What Is Phishing? And How to Protect Your Email and Money
Phishing is one of the most common ways people get hacked in Ghana, and it can steal your MoMo, emails, and social media accounts.
Let’s break it down 👇
🎣 What is Phishing?
Phishing is when cybercriminals pretend to be someone you trust (like MTN, your bank, or even your school) to trick you into giving your login details or money.
They usually use:

🚨 Real-Life Example:
You receive an SMS:
“Your bank account is suspended. Click here to verify: http://fake-link.com”
Once you click and enter your info, hackers take over your account.
🛡️ How to Protect Yourself:
Don’t click on random links. Always double-check the URL.
Never give your password to anyone — not even MTN or your school.
Enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) on email and social accounts.
Use a spam filter in your Gmail or Yahoo.
Educate others. Share what you learn.
✅ Stay alert. If it looks suspicious, it probably is. If unsure, ask someone in tech to check.
