'Easy work, high salary' only exists in scams

There weren’t many options for part-time jobs back then. I tutored or collaborated at an English center, or worked at a restaurant. There was no such thing as a “light work, high salary” service where you could just sit at home and like, share, or comment and earn money.

Never be subjective, and certainly do not be too confident in your own abilities. Because scammers always know how to capture and manipulate psychology, if we are careless, we can easily fall into the pit.

When I worked part-time, there were also "ghost" services and companies, but the number of them that could fool students was not as large as it is in the high-tech era today. With the development of social networks, you have more opportunities to find jobs. You can even do it for fun, like creating content on social networking platforms, which, if good and suitable, can become a trend, and if you have a lot of channel subscriptions, you can earn money passively.

But I always warn students not to chase likes, views, and create toxic content on social networks. Spiritual food, if not provided by people with a heart, will cause great harm to the community. This can be verified on many social networking sites today, countless toxic and bad content is openly appearing.

Particularly with invitations for "easy work with high salary" or unsecured loan offers without any verification, even willing to lend large sums of money, one must be even more careful. I cite cases of people who have been scammed online, not because they have no information about high-tech fraud but still fall into the trap with the loss of hundreds of billions of dong.

You justify that you don't have much money in your account to worry about! But being psychologically manipulated, threatened or having your account taken over to scam others is entirely possible. It is not uncommon for scammers to target students because they know that you need to work extra to pay for your studies. More dangerously, not only do they scam you, but they can also be lured into doing things that violate ethics and the law, and by the time you realize it, it is too late, with little chance of correction.

The bad and the good still go together in life, so don't be too pessimistic or afraid when looking at life. It's never too much to be careful. I still remind you like that and don't forget to tell you to read the newspaper to get information, learn more skills to avoid traps or if you accidentally fall into a trap, know how to handle it to minimize damage.

Sometimes it is the bad heart in each person, maybe greed, sometimes gullibility, trust that makes us go astray. Don't let the money in your account grow wings and then lament when it's too late!
