Online Safety Advice

BEWARE OF:

  • Sites that look like banks etc. Before signing in to any banking sites or carrying out any financial transactions online check there is a “padlock” in the site address bar and it begins with 'https'.

  • Free sample offers that take your card details and trick you into signing up for direct debits.
