LilianInThaHouse Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 Good afternoon, Some days ago I contacted Neteller support via facebook PM. Then I saw in comments Skype suppport and I was happy to get in touch that way. I added Neteller skype contact to my contact list and they asked me if I want to get verified. I was surprised and I asked, how do you mean verified.. ? He thought if I want to 'verify' my Neteller card as it will be active again and that's all still secret. In order to go trough verification process you must have at least 100 USD balance. The worse part is that I believed it was Neteller. They contacted me yesterday to but I didn't replied. Eveyone should be aware of this, I thought this can't happen to me but like you see, it did happen. I will ask them about 'verification' process and let you know what they asked, I guess they will ask for my personal info, what else .

ValDes Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 What, what?! You are saying that someone is offering fake Skype support on behalf Neteller? LilianInThaHouse 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LilianInThaHouse Posted February 5, 2017 Author Share Posted February 5, 2017 Yes Valdes but I am upset to see these people leaving comments on their official facebook page. I PM their support and asked for support link, there wasn't Skype support on the list and yes, someone is using their logo and name. Its crazy. I blocked them this morning, person on 'the other' side even said : ' Hello ' yesterday and I am 100% they are trying to get in touch and take 100 dollars. I will report them today to Neteller. I don't keep my conversation history I would gladly attach screenshot here. Raptordinos and Afi4wins 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually had the same email from Neteller and Skrill - Didn't read the Neteller one browsed the Skill one and had a look at the new fees but nothing else seemed to raise an eyebrow, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry to say, but the fees would be a lot higher soon for everybody, but Gold and above VIP members can still save on forex exchange fees.

Seems fishy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Afi4wins Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 Screenshot_7.png Good evening fellow members. Here is another e-mail, now this one looks more 'professional' and its really getting on my nerves now: The real Neteller WILL NEVER ASK for your password or answers to your security questions. These are secrets that only you know. These answers are all encrypted in Neteller's data bank, so Neteller staff themselves don't know what the answers are! Any requests for such answers are absolutely a SCAM...so please keep a watchout for these scammers everybody! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
