How to get your money back

Many are already aware that the fraud associated with the distribution of "new" versions of Opera Mini or "updates" for this most popular mobile browser in the world has recently assumed simply indecent proportions. Swindlers have already ceased to be afraid, they write about their “traffic monetization schemes” almost openly, and they often think that they are engaged in a completely legal business. Everyone sees different reasons for such an increase in crime: someone is offended by the company Opera (they say - are inactive), someone is at his operator, and someone just waved his hand and thought that he was to blame.

In fact, neither those nor others, nor others are right. For our part, we are doing everything possible to reduce the number of cheated users. The mobile operator is also not interested in any rogues stealing from its customers. Those who blame only themselves for everything are also mistaken: you can deceive anyone, even the most suspicious and cautious person. The only question is how cunning is the crook.

In general, it is easy to defeat this type of fraud, if you take the whole thing together, all together. And an important role here is played not only by the efforts of Opera Software and mobile operators, but also by yours - after all, the users of mobile devices and the Opera Mini browser are the main target of the scammers. Moreover: without your help, all our efforts will be ineffective.

So, what do you need to do when faced with fraud? If you have already lost some amount from your account, without losing time, inform your operator about the incident, indicating all available details: your phone number, date of the incident, the amount stolen from you, the short number to which SMS was sent, etc. . etc. Today, all mobile operators have appropriate online forms or special channels for sending messages about fraudsters, here are some of them:
')
Megaphone
MTS and MTS mobile version
Beeline
Tele2 Instructions and Tele2 Welcome Report

What will give you an appeal to the operator? First, all the money stolen from you will be returned to you . Secondly, your signal will help in the detection of unscrupulous content providers that allow fraudsters into their programs. Thirdly, the more people will turn to the operator, the faster the operator will be able to calculate the rogues and take appropriate steps to stop their activities.

If you do not find contacts on your operator’s website to send messages about fraudsters, go to the nearest office and consult with managers what you should do. I repeat that by refusing to inform the operator about the scammers, you simply donate your money to rogues. Remember that you can always return the stolen money by contacting your operator.

Let me remind you that all Opera browsers are distributed for free, you can download them either from the off.site or directly to your mobile phone via this link m.opera.com
