Santa and the Elves are busy stocking up the sleigh and going through that naughty & nice list. Which one are you on? One thing is sure, a gift from the WIXY collection is always a 'hit'!
And remember, sharing is caring - spread the word of WIXY1260Online with your friends and let us be the background (or dance) music for your gatherings. We will have live shows through the holidays, so keep an eye on our Facebook page or our Website for upcoming show times.

The holiday season sees a lot of people online shopping for gifts. It also sees a lot of grinches online looking to gift themselves your banking and personal data. At WIXY1260Online we believe the right way to use the internet is tuning us in and browsing our website, however there are billions of dollars stolen each year. In the 2023 holiday season alone, thieves walked off with over $10 Billion (not a misprint) of our hard earned dollars!

The best way to avoid scams is to always be one step ahead. If something seems suspicious, unexpected, or too good to be true, it's probably a scam.
We've compiled some tips to protect yourselves during the holidays and all year round while out surfing the choppy waters of the internet.
|
|
|
|
|
-Be suspicious of emails or texts claiming to be from your boss, colleagues, law enforcement, or family requesting money, gift cards, or bitcoin.
-No legitimate business or government agency will ask you to buy or pay with gift cards or bitcoin. Also, law enforcement will not demand payments over the internet in exchange for dropping fines, warrants or arrest threats.
-Verify any urgent requests by calling the person directly using a known phone number.
-Check email addresses carefully for subtle differences from legitimate contacts.
-Never click links in unexpected delivery, travel confirmation or itinerary change emails.
|
|
|
|
|
-Avoid posting detailed travel plans publicly. You don’t need any visits from the Home Alone burglars!
-Criminals monitor social media to identify when homes are unoccupied.
-Be cautious of messages from "old friends", or 'endangered' relatives urgently requesting financial help.
-Don't accept unexpected friend requests or click on links in unfamiliar posts or comments.
|
|
|
|
|
-Limit the amount of personal information you share online or with strangers. Scammers use this info to learn how to target their victims.
-Be skeptical of urgent language demanding immediate action, or requests for gift cards, payments, or personal financial information.
-Use official company websites directly.
-Enable two-factor authentication for online accounts.
-Update passwords regularly.
-Keep software and security systems updated.
-Trust your instincts if something seems suspicious.
