How to pay for mobile service and internet online safely — our tips.

1. Use trusted methods.

For example, pay for your phone and internet safely with the VouWallet e-wallet. You can keep only the amount you need for the payment in the wallet and don’t have to expose your bank card details.

Then, if fraud happens, you can seek protection from law enforcement.

2. Get a separate card for online shopping

and don’t keep large amounts on it. It’s better not to use a credit card for online payments.

3. Check the online shop where you plan to pay carefully.

Scammers sometimes create phishing clone sites that steal users’ data.

4. Don’t use public Wi-Fi for online transactions and shopping.

If there is no other option, use a VPN service for extra connection protection.

5. Use unique and strong passwords

for every account, and turn on two-factor authentication wherever possible.

6. Never share your card or wallet payment details.

Don’t give out your card number, expiry date or CVC/CVV code by phone, in messengers or on social media.

7. Install online shop apps only from trusted sources —

Google Play, App Store, RuStore.
