You will be able to

  • Understand how a contact change requested by a fake customer leads to the takeover of their account

  • Check the full address, not the autocomplete
  • Recognise fake support: contact you didn't request, an external account, a reassuring display name, urgency

Programme

4 modules · 8 min
  1. "It's my account" 3 min
    • Understand how a contact change requested by a fake customer leads to the takeover of their account
    • Verify identity through contact details already on file, never through the new contact given or through facts the caller knows
    • Tell the customer on the old contact after any change, and follow the procedure despite urgency or annoyance
  2. “Send me everything you have on me” 2 min
    • Recognise a data subject request without magic words
    • Know the one-month deadline
    • Forward it the same day to the DPO, without answering, filtering or deleting anything yourself
  3. The wrong recipient 2 min
    • Check the full address, not the autocomplete
    • Use BCC or the right tool for group mails
    • Open the attachment before sending: hidden tabs and columns
    • Share sensitive files through a controlled link, never via personal tools
  4. Fake IT support 2 min
    • Recognise fake support: contact you didn't request, an external account, a reassuring display name, urgency
    • Never grant remote access (Quick Assist or any other tool) to support you didn't contact yourself
    • Hang up and call IT through a channel you know; if access was already given, end the session and warn at once
  5. Knowledge check

    12 questions, pass mark 80 %. Explanations after each answer; you can try again.

  6. Attestation

    One per person, with the date, the score and the frameworks covered — anyone can check it online with its code.
