Tech Update: Social media Christmas shopping scams are here
Are your employees doing any last-minute online shopping while they’re at work?
You may be OK with this as Christmas gets closer. But the rise in social media and email shopping scams means you need to be aware of the risks.
Our latest tech update video has everything you need to know.
It’s nearly Christmas, and that means online scams are on the rise.
If your people are using their work devices for some last-minute shopping, they could be putting your business at risk of a cyber attack.
That’s because nearly half of people have admitted to falling for some kind of online scam.
It’s easily done. Maybe they clicked a link in a phishing email. That’s an email that looks like it’s from a person or brand you trust… but actually it’s from criminals.
Or they clicked on a social media offer that was too good to be true.
To keep the festive fraudsters out of your business, make sure your people know what to look out for.
And if there’s any doubt, don’t click that link, and never download that file.
