see packs of criminals, froudstares online looking for whom to scam so you need to be careful
 
One of the easiest ways to stay away from scammers is by not becoming greedy. A lot of people get scammed because they are very greedy. If you control your greed, you are less likely to be scammed
 
The problem of falling for scams most time has to do with personal greedy, greedy is the first thing we must learn to deal with. We must eradicate greedy from our motives this will make it difficult for us to fall for scams. Then we also try to put on proper security system.
 
It's so sad to hear what happened to you,the person just used you to earn money for him/her self. Anything other than working for a legit and proven platforms, am not game.

To stay away from scammers sometimes is not quite possible or inevitable with an online participant no matter how knowledgeable you are on the various websites you operate you most one day be scammed in one way or the other.
 
And this is why there are always milestone or escrow model of payment on various websites. If you deal with clients out of these models of payments, you might always raise your risk of getting scammed by people. 1100 pages? it is a huge project and honestly speaking, I am really feeling bad for you, dear. Please be careful next time and do not deal with people outside of freelancing websites.
