10 golden rules for staying safe online
अनलाइन सुरक्षाका १० सुनौला नियम- Never share an OTP or PIN - with anyone. No bank, wallet, telecom company or police officer will ever ask for it.
OTP वा PIN कसैलाई नदिनुहोस्। - Don't tap links in unexpected SMS or Messenger messages about prizes, KYC, blocked accounts or parcels. Open the official app yourself instead.
अपरिचित लिङ्कमा क्लिक नगर्नुहोस्। - Turn on two-step verification for Facebook, WhatsApp, Gmail and your wallet app. It stops most account takeovers.
दुई-चरण प्रमाणीकरण खोल्नुहोस्। - Use a different, long password for each important account - three or four random words work well. Test yours.
- If a friend asks for money online, call them on their usual number first. Hacked Messenger accounts are the most common trick.
पैसा माग्ने साथीलाई पहिले फोन गर्नुहोस्। - You never need to scan a QR code or pay a fee to receive money, a prize, a loan or a job.
- Install apps only from the Play Store or App Store, and never install an APK file sent to you on WhatsApp or Viber.
- Update your phone and apps when updates arrive - they close the holes attackers use.
- Think before you post your citizenship card, passport, phone number or location publicly.
- If something goes wrong, act fast - call your bank and report it. Shame helps the scammer, not you.
