Keep yourself safe from cyber crime this holiday period
Be suspicious of potential disinformation
Verify information is correct before you share anything on social media.
Don’t click on advertisements
Only shop from trusted retailer websites. If a deal seems too good to be true, it probably is.
Beware of fake delivery notifications
If you receive a notification for an unexpected delivery, don’t click the link unless you have confirmed the purchase is real.
Be careful downloading apps
Only download apps from your device’s certified app store. Confirm the publisher is trusted and if in doubt, don’t install it.
Monitor bank account and credit card activity
Turn on alerts to notify you of activities such as large purchases or international transactions. Call your bank or credit issuer by using the telephone number on the card if you notice anything suspicious.
