[QUOTE="Ink, post: 913766, member: 3"] Online Banking Protection is a lie. You have to quite naive to buy into their marketing ads. The biggest risk are phishing/scam websites/pages, and following links from unsolicited Emails and Messages. Only do these tasks from your Home network, not on Public or Free WiFi. Avoid using a VPN. A VPN may interfere with how your bank's website monitors your behaviour when you visit the website, and may trigger an alert, or by temporarily locking you out. Use an up-to-date OS (ie. Windows 10 v1909+, macOS Catalina+ etc.), a modern browser (Chrome, Firefox, Brave etc.) , a trusted content blocker (ie. uBlock Origin), visit the official Banking website from Google*, or a previously saved Bookmarked. You can use a Password Manager to store your financial data, but personally, I would manually input the data. It's up to you. If you suspect the presence of malware, adware or other unwanted activity on your PC, do not proceed. *Using DuckDuckGo without your specific region may show unrelated results. [/QUOTE]
