adnan007 Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 I am receiving way too much LR spams these days claiming that I won some certain amount of prize money in LR. However, I have made a complaint to LR regarding such mails and they have ensured me that I am safe from such mails if I don't use links in such mails to visit LR official site...

pinay Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 I really wonder what email provider people use, since my Gmail has let only one (IIRC) spam past during last year period. And not many legit emails have went to spam folder either, so I recommend changing over to Gmail so you don't have to worry about spam anymore.

I thing LR should make a rule which will allow members to recover such lost funds or something such as mobile security to members so that their are almost no chance for a LR member to get scammed ever in the future.

I wonder if LR can create any such security measure which would allow everyone to stay away from such spams or to help newbies at least to avoid such frauds.

pinay Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 There's not much that any payment processor could do to stop those phishing emails - people are just generally so dumb, that they'd go for scam mail even if it said it as scam mail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont think its the fault of the LR users as I myself was a newbie when I came in this field and during that time I too didn't had knowledge about such phishing mails. If anyone would have send me one such mail during that time, I might have myself lost all my funds. Its all about spreading the knowledge amongst the newbies regarding such phishing mails.

monyitomon Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 Well, i just opened my account and i found out another security feature. I forgot what it is but it has something to do with our device if we want LR to recognize it when every time we log in, our account. I skipped it that even its my own computer, i always want to be secured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do register on several earning sites providing them with our LR details as well as our email account and that is were they get our email accounts from as per my views. I dont think they do have any other means of getting our email account details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

riddick09 Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 That's why I decided not to have used my LR email address in any of the programs or forums. So I will not have any problems or any phishing emails since they don't know it. Just we need to keep is to have our email address not visible or not used in those programs so they will not be seen or used to have these spams and scams.

monyitomon Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 I also received lots of spams everyday but i do ignore that because i know how can i protect myself from those Phishing mails. Though, yeah! It is better if you will not used your primary email address to register in any program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riddick09 Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Well, it is the only way to not have it and also be smarter that sometimes they are in the form of phishing emails already so we need to familiarize how they looks like and what an authentic mail from LR has.

monyitomon Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Yeah! As what i always see when i open LR site. LR keeps telling us that they will never ask for our log in, information. So, this Phishing mails usually asking for our important information and usually offering something like "You won $$$." to temp the readers.

So, this Phishing mails usually asking for our important information and usually offering something like "You won $$$." to temp the readers. from what i see and heard from many people, sometimes they tempted to click that email, since they thought that they really earn money from that email, but if they have enough knowledge i am sure that they will not believe that things too much.

monyitomon Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 Yes, that's very tempting, there are times that i got tempted but when i see the content that asking for your information those confidential info.. that's really fishy. Let's keep in our mind we are not joining in any kind of instant money draws something like that. Also as we know earning money is never easy.

christmas_ Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Yeah! As what i always see when i open LR site. LR keeps telling us that they will never ask for our log in, information. So, this Phishing mails usually asking for our important information and usually offering something like "You won $$$." to temp the readers. I think only greedy people will fall into such scams. Some things are really too good to be true, and regrets always come too late when something wrong happens to your account. We must be careful and also street smart.

monyitomon Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Yes, just be smart. So, far i have never been a victim of hacking, like for example when i log in, my LR account too often at the same day like when i'm playing Gambling. I don't feel safe anymore, so what i usually do is to request for a new password, pin, and master key. Then write it down into a paper then i'll completely delete into my email.

riddick09 Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 I will carefully handle my LR account as like it will be important as other payment processor I have. So far, It is the highest percentage the funds i have so really extra careful with it and most of the security were enabled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monyitomon Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Checking our email from time to time would also help us because if notification enabled then LR will notify you when someone's trying to access your account like for example 3x incorrect pin code will automatically blocked your LR account.

riddick09 Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 Yes, we will have email regarding the problem with the account as well as the transactions notifications. This is usually important to me because it really saves time to post those transactions in different sites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What if your account has been blocked because of this 3x incorrect pin code. But you are not the one who made access to your account, so is there any possibility that you can still access your account? How about the money you have there?
