Getting online can make life a lot easier but can also bring up problems of its own. Issues like email scams and fraud are increasing in number, and this can impact your safety online. You can protect yourself from these if you know what to look for, and how to keep yourself secure online. We have rounded up some tips to help you make the best of your time online, without risking your safety.

Email Scams

Scammers send bogus emails in the hope that people will enter their personal or financial details. Sometimes, these emails can look like they have come from a legitimate company, but there are key things you can look out for to recognise that it’s a scam:

• errors in the spelling or grammar, or an unusual style of writing
• requests for personal information, such as your username, full password, or bank details - genuine organisations will never ask this
• threats
