Security

At uLink, your safety is our top priority. Although we stay on top of the latest technology and processes to keep you and your financial information safe and secure, there are measures that you can take at your end that can help us keep your account safe. Staying informed of what fraud may look like is the first step to avoiding it altogether.

Tips to avoid scams

05 Laptop 1

Take precautionary measures by enabling maximum security on the uLink SuperApp.

  • Use the privacy settings available to you by enabling Face ID or Touch ID to ensure an additional layer of security. In addition, we also highly recommend setting up 2-step verification on the email address associated with your uLink account.
  • Set a password that is unique. Duplicating passwords across platforms such as email, banking, and social media accounts can compromise your security and lead to identity theft.
  • Consider your password strength. “Password123” may be easy to remember, but need we say that it’s not safe? Hackers like to go for the low-hanging fruit and try the obvious options first. Avoid using your name, address, date of birth, or personal details while setting a password. Instead, use at least eight characters with a combination of lowercase and uppercase letters, numbers, and symbols in your password.
  • Do not share, autosave, or save your password online.
  • Change your password periodically.

This may seem obvious, but by only sending money to your closest acquaintances, you significantly reduce the possibility of fraud.

  • Do not send money for the purpose of claiming lottery prizes or other types of rewards with the promise of receiving money.
  • Do not send money to guarantee a loan, debit, or credit card.
  • Do not send money in response to offers made over the internet or the phone, especially when you are not sure of their credibility.
  • Do not send money to a person you don’t know or whose identity you cannot verify.
  • Do not send money to a person who claims to be a relative who needs money for an emergency.
  • Do not send money to pay the IRS or any other government agency that contacts you via phone, email, or message claiming that you owe money to the IRS.

When it comes to money transfers, it’s best to use your own Wi-Fi or cellular data network. Public Wi-Fi is notoriously vulnerable to hackers and should be avoided at all costs while placing any financial transaction.
