Don’t get caught out by a cybercriminal. Avoid getting phished by looking out for these warning signs:
• Inspect the subject line, time of the request, and content. If a message is enticing, was sent at an unusual time, contains content unrelated to the subject, or puts you under pressure to act, it may be dangerous. • Think about the origin of the message. Confirm the request with the relevant person or institution you know via a verified contact method, like a phone call. • Links and attachments are the easiest way for cybercriminals to send malicious software. By not clicking, you foil their attempts.
Trust your intuition. Stop and think. Take a breather before reacting or giving in to the request, and report any messages that do not seem legitimate.
