BEWARE! DON’T GET CAUGHT BY PHISHING SCAMS

Tips to avoid Phishing Attacks:

• Don't respond to email requests that ask you to verify personal information such as username, password, credit card number or Social Security number.
   
• Be suspicious if the email message asks you to respond immediately.
   
• Don't click on the Web Links within an email message if you suspect a scam.
   
• Only use secure Web sites - those that have "https://", rather than just "http://" (without the 's') - if you use your credit card number.
   
• Log into your online accounts regularly to check for suspicious or fraudulent activity.
   
• Always report "phishing" or "spoofed" emails to the following groups: reportphishing@antiphishing.com or the Federal Trade Commission at spam@uce.gov.
   
• Notify the Internet Crime Complaint Center of the FBI by filing a complaint on the Web site: www.ic3.gov.
