Safe & Secure Transactions

Learn to recognize scams and frauds.

We suggest that you take a look at the information below and become aware of the warning indicators of the most frequent types of Internet and Email frauds. There are two kinds of scams that email users encounter – “spoofing” and “phishing”.. In both cases the ‘from address’ is faked to appear to come from a source it is not.

What is Phishing?

Phishing is the attempt of criminals to “fish” for your personal information. A phishing attempt is usually in the form of an email, which encourages you to click a link that takes you to a fraudulent log-on page designed to capture your account/password/personal details. They can be used to entice users to download harmful software. It is important to note the following: GODAWARI PLATE PVT. LTD. does not ever ask you to download any software to access your data.

What is Spoofing?

Spoof emails usually contain fake offers of employment or an invitation to make a financial transaction. These types of scams are unfortunately prevalent all over the world and can affect anyone, including innocent applicants. The sender’s address is typically hidden and/or the sender might not have provided all the information about themselves, such as proper physical addresses, phone number and email address.
