Website address
All of us once buy something on the Internet or do financial transactions or enter passport data and other important information.
Here we must understand the difference. Let's say your registration on social networks is free, as well as in many other services. So, no one guarantees you anything and all information entered there is no longer confidential.
Another thing is online stores, banks, government websites like State services. They protect customer data.
Therefore, we more gullibly enter our data on such sites.
And because scammers create similar websites, and you are asked to enter login, password, data from a plastic card ...
Always look at the address of the site. It should look like this:
http://yoomoney.ru/direct-payment.xml?scid=767&payment-item-id=23423423&favorite-id=234234&FormComment=sdsd&from=imainfav&quickpay-form=dd
We will disassemble:
- Usually the site address begins with HTTP:// and on browsers it is usually hidden to save space. But for important operations, the protected protocol is http://.
If you are offered to enter valuable information with the usual protocol HTTP://, then it can be intercepted and accessible to 3 persons. So we do not enter anything. This is a scam site.
- We look at the address of the site itself, we have it yoomoney.ru/, everything that is written after the oblique line is of little interest to us, there is usually a lot of information, it is understandable and necessary for the server. >
And the fact that we are interested in the slash. Every time before entering passwords, logging in and registering, have a habit of looking at the website address.
In this case, this is the Yandex site and the subdomain Money (which is not so important). It is important that this is Yandex, not Andex or something else.
If the address is ex. YANDEX.2GT6R.RU, that is, a random set of letters and numbers is a one-time address, and the site itself is a fake.
Another reception, say the address yoomoney.ru.tralala.com/ - this site is located on the domain tralala.com, and everything else, this is the domain names of the 2nd, 3rd and 4th level. He has nothing to do with Yandex.
Any user can buy a domain and himself free can make subdomains as he pleases.
Look at the address that faces the oblique line.
- In order to be guaranteed to go where you want, bookmark on important sites for you and go there through them. Do not click links in the email.
If there is a suspicion or say you received a letter with important information, you go to the official site through your bookmark, and in your account there is no information on this account or you simply do not know where to find it.
Contact Support. In all financial and official sites there is a support service. More often via email (it is clear that the email is sent through the site, and do not respond to the received enemy).
Often, to the site there is a toll-free number to which you can call.
