    Post Almost Fell for a Phishing Scam

    What?s your go-to strategy for spotting phishing attempts or dealing with cyber scams? Do you use tools like anti-phishing extensions or follow any specific practices

    To spot phishing attempts, I look for red flags like suspicious links, urgent language, and unusual senders. I verify requests by contacting organisations directly, use tools like anti-phishing extensions and updated antivirus software, and enable two-factor authentication for added security. Staying informed and limiting personal information online also help minimise risks.
