🚨 Today's CYBER904 Cybersecurity Tip 🚨
"The CEO Needs Gift Cards... Again?"
You know the email...
"Hey, it's me, the CEO. I'm in a meeting and can't talk right now. Please buy $500 in Apple gift cards and send me the codes ASAP."
Meanwhile, the real CEO is sitting 20 feet away eating a sandwich and wondering why everyone keeps asking if he needs gift cards.
🎁 Cybercriminals LOVE gift card scams because once those codes are sent, the money is usually gone for good.
Before buying anything:
✅ Verify the request by phone or in person
✅ Check the sender's actual email address
✅ Be suspicious of urgency and secrecy
✅ Remember: Legitimate executives rarely conduct business via gift card purchases
A 30-second phone call can save thousands of dollars.
