Know How to Spot Phishing Attempts: Phishing is one of the most common ways cybercriminals attack. Don’t reply or click on any links in unsolicited or suspicious emails or texts.
Pick Strong & Unique Passwords: Pick a different password for each of your online accounts. Don’t use birthdays, anniversaries, pet’s names, children’s names, or common phrases like “password” or 12345.
