🚨 P2P Scam Alert: Protect Yourself from Peer-to-Peer Payment Fraud! 🚨
Scammers are getting smarter—and they’re targeting popular peer-to-peer (P2P) payment apps like Zelle, Cash App, Venmo, and PayPal.
🔍 How P2P Scams Work: Scammers trick you into sending them money under false pretenses—like posing as a buyer, pretending to be customer support, or even spoofing your bank. Once the payment is sent, it’s nearly impossible to recover.
🛑 Common Tactics:
Fake buyers offering to “overpay” for goods.
Phishing texts/emails mimicking real banks or payment apps.
Scammers impersonating support reps and asking for login or payment details.
Urgent messages claiming your account is compromised.
💡 Stay Safe Tips: ✅ Only send money to people you know and trust. ✅ Never share your PIN, password, or verification codes. ✅ Be skeptical of “urgent” payment requests. ✅ Contact your bank/app directly—never trust a number or link from a message. ✅ Enable extra security features like 2FA (two-factor authentication).
🚫 Once money is sent in a P2P app, there’s no guarantee you’ll get it back.
