2. Ensure that you have a strong, unique password for all of your work accounts that cannot be quickly guessed. To ensure security, choose simple passwords that are easily guessed.

3. To ensure maximum security, use technologies such as two-factor authentication. To gain access to your accounts, the scammer may need to provide a code to your smartphone in addition to your passwords.
