Check your URLs


Cybercriminals are apparently registering domains like rnicrosoft—yes, that's r-n-i-c-r-o-s-o-f-t—because in most fonts, "rn" looks very similar to "m” (especially on mobile), then sending fake security alerts to users so they click on them.

These fake sites mirror companies’ branding perfectly, making them nearly impossible to spot unless you're really paying attention. The fix: Hover over every link to check it before you click, and when in doubt, just type the URL yourself.
