HOW TO PROTECT YOUR MONEY

Your money is a valuable asset that you must protect. There are many things you can do to protect your money, both physically and digitally.

Keep your money in a safe place. This could be a safe, a bank, or a safe place in your home.
Do not carry large amounts of money with you. Only carry what you need for the day.
Avoid leaving your money unattended. If you have to leave your bag or purse, make sure it is closed and secure.
Be careful with public ATMs. Avoid using ATMs that are in dark or isolated places.

Use strong passwords. Your passwords should be long and difficult to guess.
Do not share your passwords with anyone.
Keep your software updated. Software updates often include security patches that can help protect your computer from malware.
Use up-to-date antivirus and anti-malware software. This software can help you detect and remove malware that could steal your personal or financial information.
Avoid clicking on links in emails or text messages from unknown sources. The links in these messages often lead to fake websites that can steal your personal or financial information.
Do not install software from unknown sources. Malware is often distributed through free software or pirated websites.

Educate yourself about financial scams. Read books, articles, and blogs about financial scams. Learn to identify the warning signs of a scam.
Be cautious with phone calls and emails. Scammers often use phone calls and emails to trick their victims. Do not respond to any calls or emails that ask for money or personal information.
Report any scams to the authorities. This will help protect other people from becoming victims.
