(90% of identity fraud cases originated online.)
So, to prevent digital fraud, and that the Identity Theft do not continue to increase, we tell you five tips to avoid falling victim to thieves, according to Jumio, an online mobile payment company.
1. Remember that your data is exposed. It sounds basic, but most of the time people are not aware of how much information they have in the digital world.
2. Use two-factor or two-factor authentication (2FA) whenever you can.
(Increase in cyber attacks requires secure connectivity tools).
3. Be careful who you share your data with. Not only do you think that someone could abuse them, but you are also likely to lose them. Once you provide your data, it will be accessible in ways you can’t even imagine.
4. Review your statements regularly and identify each item in your bank account and credit card. Take full advantage of the automatic alerts provided by your bank’s app.
(Observability, a solution that goes beyond business monitoring).
5. Be careful when emailing or uploading a copy of your official identity document or passport. Always add your own watermarks: Include a date and clearly note “not valid for identification purposes” or even “this is specifically for (app name)”.
