Scams and cyber threats are constantly evolving, but staying informed can help you recognize suspicious activity before it becomes a bigger problem.
Fraud can take many forms, from phishing emails and fraudulent text messages to phone calls that appear to come from a trusted organization. New technologies, including artificial intelligence, can also make impersonation scams more realistic by helping criminals imitate familiar voices, create convincing messages or make fraudulent requests appear legitimate.
Protecting yourself doesn’t mean you have to become a cybersecurity expert. It starts with simple habits: be cautious with unexpected requests, avoid sharing sensitive information, take time before sending money or approving a transaction, and independently verify communications when something doesn’t seem right.
