The Most Wonderful Time of the Year

We love this time of year. It’s filled with fun, family, fellowship, food, and unfortunately phishing…

Scammers love this time of year too. The holiday shopping frenzy makes for easy phishing attack and hacking victims. PremierePC is here to help you learn how to protect yourself so you can have a great holiday season.

Do not click on links in emails.

If you’re not sure of the sender, or you didn’t request the email, do not click on any links or open any attachments. Instead, contact the company via their website or phone and ask for more information.

Beware of urgency.

Scammers will play on the fear of missing out on something, like a big holiday sale or a deadline for a bill. Resist any pressure to “act now.”

Watch for emails asking for private information.

Legitimate organizations will never request personal information via email. Do not email information such as passwords, credit card numbers, social security numbers, etc.

Research the website.

Scammers are getting better at creating fake websites that look real. Do your research before submitting payment to any sites.

Know your Wi-Fi.

Using public Wi-Fi creates many potential areas for hackers to breach and grab your data or sensitive information. Do not make purchases using public Wi-Fi networks like coffee shops, libraries, hotels, etc.

Keep track of orders.

Scammers will send fake delivery failure notices or package tracking emails to sway you into clicking a link or submitting personal information. Always keep track of what you’ve ordered and who will be delivering it. If you receive one of these emails, call the delivery service or as your post office.

Some of the best ways to avoid scams is continued education and a comprehensive security plan for your business. Contact PremierePC today to see how your security stacks up.
