Phishing Scam Awareness

Phishing scams use fake websites, disguised emails and deceptive messages to trigger a sense of urgency. A victim may be told that an account is at risk or that a payment failed, prompting them to click a link and enter login credentials.

Tell-tale signs

  • Unusual sender addresses
  • Misspellings or urgent language
  • Links with lookalike domains
  • Requests for passwords or OTPs

How to protect yourself

  • Type the website address directly
  • Use browser security warnings seriously
  • Check account notifications from official apps
