We don’t pretend to be experts in information technology as
well as furniture removals! Christchurch removals is where we excel.
We also have no reason to believe that anyone has ever tried
to deceive anyone else by pretending they were Christchurch Removals
online. Even so, we’d like to publish
here are a few very basic thoughts about how you can protect yourself from one
of the commonest online scams, that involving “phishing”.
Phishing
This is a generic term given to a range of potential online
frauds.
They typically involve someone, somewhere, pretending to be
someone else. That usually means they’ll
pretend to be a company or institution you already do business with and
communicate with you via email using that false identity.
A common approach is to send you an e-mail that may have all
the appearances of coming from someone you have legitimate contact with. That
e-mail invites you to follow a link to logon and check something relating to
your business with them.
In reality, if you follow that link, you will be taken to a
bogus site where you may accidentally disclose private information such as your
id and password. Read more about......Anti-Phishing Advice.
