Fake 'secure' website confirmed as phishing trap

A website disguised with the word 'secure' in its address has been confirmed as a phishing page designed to steal personal information. Children or parents could land on it via a link in a message, email, or social media post.

What to do: Do not click or visit this link, and remind your children never to enter passwords or personal details on unfamiliar sites — even ones that look official or say 'secure' in the address.

What this means for your family

Someone created a fake website that looks trustworthy to trick people into typing in passwords and personal information. Your family could accidentally land there through a suspicious link in a text, email, or social media — so teach your kids (and remind yourself) never to enter passwords or personal details on any site unless you typed the address yourself or clicked from a source you absolutely trust.
