How Can I Avoid Common Email Phishing Schemes?

The following are some tips to help you steer clear of phishing schemes:

  1. If you get an email or pop-up message that asks for personal or financial information, do not reply or click the link in the message. Legitimate companies do not ask for this information in email.
  2. Never disclose personal or financial information in email. Email is not a secure method of transmitting sensitive information.
  3. Review credit card and bank account statements as soon as you receive them to determine if you have any unauthorized charges.
  4. Use anti-virus software and keep it up to date. Some phishing email messages contain software that can harm your computer or track your activities on the Internet without your knowledge.
  5. Be cautious when opening any attachment or downloading any files from email messages you receive, regardless of who appears to have sent them.
  6. Report suspicious activity to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). If you believe you have been the victim of a scam, file your complaint at www.ftc.gov.

However, if you lost access to your domain or customer account, you may be required to verify your identity by producing government-issued photo identification and/or business identification. This verification process is secure, and we will never share this information with third parties.
