4 Ways Of Preventing Phishing Scam Customer.

Action aka phishing
attempts targeting the theft of
sensitive information that bank
customers have repeatedly
occurred. Here are four tips adala
who could hold onto customers so
as not to fall for the trick-trick this
action.

1. Origin Check Email
Usual mode waged cyber criminals
is to send an email teaser to a
number of people. The contents of
electronic mail will usually ask the
prospective victim to visit a
particular site, to then re-register
(include your username and
password e-banking customers.)

Well, for those customers do not
necessarily believe if you get an
email with a model like this. First
check the origin of the sender's
email, if using an official email
domain from a particular bank or
not.

Because, if they use the email
domain is not clear, it need not be
trusted email. Although at the end of
their email claim from the
concerned bank.

2. Not Quite Through Email
Re-register by entering your
username and password is a
sensitive activity. So, delivery-
related information of this activity
also can not be arbitrary, only via
email.
A number of banks admitted if they
want their customers to re-register,
they usually do not just let me
know via email.

But also through
more personal means, namely
contacted directly. There also are
using an official letter, although the
combined-match with the email as
well. At least, the bank treats these
events with more professional.

3. Reverse Phone
Do not hesitate to call customer
service bank you use. Better to be
alert, rather than hesitate, but
instead led to bad things for you.

4. Distinguishing Genuine or
Fake Site
Sites that financial institutions use to
login normally have a security
system tighter. First, see the website
address. Site logins should use the
prefix 'https' instead of 'http'. Https is
a secure version of http.

Suffix 's' in 'http' indicates that these
sites actually have 'secure', because
the technology is protected by
Verisign SSL encryption of data.

On the site e-banking, Bank
Permata is asphalt , also
contained the logo 'Security Verisign
Site'. To the layman, it would be
difficult to distinguish. That can be
one benchmark validity of an e-
banking site is the URL that is written
is 'https'.

Then at the bottom right of the
browser (for Firefox) there is a
locked padlock image. As for
Internet Explorer (IE), this yellow
padlock in the URL field.

If the victim involuntarily fill your
username and password in asphalt
sites, it can be ascertained that such
personal data, including records e-
banking activities of his, will be
known by other parties who are not
responsible.
