Stop
If you receive a suspicious call, email or text, pause and assess.
Genuine organisations like MLC never pressure you to act immediately or ask for your password via email.
Malware can target you through:
Emails or messages with links or attachments.
Malicious websites attempting to install malware.
Exploiting vulnerabilities in outdated software.
To spot malware, watch out for:
- Unusual account activity.
- Sluggish performance or rapid battery drain.
- Unexpected or inaccessible files and frequent errors.
- Automatic redirects to web pages you didn’t intend to visit.
