Here are more tips
- Take a close look at the text messages and emails you receive. Make a critical assessment, check the sender and consider whether it may be legitimate. Healthy skepticism is never bad.
- Compare the email address with your previous real emails. Pay particular attention to false sender addresses, bad language and spelling errors. Criminals are getting better at creating fake emails and text messages.
- Be especially careful if you are asked for sensitive information such as account numbers or security codes in a text or email message.
- Don't open attachments from strangers and don't click links uncritically. Enter web addresses yourself in the browser.
