Tips to use this festive season:

Do not use your social media profiles to log into other accounts.

Do not click on any random links.

Don’t respond to random e-mails claiming that you have won a prize or inherited money. Delete them immediately.

Be extra cautious when using Wi-Fi hotspots. Some scammers falsify popular hotspots.

Use strong passwords, with a variety of upper case and lower case letters, symbols and numbers.

Type in the URL for your bank in the internet browser if you need to access your bank’s webpage.

Make sure you are on the real website before using any personal information.

If you suspect you might have fallen victim, contact your bank immediately.
