SCAMS AWARENESS WEEK | Sylvie's Story

A scammer pretending to be from the NBN stole Sylvie’s money and personal information.

It’s so important for everyone to share stories such as these as they give us all a chance to talk more openly about scams and how to stay safe.

Scammers rely on 3 core tactics: impersonation, urgency and emotion. Recognising how scammers use these tactics with all scam types will help you spot scams.

This Scams Awareness Week, we encourage you to visit the Scamwatch website and keep up to date with the latest scams doing the rounds.

A quick reminder to pause⏸️before you click 📧

Scam emails are becoming increasingly convincing, making it easier to overlook the warning signs during a busy day – even whole fake websites can now look extremely similar to the real ones.

Taking a few extra seconds to check the sender, verify links and question unexpected requests could help protect both your business and your data.

Staying alert is one of the simplest ways to strengthen your cyber security.
