Tips to Avoid Fraud

We encourage you to be vigilant against scams during this time. The unfortunate truth is that the FTC has already reported that people are trying to take advantage of the fear and uncertainty of the COVID-19 pandemic. To keep yourself safe, and to stay ahead of the scams, here are a few tips to stay safe and avoid scams during this time:

• Visit our online security center - Learn more about current trends in the world of data security.


• Stay up to date with trustworthy information - Keep yourself safe by visiting pages such as the Federal Trade Commission, Centers for Disease Control and The Delaware Division of Public Health (Delaware Health and Social Services).


• Avoid clicking on links in emails - Clicking on a malicious link in an email can download a virus onto your computer or lead you to a webpage designed to trick you into providing sensitive information.


• Stay away from vaccination offers - The FTC is warning consumers to stay away from online vaccination offers. Avoid buying any prescription or over-the-counter products from any online source.
