Do not open suspicious emails. Look for misspellings, awkward requests or inconsistent grammar.

Use anti-virus and anti-malware software to automatically detect and eliminate malicious software.
Always be cautious when opening and reading your e-mails. Most viruses and scams are covered up with names of companies you trust. Just be careful what you open and click!
