Cyber Safety Tips
Essential tips to protect yourself from online frauds, scams, and digital threats.
🔐 Never Share OTP
Never share your One-Time Password (OTP), PIN, or password with anyone. Banks and government agencies will never ask for your OTP over phone, email, or SMS. OTP is like the key to your digital life — keep it safe!
Remember: Your OTP is only for you. No one else needs it.
🛡️ Verify Before You Pay
Always verify the website URL and merchant before making online payments. Check for https:// and the padlock icon in the address bar. Never make payments on suspicious websites or through unknown links.
⚠️ Beware of Fake Links
Don't click on suspicious links received via SMS, email, or WhatsApp. Always hover over links to see the actual URL before clicking. Scammers often use fake links to steal your personal information.
Tip: Type the website address directly in your browser instead of clicking links from messages.
🏦 Secure Digital Banking
Use strong passwords for your bank accounts and enable two-factor authentication. Never use public Wi-Fi for banking transactions. Always use your bank's official app or website for financial activities.

Be careful about what you share on social media. Avoid posting personal information like your address, phone number, travel plans, or financial details. Scammers can use this information to target you.
