Always remember that it is extremely easy for someone to forge an email message to make it appear as if the message has been sent by your bank, a software vendor ( e.g. Microsoft ) or another entity with whom you may do business. If a message requests that you send your password or other private information or asks that you run or install an attached file, then it is very likely that the message is not legitimate. When in doubt, just mark the message as 'junk' and delete it.

Be cautious when clicking on links sent to you in email messages. If you do click on such a link double-check the name of the site as shown in the location bar of the browser and be especially careful if the site name displayed is an IP address (e.g. '192.168.25.75' ) instead of a domain name ( e.g. 'www.example.com' ) - in the former case it is very likely the site is not legitimate. Don't consider entering any personal information into forms displayed at such a site and if you have any concerns whatsoever about your security just close the browser window.
