Fraud Awareness

Protect your trading account and funds by taking some important precautions.

Protect your personal data online

Criminals move with the times and with the internet an increasingly important part of our daily lives there are certain practices you should follow to keep your data safe.

  • Links and attachments: think before you click on a link or attachment supposedly from your bank, utilities providers, tax service or other legitimate organisations. Fraudsters do a good job of pretending communication is legitimate but check for spelling errors and email addresses that don’t seem right. If in doubt, don’t click.

  • Passwords: use unique, complex passwords with a combination of lower and upper-case letters, numbers and symbols. Change them often.

  • Software: keep software on your PC and devices updated.

  • Internet security package: ensure you have internet security in place but remember this software will not provide 100% protection and all the other steps should still be taken.

  • Privacy Settings: review the privacy settings on your social media accounts and check what information you are publicly sharing. It will be safest to only allow friends to see your posts, comments and profile information. You may see "Sign Up With Facebook" or "Sign Up With Google" options but try and avoid logging into other sites with your social media credentials.
