Introduction to 'Stay safe from email scams'
How do you know if an email is genuine? Scam emails try to trick you into giving away personal or banking details. In this video, we show you a scam email and how to keep yourself safe if you get one.
Remember:
- Genuine companies don’t usually ask for personal details.
- Check the sender’s email address – does it look right?
- Spelling mistakes can be a clue that this is a scam, too.
- If in doubt, get in touch with the company using details you trust.
