How to Stay Safe Online
Remember these simple rules to protect yourself and your loved ones from scams.
Never Share Passwords
No bank, government agency, or legitimate company will ever ask for your password by text, email, or phone call.
Don't Click Unknown Links
If you receive a link you weren't expecting, don't click it. Go directly to the company's website by typing the address yourself.
When in Doubt, Call Directly
If a message claims to be from your bank or a company, hang up and call them using the number on their official website or your card.
Gift Cards Are Never Payment
No real business or government agency will ever ask you to pay with gift cards, Bitcoin, or wire transfers. This is always a scam.
Be Wary of Strangers Online
If someone you've never met in person asks for money or personal details, be very cautious — even if they seem friendly.
Urgency Is a Red Flag
Scammers want you to act fast so you don't have time to think. A real emergency allows you time to verify. Slow down and check.
