How to Avoid Losing Money or Information to Con Men
Many companies have undergone vetting and received permission to sell goods and services in different areas. Such companies want their clients to have the best experience and this is the reason why they offer top-notch services and sell products from manufacturers that manufacture high-quality products.Unfortunately, some people venture into the business industry to steal money from unsuspecting clients. Some of the strategies they use when approaching clients is sending them emails, sending them messages on social media pages or calling then and pretending that they are legitimate business operators.
When they contact people, con men use strategies that make clients believe that they are communicating with a trustworthy person representing a reputable company. Some clients don’t bother doing research to find out whether the business people who approach them are trustworthy because they believe that they are dealing with a genuine company representative. The unsuspecting clients usually follow all the instructions given to them by the con men, which usually includes a request to send money or share personal information.Unfortunately, they discover that they made a mistake when it’s too late.
People react differently when they fall victims to com mens’ tricks, including feeling embarrassed. People who feel embarrassed after being conned do not like sharing this information with people.However, others use their experience to educate people and help them know how to identify com men and the strategies to use to avoid them.
The CEO of Charleston Capital Holdings, Mike Asimos is one of the people who have been very passionate about teaching the art of managing con artists.He recently shared the experience he had with con artists to help young people know how con men operate and how to avoid them.Michael Asimos started by saying that he does not have any regrets because he never did what the con men wanted.He managed to discover that the people who contacted him were not legitimate representatives of the companies they claimed to work for.
Different con artists approached Micael W Asimos at different times and he learnt something each time.One of the things that he learnt is that some people seem trustworthy but they hide their character to convince people to trust them.Therefore, Michael W Asimos asked people to take their time to learn whether someone is trustworthy before sharing information with them or sending them money for goods and services.
He also advices people not to trust people if they feel that the person might not offer then the services or goods they promise. Because everyone can be conned by con men, Mike wants to share this information with as many people as possible so that they can know how to avoid becoming victims.
