Hackers Targeting Venmo and Other Apps
Hackers are targeting payment apps like Venmo and CashApp
Do you use money-sharing apps like Venmo, CashApp, or Zelle? I know I do without much thought at all. That might change, however. Experts are warning to beware of hackers who have been focusing on these popular apps. Digital thieves have been finding ways to hack into money-sharing apps like these, sometimes swiping thousands of dollars from unsuspecting customers.
So how can you protect your money? Experts recommend creating a separate bank account for the apps, with only enough money for your digital transactions. And make sure you know which apps you’re using – some bank customers say they were signed up for Zelle without their knowledge.
Do you use any of these apps? How much of your banking is done online?
