11, be careful with attachments
Try to avoid attachments you didn't ask for, from people you don't know. If you have to open it, disable macros in #Office

10 – Something just doesn’t look right
Sometimes you need to go with your gut if something doesn't feel right, it still might be #phishing

9, The message claims to be from a government agency
Generally government agencies don't use #email. If you aren't sure, check, go to the official #website and ring them.

[Bytek IT Solutions @Bytek_IT]

8, The message makes unrealistic threats
A stranger is probably not going to sue you on the first email. #Police don't email arrest threats. Take a minute and think, check if the person is real.

7, You have to send #money to cover expenses
See tip 5, sending money to a stranger and hoping for a return is probably not going to end well.

6, You didn’t initiate the action
This could be winning a competition you didn't enter, but also someone asking for something unexpected. take a minute to check! #scams

5, The offer seems too good to be true
Just use common sense!

[Bytek IT Solutions @Bytek_IT]

4, The message asks for personal #information
Never reply to an email with personal information like date of birth or a #password! Banks already have this info and will never ask for it over email!

[Bytek IT Solutions @Bytek_IT]

3. The #message contains poor spelling or grammar
#Phishing attacks can be poorly written. they could also use spellings close to the right word like bitek or byetek instead of Bytek

[Bytek IT Solutions @Bytek_IT]

2. Check for misleading #domains
Domains should be read right to left, so bytek.ie is at the right, so everything in that domain is good and owned by Bytek. example . bytek . site . com is not bytek!

[Bytek IT Solutions @Bytek_IT]

1. Watch out for mismatched URLs:
Hover your mouse over links in emails to check they are going to the #website you expect
