1. Check the sender's address.
Do not trust messages that seem official but come from a strange or suspicious email (e.g., [email protected] instead of [email protected]).
2. Do not click on suspicious links.
Hover over the link before clicking it, or long-press it (on mobile) to see the real address. If it differs from the official site, do not open it.
3. Avoid sensitive information through links.
Do not enter your password or banking information except through the official app or the site you type yourself in the browser.
4. Use two-factor authentication (2FA).
It helps protect your accounts even if your password is stolen, as logging in requires a verification code sent to your phone.
5. Keep your programs and systems updated regularly.
Updates close vulnerabilities that attackers may exploit.
6. Beware of messages that use urgency or threats.
For example: "Your account will be suspended within 24 hours" or "You have won a prize, register now!" – these are common scams.
7. Use protective software (Antivirus).
It can detect fake sites or malware.
8. Learn common phishing examples.
Such as fake login pages or messages that request money transfers or account activation.
