BITS ‘N’ PIECES

As many as 2000 under-privileged children sheltered under different NGOs had a fun day at Aladin amusement park and enjoyed recreational activities and fun-packed rides free of cost.

A.A Joyland (Pvt.) Ltd. under its “Care for Joy” social initiative hosted a party day for the deprived, abandoned and street children at Aladin Amusement park on Saturday.

The representatives of the participating NGOs lauded the initiative and appreciated the management of the park for realizing that such kids should also be given time and resources to entertain themselves in a very respectable way.

Staying phishing-free

• Keep it to yourself - never reveal your log-in details: Facebook will never ask you for your password in an email or send you a password as an attachment. Never reveal your login information to anyone.
• Just like real-life, don’t automatically accept friend requests from strangers. Scammers may create fake accounts to attempt be your friend. This will allow them to spam your newsfeed or timeline.
• Secure your account like you would any other valuables: Change your password regularly. This can prevent your account from being compromised by scammers who would use your account to contact your friends and family.
• Review your account activity and remove spam: You can check your login history for suspicious logins, and also check your installed apps and games that have access to your data. Remove those that you do not use.
• Check out Facebook’s extra security tools features: When in doubt about dubious updates or offers, double down on security. Facebook’s security tools provide you with an extra defence.
• Take action and report to Facebook: If an email or Facebook message looks strange, don’t open it or any attachments. Instead, report it to phishfb.com. If you want to report the conversation, remember to take a screenshot before you delete it. Keep in mind that this won’t delete the message from the other party’s inbox. Report Link is the best way to report abusive content or spam on Facebook.
• If you think your friend is the victim of a hack, let them know. Facebook can help you if you’ve been hacked, or they can visit the Help Center on Facebook to get help.
• Call the police, and your bank. If you feel you were the victim of a crime, please contact your local police department. And if you have mistakenly given your credit card details, immediately inform your bank or credit card company and also make sure you report the person or account to Facebook.
