6: Just don’t put any financial info on your cell phone.
The only thing saved on my phone is my contact list, no saved passwords or credit card info. I do all that stuff at home on my PC which is more secure.
Don’t be lulled into a false sense of security. Home PCs are generally easier to break into, they’re just behind ISPs with at least a basic level of security. One wrong software install or malvertisement and your entire home network becomes an involuntary member of a botnet.
Exactly.
I would also add to be VERY WARY of ‘apps’.
If someone does banking online, one person said tO use an old computer, cheap one, uo to date software- a laptop or whatever, and only connect to the banking sitE and disconnect computer when done, and use other computers for every day use online.
