the full alert.
How to shop online safely...
Software updates Make sure you've installed the latest software &
app updates. Criminals use weaknesses in software to attack your devices
and steal information, such as your payment details.
Email
accounts Use a strong, separate password for your email account.
Criminals can use your email to access other online accounts, such as
those you use for online shopping.
Phishing Don't click on a link
in an unexpected email or text. The volume of online shopping related
phishing emails increases significantly during the holiday period.
Remember, if a deal seems too good to be true, it probably is.
Payment
methods Don't pay for goods or services by bank transfer unless you
know and trust the person. Payments via bank transfer offer you no
protection if you become a victim of fraud.
