Privacy Commissioner Michael Webster is reminding people that just because theyre taking an Easter break, doesnt mean scammers are.
Hes got three top tips this Easter to keep your privacy safe:
Think before you click any link in an email or social media does it seem real and legit?
Ask questions its unlikely that youll win an Easter lottery and be texted and asked to click a link.
Start a conversation with friends and whnau about how your family is keeping their passwords safe, strong, and private.
Michael says, theres a bit of a complacent attitude out there that a privacy breach wont happen to them. However, the reality is that privacy breaches are happening all the time. Being savvy and asking questions, being a bit wary, and having conversations with family and friends is a great way to help slow those.
