Internet scams to know in 2026

Bank phishing

Fake email/SMS from your bank asking you to validate a transaction. Always go through the official app.

Fake SMS from courier services asking for delivery fees.

Romance scam

Fake profile, fast declaration of love, requests for money for 'travel' or 'medical emergency'.

Sextortion email

Threats to release intimate images (often bluff) in exchange for bitcoin. Never pay.

Fake tech support

Microsoft / Apple pop-ups. No legitimate vendor proactively calls you by phone.
