Security Tips For A Safe Online Experience
At UseMyServices Inc., our main goal is to protect the security and integrity for both are Sellers and Buyers. To augment the security measures that we take on your behalf, there are steps that you can take to help protect your account from fraud and scams.
Website Security
Always type in the full UseMyBank URL http://www.usemybank.com, to safely and securely access the UseMyBank Services website or your UseMyBank Services member account.
Password Safety
Never share your UseMyBank Services password. UseMyBank Services representatives will never ask you for your password. If you believe someone has learned your password, please change it immediately and contact us. Create a secure password. Choose a password that uses a combination of letters, numbers, and symbols. For example, $coo!place2l!ve or 2Barry5Bonds#1.
Avoid choosing obvious words or dates such as a nickname or your birth date. Keep your UseMyBank Services password unique. Do not use the same password for UseMyBank Services and other online services such as AOL, MSN, or Yahoo. Using the same password for multiple websites increases the likelihood that someone could learn your password and gain access to your account.
Email Security
Do not share personal information via email. UseMyBank Services will never ask you to enter your password or financial information in an email or send such information in an email. You should only share information about your account once you have logged in to http://www.usemybank.com. Do not download attachments. UseMyBank Services will never send you an attachment or software update to install on your computer.
Use Your Account Wisely
Do not share your account. Do not use your UseMyBank Services account to collect or transfer money for someone else. These types of activity are often conducted as forms of money laundering or mail fraud and may result in significant criminal penalties. If someone contacts you and asks you to transfer money on their behalf, you should deny the request and contact us immediately. Look for legitimate sites. Examine all privacy and security seals before doing business with a particular website and make sure they are legitimate.
Identity Theft
This is when a criminal uses your personal information to open new accounts. In the case of identity theft, the criminal will obtain personal information about you and use that information to secure credit as if they were you. They will open credit card accounts, take out car loans and home equity loans in your name, leaving you responsible for the bills. Repairing the damage identity theft causes is both time-consuming and highly stressful.
