They’ve got you by an emotional hook. Your concentration is on the panic of an unauthorized charge. The person calling is just making a friendly call to alert you – they’re on your side – you think. So the bells and sirens don’t go off in your head. The caller knows your name, address, phone number, and account number. It all seems legitimate.

If you’ve ordered anything online or via phone late Make Your Resume Keyword Rich and Scanner Friendly p>If you haven’t looked for a job recently, there are new tactics that hiring professionals are using that you should be aware of before updating your resume.Employers and recruiters increasingly rely on electronic resumes, resume posting boards and job banks to find job candidates. Resumes are either being scanned or input directly into keyword-searchable databases, and accessed when an employer inputs a keyword list of requirements that best describe the position they are seeking to fill.The database searches for keywords describing job titles, responsibilities and descriptions, degree requirements, computer knowledge as well as personality traits. The caller knows your name, address, phone number, and account number. It all seems legitimate.

You rattle off your PIN (personal identification number), the security digits on the back of the credit card, and any other information they need to handle the investigation. If you’ve ordered anything online or via phone lately, then you know everyone now requires the three to seven digit code on the back – something most thieves don’t already have. As you thank the representative repeatedly and hang up from the call, the person on the other end is either already charging up on your card or they’ve moved on to harvest this information from another unsuspecting consumer. The call is so convincing because these people identify themselves with authority. They say they’re from the investigation division of XYZ Credit Card Company. They know your contact information and account number. They may even give you their direct phone line and extension – which are just made up numbers because by the time they hang up with you, you won’t be able to call them back.

They may tell you that a white man, aged 25-30 with brown hair and a beard was seen on security cameras using your credit card number to buy a 52” Plasma screen TV set at ABC Store in Dallas, Texas. Your mind is spinning. You never realize you’re putting your credit at risk if you answer this person’s questions. They tell you that they’re going to open a fraud investigation on this individual – and in order to activate the investigation, they just need you to confirm some information. Some of it truly will be confirmation. They’ll repeat your name and address – and maybe even your account number. But they’ll also need YOU to confirm some information – details they don’t have – like your PIN or your security code. They’ll appease your suspicions by telling you to just call the toll-free number on the back of your card if you want an update on the case, and then they’ll tell you what your case number is. The way they ask for your security code is by saying they need to “verify” that you’re in possession of the card at this time. You verify it by handing your info over to a thief! You think it’s to make sure your card hasn’t been lost or stolen, but at that exact moment, it has been! So how do you react if this happens to you? First, never g
