While social media helps us stay connected, it can also expose us to fraud, identity theft, and cyberattacks if we’re not careful. Cybercriminals often use platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn to gather personal details or trick users into clicking malicious links.
Here are a few tips to keep your information secure:
- Be cautious with what you share. Avoid posting personal information like your full birthdate, address, or travel plans.
- Don’t click suspicious links or DMs. If it looks off or too good to be true, it probably is.
- Use strong, unique passwords for your social accounts and enable two-factor authentication whenever possible.
- Review your privacy settings regularly to control who can see your posts and personal details.
- Watch out for fake accounts. Scammers often impersonate businesses, banks, or even friends.
At Bank of Bozeman, your security is our priority. If you ever receive a suspicious message that appears to come from us, don’t click – call us directly.
