During this time of heightened scam activity, individuals and businesses are encouraged to:

  1. use multi-factor authentication where possible and don’t share your password with anyone
  2. run the latest software updates to ensure operating systems security is current
  1. secure your private Wi-Fi network with passwords (not the default password) and do not make financial transactions when using public Wi-Fi networks.
  1. exercise caution when clicking on links and providing personal identifying information.
  2. only access online government services via an independent search – not via emails or SMS.
  3. call us on an independently sourced number to verify an interaction if in doubt
  4. educate your staff on cyber safety and scams.
