Scammers are constantly trying different ways to get your information and access your accounts, so commonly encountered scams can vary. Some of the currently trending threats include:

1. Phishing
   These are designed to trick you into revealing personal data, such as your account login information or tax registration number. Phishing emails can often appear to be from a legitimate source, like your bank.
2. Malware
   Malicious software that can steal your personal information or damage your computer. Malware can be installed on your computer through links or attachments in phishing emails, as well as infected websites or USB drives.
3. Ransomware
   A type of malware used by hackers to encrypt your files and then demand a ransom payment to release them.
4. QR code scams
   Posters are placed in ATMs or other locations to appear legitimate and trick you into scanning a QR code, which then takes you to a fake website requesting your personal information.
