Some incoming SMS messages should be deleted immediately.
According to Gadin.Net, this was stated by Stanislav Kosarev, director of the IT Institute of Synergy University.
According to him, this warning primarily applies to messages containing passwords and passwords sent to confirm banking transactions.
In addition, it is better to delete SMS with links to access the personal account.
"Even if they are disposable, fraudsters can use them," the expert said.
Kosarev also advised to remember which SMS on the phone contain passwords from sites.
"In all likelihood, they should be sent to the 'basket'," he added.
The expert said that in addition to clearing messages, care should be taken to protect the data on the phone with a password.
“This can be done via fingerprint, Face ID or digital password. The main thing is that the password does not contain the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. In addition, the phone should be locked, even in front of the eyes, "Kosarev said.
