3. Use strong authentication — Enable two-factor authentication with an authenticator app, not SMS
4. Report suspicious activity — File reports with police, Cybermalveillance.gouv.fr, and relevant platforms
5. Share sensitive information securely — Use LOCK.PUB to create password-protected, expiring links when sharing via LINE

What to Do If You Are a Victim

2. Secure your accounts — Change passwords and enable stronger authentication
3. Report to Cybermalveillance.gouv.fr — France official cybercrime assistance platform
4. Monitor your accounts — Watch for unauthorized activity in the following weeks

Sharing Information Safely

The best defense is awareness. Share this information with family, friends, and colleagues. Create a secure memo on LOCK.PUB containing emergency contacts, official numbers, and safety guidelines, shared with a password known only to your trusted circle.

Bottom Line

Staying informed is your best protection against evolving fraud techniques. Never share sensitive information through unsecured channels, verify identities independently, and report suspicious activity promptly. When you genuinely need to share confidential data, use secure tools like LOCK.PUB to ensure only authorized recipients can access it.
