Security tips for cyberscams:
Scammers exploit human vulnerabilities to achieve their goals. Before any offer, we stop to think rationally
Verify the identity of the person offering the offer (is it the official website?, we look for the veracity of the promotion by other means)
Be alert with the links we click, avoid impulsive reactions and curiosity
Be wary of urgent offers that expire in a short time
Do not provide personal information, neither identity nor address, nor passwords or bank details.
Block and report the network if you detect that they may be suspected scams.
Report the case to the police if you are affected.
