Neteller
Tips - Security Tips and Fraud Prevention
At neteller, maintaining your account's
security is our top priority. To augment the security measures
that we take on your behalf, there are steps that you can take
to help protect your account from fraud and scams. |
Website Security
Type in the neteller URL: To safely and
securely access the neteller website or your neteller account, open a
new web browser (e.g., Internet Explorer or Netscape) and type in
the following: www.neteller.com/ |
Never share
your neteller password:
neteller representatives will never ask you
for your password. If you believe someone has learned your password,
please change it immediately and contact us. Create a secure password:
Choose a password that uses a combination of letters, numbers,
and symbols. For example, $co8o!place2l!ve or 2drry5B44onds#1.
Avoid choosing obvious words or dates such as a nickname or your
birth date. Keep your neteller password unique: Don't use the
same password for neteller and other online services such as
AOL, neteller.com, MSN, or Yahoo. Using the same password for
multiple websites increases the likelihood that someone could
learn your password and gain access to your account. Take a look
at neteller faq for further detailed info on this subject. |
Look for
a neteller Greeting:
neteller will never send an email with the greeting "Dear
neteller User" or "Dear neteller Member." Real neteller
emails will address you by your first and last name or the business
name associated with your neteller account. If you believe you
have received a fraudulent email, please forward the entire email—including
the header information—to spoof@neteller.com. We investigate
every spoof reported. Please note that the automatic response
you get from us may not address you by name.
Don't share personal information via email: We will never ask
you to enter your password or financial information in an email
or send such information in an email. You should only share information
about your account once you have logged in to https://www.neteller.com/.
Don't download attachments: neteller will never send you an attachment or software
update to install on your computer. |
Imagine
all the people not sharing:
Don't use your neteller account to collect or transfer
money for someone else. These types of activity are often conducted
as forms of money laundering or mail fraud and may result in
significant criminal penalties. If someone contacts you and asks
you to transfer money on their behalf, you should deny the request
and contact us immediately. Increase your security: Become a
Verified neteller member. Look for legitimate sites: Examine all
privacy and security seals before doing business with a particular
website and make sure they are legitimate. neteller is a licensee
of the TRUSTe Privacy Program. |
Foreign
Currency
If your Listing is on the UK site and is listed in £££ and
you sell to somebody who's playing poker Overseas
who wishes to pay in in Foreign Currency then you can apply a Currency Conversion
Rate which is higher than the “low” neteller
rate which will offset the neteller Charges. You must put into your Bid Description
what rate you are using with a statement like: Currency Conversion Rate - Dollars
$1.80 to the £1 Due to the rate changing keep an eye on the
rate, a good place to look is Auctionpix. At any case always keep your head clear
and look for the best neteller bonus out there. |
Good Old
English Pounds
The only way you can get back your neteller charge is by listing
in £££ on
the UK site and stating (you have to) that there will be a surcharge of £xx
for using neteller. However, as most Foreign, especially the Americans are veremently
oppossed to Surchages you may find that your potential Buyers may drop off too.
You are not allowed to make a % charge of the final bid value so the amount you
do Surcharge is a gamble anyway. |
neteller
Fiddle Factor
Did you know that you can have both a Premier Account and a Personal
Account running at the same time? Did you also know that providing
your Buyer transfers the full amount due to you entirely from
their neteller Balance that by using your Personal Account that
there are no neteller Charges?
So you use your Premier Account to accept Credit Card Payments, your Personal
Account to receive Balance payments and funds transfered from your Premier to
Personal account incure no charge.
As most of you will be operating a Premier Account what is needed to set up an
extra account,
Another email address hence new PP account ID a second credit card/debit card
(if your transactions exceed $500 per month) If you only have a single bank account
you can move it from the Premier account to the your Personal one and make all
your withdrawls from the Personal account, taking advantage of the fact that
funds received from neteller balances (your Premier Account) can be received
by the Personal account for no charge. You can read further on this matter at
the following articles site - read a on neteller fiddle factor.
Further more, Using the Full Balance into the Personal Account now looks more
attractive as the only cost is the £1
transfer to the UK Bank and if you spread this over say 5 auctions that will
bring each auction costing down to 20p This little fiddle is one way of making
a very good system cost you less in the long run if you use neteller a fair amount.
To save confusion for your buyers you can give them the eMail address for your
Personal Account and if they send you a payment which has not been funded from
a neteller balance it can be refunded to them and they can then be asked to send
the payment to your other neteller account. |
