Questions fréquentes
What is phishing?
Phishing is a type of cyber attack where criminals send fraudulent communications that appear to come from a trusted source. The goal is to steal sensitive data like credit card numbers, login credentials, or install malware on the victim's device.
How can I identify a phishing email?
Look for these red flags: generic greetings instead of your name, urgent language demanding immediate action, suspicious sender email addresses, misspelled words or poor grammar, requests for personal information, and suspicious links that don't match the company's official domain.
What should I do if I clicked a phishing link?
Immediately disconnect from the internet, run a full antivirus scan, change passwords for all important accounts starting with email and banking, enable two-factor authentication, monitor your accounts for suspicious activity, and report the incident to the impersonated company and authorities.
