The Endless War Against Scam Sites
In the ‘Imitation Game-Movie,’ Alan Turing turn World War II into a drastic way that it is estimated that he saved millions of lives and 3-4 years of war. What did he do?
Enigma-the Unresolved Puzzle
Germany Nazi Army had a communication system known as ‘Enigma’ which was very secure and impossible to break. Daily, thousands of messages were passed using it. The Allied forces even having access to all communication are not able to break the code of ‘Enigma’.
The MI6 made a secret team of some mathematicians to break the code. The problem with the code was it changed after every 24 hours and there are a million ways available to code the message via Enigma.
Every day mathematicians work hard 24 hours to break the code and when the clock hits ‘12’ at midnight the code gets changed and their hard work goes into vain. It is like failing every day.
One Right Thought
Alan Turing thought to create a machine that will break the code of Enigma. He thought Enigma is a machine and we are trying to defeat it with human hands, he said we need a machine to break the code of the machine.
He made a machine that in the end was able to break the code of the Enigma and helped immensely the British forces as they were aware of where the Nazi Germany forces are going to attack in advance. They use the information very subtly that Nazi Germany was not able to detect that there is a breach in their communication.
War Against Scam
Every day we saw many scam sites during our research. It makes us feel sad that lots of people earn money by taking advantage of people innocence and ignorance. Today scammers are able to scam globally, what kind of century we have entered. The number of scam sites increasing daily.
Scammers have created their own market of billions of dollars. Each year it is increasing. Our work is not only to make people safe but to make them aware that scammers are there who willing to scam you. But it doesn’t matter how hard we work; our effort is not enough to fight against all the scam sites.
Due to a lack of resources and the enormous number of scam sites we are not able to write about every site. We have the same feeling of ‘failing every day.
There are many algorithms present on the net which can tell you, a site is a scam or not in a few seconds, the problem is the scammers are able to fool the algorithm. They create a scam site that fulfils all the criteria of a genuine site in algorithms.
To know the site is a scam or not Human Intelligence is needed. In that aspect, everyone who is writing reviews on the scam sites on the internet is failing every day. We have to choose the sites about which we should write and which ones we should let go of.
The problem with us is that we feel very sad if any one person will get scammed from those sites on which we are not writing. Constantly thinking about this problem, we couldn’t find the solution as we are human too and we have our own limitations. We can not write about each and every scam site. Therefore, what could be done?
The Solution
The number of scammers is enormous and they are creating scam sites on a daily basis. We want every visitor who is coming to this site and reading this article to contribute from their side and write in the comment box about the scam sites they had an encounter.
Let’s make it a revolution to not just only be aware people of the scam site but talking about the scam site. Write in the comment box about those sites about which we are not able to write but you know.
Share this article as much as you can, we know the number of genuine online users are much more than scammers. If everyone just writes about one site, it is enough to mark a dent in the work of scammers.
One point we must understand clearly scammers are able to scam us only because we allowed them. Our ignorance and lack of awareness make them powerful. Everyone should contribute here and write about one site which is a scam or suspicious.
Talk about scam sites and your incidents there is no shame in it. Till today 90% of scam incidents are not reported anywhere. Let us start a culture of talking about scam sites. Share your knowledge and information with us to make the internet a little bit of a safe place to surf.
End Note
We all are fighting on a different battleground, let us unite our strength like ‘Operation Overload- the Battel of Normandy’ when allied forces put their whole strength on one point and turned the nature of battel. Alone we cannot win, together no one can defeat us.
BE HAPPY!!!
