98 - Internet and online security

online. To take advantage of many online services, you will 
inevitably have to provide personal information in order to 
handle billing and shipping of purchased goods. Since not 
divulging any personal information is rarely possible, the 
following list contains some advice for how to share 
personal information safely online: 

•

Keep an eye out for phony email messages. 

Things that 

indicate a message may be fraudulent are misspellings, 
poor grammar, odd phrasing, web site addresses with 
strange extensions, web site addresses that are entirely 
numbers where there are normally words, and anything 
else out of the ordinary. Additionally, phishing messages 
will often tell you that you have to act quickly to keep your 
account open, update your security, or urge you to provide 
information immediately or else something bad will happen. 
Don't take the bait.

•

Do not click on a link in an email

, unless you specifically 

asked for the email to be sent to you. If you get an email 
asking you to click on a link to perform an action, such as 
resetting your password, and you didn’t ask to reset your 
password, type the website address into your browser by 
yourself.

•

Don't respond to email messages that ask for personal 
information.

 Legitimate companies will not use email 

messages to ask for your personal information. When in 
doubt, contact the company by phone or by typing in the 
company web address into your web browser. Don't click 
on the links in these messages as they make take you to 
fraudulent, malicious web sites. 

•

Steer clear of fraudulent web sites used to steal personal 
information.

 When visiting a web site, type the address 

(URL) directly into the web browser rather than following a 
link within an email or instant message. Fraudsters often 
forge these links to make them look convincing. 

 

A shopping, banking or any other web site where sensitive 
information should have an "S" after the letters "http" (i.e. 

https://www.yourbank.com

 not 

http://www.yourbank.com

). 

The "s" stands for secure and should appear when you are
