Look out for phishing scams disguised as social media games

Have you ever completed a quiz on Facebook? Although questionnaires are good fun, cybercriminals sometimes design them to solicit personal information. Be wary of any that ask you to share personal information in the comments section, such as your first job or your pet’s name – these are often the type of questions used to authenticate login credentials or request a change of password. Watch out for any that ask you to provide sensitive information over social media or come from a suspicious source.
