Having someone else gain access to your personal information makes things worse. Your phone might hold access to your email, banking apps, social accounts and other sensitive information. Acting quickly helps limit the damage. 𝐓𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐬𝐞 𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐩𝐬 𝐅𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭. ♡ Use Apple’s Find My or Google’s Find Hub to locate and remotely lock your device. ♡ Secure your accounts, starting with your email. Change exposed passwords and revoke the stolen device’s access where possible. ♡ Contact your mobile carrier to suspend your SIM. Ask whether they support blocking the phone’s IMEI. ♡ If necessary, erase the device remotely. Keep in mind this might limit your ability to track it afterward. ♡ Ignore messages asking for your passcode or verification codes from people claiming to have found your phone. 𝐓𝐨𝐝𝐚𝐲’𝐬 𝐓𝐚𝐬𝐤: Check your phone’s remote-finding settings and confirm your screen lock is secure. Till next time, Cyber Luv 👩🏽‍💻💘

Or an NFT promising a reward if you visit a website? Don’t rush to claim anything. That freebie might be bait. Scammers use unsolicited tokens and NFTs to lure wallet owners to fake claim websites. These sites might steal wallet credentials or trick you into signing malicious transactions. 𝐃𝐨𝐧'𝐭 𝐓𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐁𝐚𝐢𝐭. ♡ Verify airdrops through the project’s official channels. ♡ Never share your Secret Recovery Phrase or private key. No legitimate airdrop requires either. ♡ Read wallet transaction requests before signing. If you don’t understand what you’re authorising, don’t sign. ♡ Leave unfamiliar tokens and NFTs untouched. Don’t follow their links or attempt to swap them. Use your wallet’s hide or report feature if available. 𝐓𝐨𝐝𝐚𝐲’𝐬 𝐓𝐚𝐬𝐤: Check your wallet for unfamiliar tokens or NFTs, and leave suspicious assets untouched. Till next time, Cyber Luv 👩🏽‍💻💘

Losing access to your email or other important accounts at the same time makes things worse. If your account relies on a verification code sent to a device you no longer have, getting back in becomes harder. The good news? A little preparation goes a long way. 𝐓𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐬𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐩𝐬 𝐛𝐞𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐦: ♡ Check that your recovery email and phone number are current and accessible. ♡ Generate backup codes for accounts offering them, especially those protected by two-factor authentication. ♡ Store backup codes somewhere secure and separate from your phone, such as a locked physical location or a secure password manager. ♡ Review alternative sign-in methods, such as an authenticator app, passkey or security key, where supported. 𝐓𝐨𝐝𝐚𝐲’𝐬 𝐭𝐚𝐬𝐤: Pick one important account, review its recovery options and securely save its backup codes if available. Remember, account recovery works best when you prepare before losing access. #CybersecurityAwarenessMonth Till next time, Cyber Luv 👩🏽‍💻💘
