WHAT IS PHISHING

Phishing is a fraud method where criminals try to gain access to your personal data or money through fake links or messages. They often pose as legitimate companies to trick you into clicking on a link or disclosing information.

  • Typical signs of phishing attempts include:
  • Urgent requests to act immediately or enter data
  • Offers that seem "too good to be true"
  • Suspicious emails, SMS, pop-ups, or social media messages

Stay vigilant and avoid interacting with unknown links and attachments.

TIPS TO PROTECT AGAINST PHISHING

Safe Email Handling:
Emails from MerciVie will only come from the official address info@mercivie.com. If you're unsure about the source of a message, do not respond or open any attachments. Contact us directly through our official channels.

Checking Links:
Before clicking on a link, hover your mouse over it to see the URL. Avoid links or attachments from untrusted sources.

Suspicious Language:
Watch out for poor spelling or unusual phrasing, which are common in phishing emails. Even if this isn’t always the case, it's best to stay cautious.

No Rush Decisions:
Fraudsters often rely on pressure tactics. Ignore any unexpected requests for payment information or personal details that seem urgent.

REPORTING FRAUD

At MerciVie, we never ask for payment details for contests or promotions outside of the checkout process. If you notice a phishing attempt:

  • Do not respond to suspicious messages.
  • Report fraud attempts to your local police authority.
  • Contact your bank if any suspicious transactions have occurred.
  • Change compromised passwords as soon as possible.

Your security is our top priority, and swift action is crucial in protecting your personal information.

CAREFUL HANDLING OF SOCIAL MEDIA

Limit the amount of information you share publicly. Fraudsters often use personal details to create convincing phishing attacks.

  • Optimize your privacy settings to control access to your content.
  • Avoid sharing sensitive details such as your address, phone number, or financial information.

PROTECTION THROUGH SECURITY SOFTWARE

Rely on trusted antivirus and anti-malware solutions for your devices. These tools detect and block threats before they can cause harm. Regular software updates are essential.

USE SECURE NETWORKS

Always use a secure Wi-Fi connection when shopping online. Public networks pose significant risks. Private, password-protected networks offer better protection. VPN technology (Virtual Private Network) further enhances security by encrypting your data and safeguarding your privacy.

REGULARLY BACK UP IMPORTANT DATA

Regular backups protect against data loss due to cyberattacks or technical failures. They ensure that your data can be restored in case of unexpected events. IMPORTANT DATA
