Protect your passwords
Fraudsters try to guess passwords to get into your online accounts.
Learn how to create strong passwords.
Use strong passwords
Have a different and strong password for every account and website you use. Start with your email and then create a different one for your bank, social media and any other accounts.
If a fraudster hacks into one of your accounts, they could use it to:
- Access your other online accounts.
- Find your personal and banking details.
- Scam others by sending messages that pretend to be from you.
- Reset your passwords to take control of your accounts.
