Teri's CyberTips April 2017

SEVEN WAYS TO BEAT PHISHING SCAMS! The people from Norton are pretty smart when it comes to Internet security. They've prepared some tips to help you fight the currently rampant phishing scourge. Evil cons use phishing to collect personal information from unsuspecting users. Their phony e-mails often look quite legitimate, and even the Web pages where you are asked to enter your information may look like the real McCoy - but often they are not. The quickest and easiest way to verify if the request is on the up and up, is to contact the organization that is requesting your information (by phone or from the company's legitimate web site). They can tell you in a flash if the request is legitimate. The Norton tips will give you even more insight into how these rascals operate - and, of course, at the end of their tips, there's a little backslapping pointing out how Norton can protect you from all of this dangerous phishing and other threatening stuff.
