Get Safe Online today launches a new, free ‘Self Help Tool Centre’, designed to save thousands from online scams.
Created for the public and small businesses, Get Safe Online’s Self Help Tool Centre enables anyone to access, in an instant, nine easy-to-use, free tools to protect themselves, their family, finances, devices and workplace from fraud and other online harms. It is recommended that they are used in conjunction with the information and advice found elsewhere on the Get Safe Online website – with the primary aim of helping people use the internet safely, securely and with confidence.
The tools include ways to check whether a photo has been cloned or not, if a company is genuine and if you have been a victim of a data breach, as well as guidance on how to store passwords effectively and a brand new way to investigate whether you are at risk of oversharing on social media.
