Top tips to avoid common scams

Keep your passwords safe

NEVER give your online banking passwords or card reader codes to anyone who calls, emails, or texts.

Always double-check

Double-check all invoices or payment requests that come by email. Call the sender on a phone number you know and trust, not one from an invoice or message.

Think before you click

Only download files or follow links that come from a source you trust. Check first to make sure it’s safe.

Train everyone regularly

It can help to keep your business safe. Use our free online training course.
