Don't click any link before asking these questionsRead the full article here:
Clicking or tapping a link in an email, text or just on a website is always a bit of a gamble. On the other end of a link could be the information you want to see, or it could be a malicious website, virus-filled download or inappropriate content. Sometimes the only way to know for sure is to click. However, there are some important questions you can ask first that will give you a good idea if the link is safe or not.
1. Where did the link come from?
2. Why am I clicking the link?
3. Does the link look right?
4. Is there a second opinion?
5. What's on the other side?
