Phishing is when someone tries to trick you into sharing your personal information, such as passwords or credit card numbers. This usually happens through fake emails or texts that pretend to be from trusted sources. If you fall for them, scammers can use that info to steal your identity.
Here’s how to protect yourself:
- Be wary of unsolicited emails and messages. If you get a text or email asking for personal information or prompting you to click a suspicious link, don’t trust it. Cogeco will never ask for personal information by text or email.
- Never click suspicious links or attachments. If something feels off, it probably is. Go directly to the official website or contact the sender using a number you trust.
- Keep your phone updated. Software updates often fix security issues that scammers try to exploit.
