How Can I Avoid Scams? This section is particularly useful for caregivers. If you are contacted with an offer of employment and a check for advance payment without having first interviewed with or spoken on the phone to a potential employer, you should exercise extreme caution—this is probably a scam. It's not unusual for sites that offer care providers to be targets of such internet job scams. Here are some suggestions for avoiding this type of scam: - By no means should you provide your social security number, credit card, or bank account information to someone seeking care. Although TheCaringSpace.com will request your social security number when running a background check, we will not store it in our system for longer than necessary.
- Do not agree to receive any payment from a care seeker if you haven't first met and interviewed with him or her. Similarly, if you're offered a check for a greater amount than what was agreed upon, do not accept it. As an added precaution, does not wire money back to anyone who pays you with a check.
- Using TheCaringSpace.com's messaging service rather than your personal email address to communicate with care seekers can provide added security.
- Avoid any offer that sounds too good to be true; this usually means it's a scam.
How Can I Protect My Online Information? TheCaringSpace.com takes your privacy and security seriously. We are able to offer a safe, secure community by adhering to industry-standard measures. Even so, we suggest the following measures to help you secure your information as well as our community: - CHOOSE AN APPROPRIATE PASSWORD Your password should be something unique that no one else will know, which means that you should avoid creating a password that includes your name, birth date, mother's maiden name, a pet's name, etc. For additional security, frequently change your password. TheCaringSpace.com will never ask you to provide your password, so if you are ever asked to provide it, do not give it out.
- EXERCISE CAUTION WHEN USING YOUR BROWSER Many computers temporarily store information in their internet browsers, so it's useful to be conscious of logging out and closing your browser every time you've logged into any website.
For remaining details stay in tune with thecaringspace.com. in the second part of this article we will be reviewing some other precautionary measures necessary for searching a reliable care giving agency. For more information you can log on to:
