How to check your phone to see if you can dial 000 in an emergency:
STOP. Always take a moment before giving your money or personal information to anyone. Scammers will create a sense of urgency to pressure you into acting quickly. Don’t rush to make decisions about money or sharing personal details.
CHECK. Make sure the person or organisation you’re dealing with is real. Scammers pretend to be from organisations you know and trust. Always verify who you’re really dealing with before taking any action. Scammers are use AI to make it look and sound real.
PROTECT. Act quickly if something feels wrong. The sooner you act, the better you can protect yourself and others from scammers.
Hackers gain access to your computer because YOU let them in.
