1 TOP 10 SCAMS of 2017 Canada s most recognized scams of 2017 Better Business Bureau serving Vancouver Island, the Gulf Islands, Powell River and Haida Gwaii *Trade-mark of the Council of Better Business Bureaus used under license.
2 It s not a pretty picture! Canadians lost more money to scammers in 2017 than they did in the previous three years over 95 million dollars to be exact. That s just the tip of the iceberg as it is estimated that only 5% of victims actually came forward to report the crime. The focus for 2017 is online purchase scams. Over 90% of consumers now shop in the online world at any given time and that means the internet is a haven for cybercriminals.
3 Online Purchase Scams More than $13 million lost The most reported type of scam to BBB Scam Tracker. From fake websites to counterfeit goods to free trial traps and more. Online purchase scams are everywhere. Shop on reputable websites Read all terms and conditions Be wary of offers that are too good to be true
4 Wire Fraud/Spearphishing More than $20 million lost Canadian businesses lose millions every year to those posing as CEO s who redirect company money through wire and transfers. Build in payment redundancy systems Make sure addresses are correct Educate your employees about these scams
5 Online Dating Scams More than $19 million lost Canadians lost a lot more than their hearts to catphishers in Online dating scams continue unabated to hurt those looking for love. Never send money to someone you have never met Always meet in person Don t give out personal information
6 Employment Scams More than $5 million lost Last year s number one scam slides down the list but still targets Canadians through reputable employment websites. If you didn t apply you didn t get hired A legitimate company would never ask you to wire money as a test Look for poor grammar, lack of job details and overthe-top pay scale
7 Crypto Currency Scams More than $17 million lost Cryptocurrencies are speculative, high-risk investments that are mostly unregulated. As they have captured the attention of investors, so too have fraudsters taken notice. There is an elevated risk of fraud and manipulation Some offerings may not comply with securities laws
8 Income Tax Scam More than $5 million lost For years Canadians from coast to coast have been targeted in the CRA tax scam. While we are getting better at recognizing it, the threatening phone calls keep on coming. The CRA does not make threatening phone calls The CRA will not solicit personal information over the phone or by Canadian government agencies do not accept payment in bitcoin
9 Miracle Weight-loss Scams Losses unknown Losing weight is a goal for many Canadians. Be careful, many fat-burning products may only lighten your wallet. If it looks too good to be true it probably is Don t trust unsubstantiated claims There is no magic pill for weight loss
10 Advance Fee Loans More than $15 million lost The shady lender guarantees you will get a loan. They turn around and ask for an upfront payment as security. If you are approved for a loan and they request money as security walk away Research reputable lenders A guarantee of a loan before any credit check is highly suspect
11 Shady Contractors More than $3 million lost Yes this is still a problem. Contractors without a conscience who take your deposit and disappear. Be wary of unsolicited offers of work Get several estimates for a job Go to bbb.org to research trustworthy companies
12 Fake Invoices Losses unknown Millions of Canadians have online accounts to companies like Amazon, UPS, Canada Post and itunes. Your inbox is often stuffed with realistic looking invoices from many different organizations. Contact the organization directly if you have any concerns Compare details of the invoice to your original order Don t click on any links or input personal information
