- Use a virtual private network (VPN) on public Wi-Fi. VPN encryption keeps your data from being spied on in transit. These services also anonymize your data so it cannot be traced to you through IP address or other means1.
- Consider using a call-blocking mobile app or device to screen your calls and weed out spam and scams2.
- Do not give out personal information. Do not give out credit card or online account details over the phone, unless you initiated the call3.
- Protect your computer. Install anti-virus software and keep it up to date4.
I hope this helps!
