As digital scams are getting more sophisticated, it’s important to learn how to spot common signs of fraud and report it to stay safe online.

If you receive a communication – a call, text, or email – that you think may not really be from dotifi, don’t respond, share any personal information, click on any links or open any attachments. Simply forward it to Phishing@dotifi.com and delete it.

Here are some simple tips to stay safe from scams and phishing:

Be cautious if the email:

Doesn’t use your full name and has a generic greeting
Has incorrect logos, design or looks strange
Contains suspicious website links
Includes attachments and software.

Be wary of false urgency.

Scams often create a false sense of urgency. If in doubt, log in to your dotifi account to check for urgent messages or notifications.

Watch out for offers that seems too good to be true.

Scammers may use false promises like money in exchange for a favor, lottery wins, or unsolicited job offers.

Never provide personal, credit card or account information via email, text or phone.

Always log in at time.i.ng/ to update your personal information, including your full name, credit and debit card numbers, bank account numbers, your driver’s license number, email, and password.
