Bank
On a Safe Computer
Install and regularly update anti-virus,
anti-spyware and firewall software on your computer. Avoid using public
computers or internet cafes. You never know who could be watching and a scammer
may be able to retrieve your details from the computer after you have finished
using it. Always log out from your internet banking webpage when you have
finished. Clear your browsing history.

Protect
Your Personal Details
Keep your banking information private; never tell
your PIN or password to anyone. Choose a secure password with both letters and numbers
avoid using any obvious giveaways such as your date of birth, part of your
name, address or your pets. Change it regularly.
Do not use the same password for multiple purposes, make
sure you have different passwords for accounts with different banks and the
other internet sites you visit. Do not just bin personal information and bank
statements destroy them first.

Be
Suspicious Of Emails
A legitimate bank or financial institution will never
email you asking you to follow a link or asking you for personal details. If
you receive an email that you think may be genuine, telephone your bank or
financial institution to let them know about the email and ask their advice.
If you receive a call from someone who claims to be
from your bank and says your account been defrauded or they have seen a
suspicious transaction, you should ask for their name and number, and say you
will call them back. Check the number they give you against the number you
normally contact your bank with. It could be a legitimate security check.
