So what does it take to beat a scammer at their own game?  Many people quiver with excitement when they hear about an opportunity to stab back at people whose only purpose is to get rich off of other man kind’s misery.

Well, let me tell you, I started writing this article on how to catch a scammer, and about part way through I felt dirty.  So I stopped, and instead thought you would find more interesting in learning about ways you deal with a situation when you think you are being scammed.  Here are a few tips:

1. If possible use a public computer terminal if the matter is serious (so they cannot track your IP address)
2. Use a public email address like a hotmail or yahoo account for all correspondence.
3. Never give away personal information.  Particularly information related to anything financial, your identity, or your location of where you live.
4. Always ask for confirmation of your emails when they are sent off.  Doing this covers your tracks and can be used later down the road against them.

These are a few of many tips that can server you well if you are dealing with someone you believe may be scamming you.  If you have any questions or comments, please post the below for everyone to see.
