That email from “Amazon” about a suspicious order? Look at the email address. If it’s “[email protected],” it’s a no from me. Hover over any link without clicking. Weird URL? Delete.
Pro tip: Never click links in unsolicited emails. Even if they claim your Netflix bill is overdue. Go to the website yourself. Scammers hate that one weird trick.

Oh, you have a new match! He’s a soldier in Syria. She’s a model who lost her wallet. They love you instantly—but can only chat on a messaging app. Red flags! Stop before you fall for a fictional person.
Real love doesn’t ask for gift cards or money for a plane ticket. If it does, it’s a scam. Block them faster than you swipe left.
