| the banks themselves still are to blame...
I think the banks/credit card/mortgage companies are still to blame.
I have received calls from my mortgage company (it was a legit call), and they ask me to verify my identity with a street address, etc - I always reply back "you are the one who called me, you already know who I am" - it seems to hit the tilt button for some of them...
Also, I still receive legit emails from banks (like Capital One, etc) that have links to some offer that they want you to click on.
When will they learn? Teach your customer to NEVER TRUST any links or emails 100%. In your email you should say, open a browser and goto www.mybankwhatever.com/specialurl - this is the only safe way for both ends... (well, now with dns hijacking, it might not be with unsophisticated users) |
