Day 1: The Most Common Phishing Red Flags — What to Watch For
Description
🎄 Welcome to Day 1 of the 12 Days of Phishmas!
We’re kicking off the series with the foundation of all cyber awareness:
🔍 The Most Common Phishing Red Flags
These are the warning signs scammers can’t hide — the little clues that tell you something isn’t right.
And understanding them can prevent the vast majority of cyber incidents.
In this episode, I break down:
- The red flags hidden inside phishing emails
- Why scammers rely on small details to trick people
- How formatting, urgency, and sender details give them away
- Real-world examples I see in Australian businesses
- What you can do to protect yourself and your team
Most cyberattacks start with a single email.
Learning the early red flags is one of the simplest, most powerful defences you can build.
