Webinar on Oct 21: Protect Yourself from Digital Payment Fraud After PayPal Incident
A webinar on enhancing digital payment security is set for October 21, 2025, following a PayPal security incident where attackers exploited a system glitch to submit numerous direct debits. The event aims to educate consumers on protecting themselves and others from digital payment fraud.
The webinar, to be held online from 3:00 PM to 5:30 PM, costs €59.00. It comes at a time when anyone, including experienced users, can fall victim to digital payment fraud. Criminals often prefer targeted deception over technical breaches, as seen in the PayPal incident where fraudulent calls were used to obtain PINs, TANs, or passwords.
The webinar will delve into the mindset and methods of attackers, providing attendees with a 'first aid kit' for emergencies. It will also teach how to recognize fraudulent online shops and marketplaces, and how to act quickly and minimize damage in case of an attack.
The webinar, hosted by an unnamed academy, is a timely initiative to empower consumers with the knowledge and tools to protect themselves and their environment from digital payment fraud. It highlights the need for continuous vigilance and education in the face of evolving threats.
