Email

  • Disable image downloads in your email client
  • NEVER return personal information in an email
  • Use an email client that can filter junk email
  • Do not click links in unsolicited emails
  • Browse directly to a known website to see if something on your account requires your attention (Use a search engine to find the site if you are unsure of the site's proper address.)

Surfing 

  • Do not save passwords in your web browser
  • Install a firewall/router on your Cable/DSL modem
  • If you purchase a router with Wi-Fi or wireless access, be sure to set enter a strong key to prevent unauthorized access  to your Internet connection and/or personal information
  • Watch for "Yellow Padlock" while entering personal information on purchases and joining new web sites especially while entering credit card information

Phishing 

Phishing, pronounced like "Fishing", is a new spin on an old con. Someone tries to elicit your personal information by posing as someone you trust.

Remember to browse directly to a known website to see if something on your account requires your attention. Use a search engine to find the site if you are unsure of the proper site address.

NEVER return personal information in an email such as your SSN, passwords, PINs, banking account numbers, etc.

Also, avoid giving this kind information over the phone.
