Truffe via email prendono di mira i Rotariani

Il Rotary International continua a ricevere notizie di truffe via email che prendono di mira i Rotariani.

Una delle tante truffe dichiara che il destinatario dell'email è stato selezionato per vincere un premio, ma il vincitore deve prima fornire i propri connotati. Un altro esempio di truffa è quella che dichiara che un Rotariano defunto ha lasciato un'eredità al destinatario dell'e-mail per donare il lascito ad un ente di beneficienza. Il mittente, che dichiara di essere l'esecutore testamentario, chiede al destinatario di fornire informazioni personali inclusa una copia del passaporto, della patente di guida, ecc. per poter ottenere l'eredità in questione.

Ecco un esempio di truffa in circolazione (in inglese):
