2. For many seniors, technology can be intimidating,
especially when it comes to financial payments,
online shopping, communicating with others and
trying to get comfortable using it frequently.
Though they’d prefer doing everything by hand
and the old school way, the reality is that
technology is advancing and many things are
becoming solely available on technology. Here are
some tips from European-based website,
MyAgeingParent.com, about how to help seniors
stay safe when on-line:

3. TIP NUMBER 1
With on-line shopping and banking, this site
says to make sure each site is secure by
checking if: There is a padlock symbol in the
browser window; The web address should
begin with ‘https://’ because the “s” stands
for ‘secure’; If a pop-up message warns about
a website’s security certificate to be aware as
it may redirect to fake website, click the
padlock symbol to check identity and current
certificate address.

4. TIP NUMBER 2
Some other tips are to use a strong password
by avoiding maiden names, rather use a mix
of upper and lower case letters and numbers
but make sure to write this down!

5. TIP NUMBER 3
If a deal looks too good to be true, it probably
is so avoid anything offered in a spam email.

6. TIP NUMBER 4
Only use one credit card so it is easy to
cancel if anything goes wrong. Never give
away financial details unless completely
confident of company contact, and only use
on-line retailers that have good reputations
and are established.
