Not only can junk and SPAM emails and phone calls be annoying…
they can be very dangerous.
Phishing scams cost U.S. businesses more than $1.2 billion in 2018. Thieves prey on unsuspecting individuals and convince them to click on links or provide information to gain access to your personal or business accounts, files, or data. Fraudulent emails, phone calls, and texts happen all year round but we usually see an uptick in activity around the holidays when people are more actively shopping and communicating online. Increased online activity, due to COVID-19, has also lead to an increase in criminal activity – for both businesses and individuals.
