QR Codes Can Be Malicious
Cybercriminals are increasingly using QR codes to:
* Steal usernames and passwords
* Direct users to fake login pages
* Install malware on devices
* Trick users into making payments
Top Tip: Always check where a QR code wants to take you before proceeding. If you don't trust the source, don't scan it.
Think before you scan!
