The Link Looked Right: Seven Seconds Before You Click
A message arrives from your bank. It knows your name, uses the right logo, and warns that a new device has signed in. Everything looks legitimate, including the link. That is exactly why polished phishing works. In this episode of Breach Signals, you will learn a seven-second routine for checking what a message wants, choosing a route you trust, and finding the domain that actually controls a link. You will also learn what to do if you already clicked, entered a password, or shared a one-time code, and how Scan.now can help you inspect a suspicious destination safely.
