Staying Safe Online

01.Protecting Your Digital Castle

Since most money is digital today, staying safe online is just as important as locking your front door. Cybercriminals try to steal passwords, credit card numbers, and bank details using email, text messages, or fake websites.

02.Passphrases and MFA

Use strong, unique passphrases for all your accounts instead of simple passwords (like '12345' or 'password'). Turn on Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), which sends a code to your phone to verify it's really you trying to sign in. It's a double lock on your digital vault!

03.Never Share Details

Never share your PIN, passwords, or bank details with anyone—not even friends. Legit banks will never ask you for your password over text or email. If you get a suspicious message, show it to a parent!
