Common signs of a scam

It's urgent or threatening: “act now”, “your account will close”, “you'll be fined”.
It asks for a code, PIN, password or card number. Real companies never ask for these.
It wants payment by gift card, bank transfer, crypto, or a small “fee” through a link.
A family member texts from a new number and suddenly needs money.
It asks you to keep it secret, or to call a number it gives you.

Not sure? Don't tap anything in it. Call the company using the number on your card or bill, not one in the message.
