 TITLE: Don’t Get Fooled By Scammers This April CONTENT: 4\\. Malware Tricks\n------------------\nMalware is software that a fraudster can install on your electronic devices to get their hands on your personal information. Once your device is infected, the tricksters will steal whatever they can get—such as personal records, credit card numbers and other sensitive information—and you may never know that it's happening. Scammers typically install malware through some type of trickery, like an email or social media message with a downloadable attachment or link. It's best not to open attachments or links in emails from unknown senders, and periodically run checks on your devices to make sure they haven't been infected. If you suspect something has been installed on your device, do not input any personal information until you've had the device checked out. Refer to this guide to learn how to deal with suspected malware on your device. END
