The latest episode of The Thriving Immigrant is out. In this episode, I sit with Ruth A., the founder of Techity Consulting.

How would I hack YOU during the holidays? By messaging you about the packages, deals, and gift giveaways you care about! Share these scam examples with your fam so they know exactly which emails, texts, calls, and posts to be wary of this December. Stay politely paranoid, folks ☃️🤖🤘 Thanks Meta for asking me to make this video to keep folks safe this holiday season. Many people only think of EMAIL when they think of phishing, but phishing is common across every tool! For example: - Phishing texts about "delivery delays" - Social media posts with scam sweepstakes - Calls about "fraud charges on your credit card" - Voicemails from the "FBI" Because so many people were trained to spot only phishing emails, there is a lack of education about just how tricky scam calls, texts, social media posts/ads, and voicemails can be. They use urgency around receiving gifts on time and our fear of fraud/monetary loss to trick! Cyber criminals think of their work like a business -- you know how business ramps up during the holiday buying season? So do hacking attempts. Criminals don't need to do research to determine you have a package arriving soon (& you want to avoid a delay in time for holidays). You may read this as a tech savvy person and think "I would never fall for an obvious scam like that!" and I hope your right. But, some scams are less obvious. Ie. An email from you insurance provider requiring info before winter enrollment period ends (attackers mimic real deadlines and typical messages). How to stay safe this holiday season? - Be politely paranoid - Use another method of communication to verify people/orgs are who they say they are (call, email, text, chat, etc) before taking sensitive actions - Use long, unique, and random passwords stored in a password manager - Turn on MFA for every account

We recently subscribed to GoHighLevel as it has had quite the buzz in recent years and we always test/explore systems in house before recommending/setting it up for our clients. It comes with A LOT and it takes some time to sort through the features that align with our current business needs and set it up properly. What’s most impressive so far is their 24/7 Zoom call that you can hop on and ask questions/get support. We have also explored features like Conversations (for replying to Google Business Reviews). We turned off the AI bot that automatically replies as we want our review responses to have the personal touch. We have also used the Marketing feature (social planner, emails, brand boards) For Black Friday, GoHighLevel is currently offering 50% off your first 3 months - https://lnkd.in/eDANkp4j If you’ve been curious to try them, this is a good way to explore further in addition to their 14 day trial they offer. Do you currently use GoHighLevel? Has it been a positive or negative experience? #gohighlevelreview #crmsystems #systemsforsolopreneurs
