In Te Ngahere we have been learning to avoid Scams and Phishing when we go online. I think this is really important because I know people who have easily been scammed because of pop-ups and emails. This is actually a challenge that was given to us by Manaiakalani.
One way they try to scam you is by using an unsafe site and then they proceed to ask for your personal information(eg: your g-mail log in) and since they’re using an unsafe site they can easily see what you wrote. To avoid this you look at the lock pad at the top next to the tab bar and if there is a red line through it then it’s unsafe.
Something new that I learnt is that EVERY POPUP IS BAD because they duplicate themselves and they could give you a virus.
I found this very difficult to do at first because I only included some of the information on why the email/pop-up was fake or legit.
Did my DLO help you with avoiding Scams and Phishing? ”
