How to Protect Yourself from Identity Theft and Phishing Emails

In today’s digital world, protecting your personal information is more important than ever. Identity theft and phishing emails can put your financial security at risk. At Dora Financial, we are committed to keeping your information safe and want to share key tips to help you avoid becoming a victim of these scams.

What Is Identity Theft and Phishing?

Identity theft occurs when someone uses your personal information without permission to commit fraud. One of the most common tactics is phishing, where scammers send fake emails or messages pretending to be from legitimate companies to steal your information.

Warning Signs of a Phishing Email:

🚨 Unexpected requests for personal or financial information.

🚨 Suspicious links that redirect you to login pages that look real but aren’t.

🚨 Emails with urgent or threatening language, like "Your account will be suspended!"

🚨 Poor grammar or spelling mistakes in the message.

🚨 Unfamiliar sender email addresses that don’t match the company’s official domain.

How to Protect Yourself:

✅Never share your personal or banking information through email, phone calls, or text messages. Dora Financial will never ask for your password or PIN.

✅Verify links before clicking by hovering over them to see the actual URL. If in doubt, go directly to the official Dora Financial website or app.

✅Be cautious with attachments, especially from unknown senders. They may contain malware.

✅Use strong, unique passwords and enable two-factor authentication (2FA) for extra security.

✅Monitor your account regularly for unauthorized transactions. If you see anything suspicious, report it immediately through the Dora Financial app.
