People who operate in the business industry have experienced different problems in the last few years. One of the challenges business people have faced is that there have been individuals who do not want to earn money legally and so they earn a living through deceit, manipulation or they offer false promises. The people who use these strategies to get money usually approach people pretending to be trustworthy business operators. Then, they use lies or tricks to convince people to share personal information or send money expecting that the conmen will offer them goods or services.
Con men have different ways of getting information or money from the people they approach. Calling people and pretending to be representatives of reputable organizations is one of the strategies con men use.This makes people to believe that they are talking to a trustworthy person and they do everything as directed by the con artists. The other strategy con men use is sending emails requesting people to share personal or financial information.They even request people to deposit a certain amount of money to a specific bank account.
Some people know the different ways people lose money or personal information to con artists and they share this information so that individuals can know how to manage con artists.One of the people who have been very passionate about helping people avoid losing money and information to conmen is Charleston Capital Holdings CEO, Mike Asimos. Recently, he shared the experienced he has had with different con men and gave young people tips of how to manage con men.Michael con man explained how he nearly lost money to conmen who approached him pretending to be genuine business people. Mike continues explaining how he managed to know that the con men were not trustworthy and how he managed to stop them before stealing his money.
Most memories of the times Mike almost fell victim to con artists are vivid in his mind. Many con artists realized that Mike was naive and he trusted people easily and this is the reason why they approached him.Mike notes that each experience he had taught him something.For instance, he learnt not to trust everyone because some people seem trustworthy but they are not.This is the reason why Mike advises people to do due diligence before working individuals that they meet for the first time.
Mike uses the experiences he had with corn artists to help people identify red flags and act fast to avoid being victims. He advises people to refuse sharing personal information or cancel deals when they feel that someone wants to con them. Mike also insists on the importance of asking many questions when dealing with strangers so that they can determine whether they are trustworthy.
