And never reuse passwords for different accounts!<\/li>\n<li><strong>Enable\u200c alerts:<\/strong> Set up alerts so that you\u2019ll be \u2063notified if there\u2019s any suspicious activity. That way, you\u2019ll \u200bbe in the know if \u2062someone attempts to access your account without permission.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Also, be sure to update your password regularly.\u200b Use a different one every few months if possible.

To hackers, \u2062this is \u200can almost unbreakable barrier.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Be aware of social engineering tactics:<\/strong> Social engineering is when a scammer \u2062attempts to acquire information\u200d from you via \u200cmanipulation, usually\u2064 by pretending to be\u2064 from a legitimate company.
