A simple verification routine for invoices, mobile-money requests and unexpected transfers.
What to look for
Pause when a request creates urgency, asks for secrecy or directs you away from an official channel. Verify the request using a phone number, application or website you already trust.
What to do
- Do not share passwords, PINs or one-time codes.
- Confirm identities and payment details independently.
- Keep records and report suspicious activity promptly.
