What are some common online scams to be aware of?

### REPLY:
One common online scam is the "Nigerian Prince" scam, where scammers claim to be wealthy individuals in need of assistance to access their funds. They promise a significant reward in return for helping them, but in reality, they are trying to trick victims into sending money or revealing personal information. Another scam is the "pharming" scam, where scammers create fake websites that look legitimate to steal login credentials or financial information. Additionally, there are various email and SMS scams claiming to offer large sums of money or prizes, but they usually aim to extract personal information or payments.
