Always Logout<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>This is one of the most crucial<span style=\"color: #000000;\"> online security tips <\/span>I got for you! As soon as you\u2019re done making it rain on your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mobidea.com\/\">Mobidea<\/a> account, always play it safe and remember to logout.<\/p>\n<p>You need to focus on this detail, especially in case you happen to be accessing your account from a shared network, as you never know who\u2019s gonna enter after you.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2-never-save-your-password\"><\/span>2. Never Save your Password<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>It\u2019s crucial that you never save your password on the device you use to access Mobidea (or any other platform, for that matter.) Meaning: don\u2019t select the box containing the words \u201cSave my password\u201d or \u201cKeep me logged in.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Again: you need to be careful if you\u2019re entering from a shared network, as you don&#8217;t want someone else accessing your account, learning your secrets, and walking home with your hard-earned money! Remember: <strong>your account is exclusively for you and you only!<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3-dont-share-accounts\"><\/span>3. Don&#8217;t Share Accounts<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>It&#8217;s always better not to share accounts, especially if you don&#8217;t really trust the people you\u2019re working with. Make sure your account is never used by anyone else.<\/p>\n<p>Each account is unique and personal. If you\u2019d like to have your colleagues working with Mobidea, you can always refer them and they can open their own account with us!<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4-dont-share-passwords\"><\/span>4. Don&#8217;t Share Passwords<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>This is yet another fundamental <span style=\"color: #000000;\">online security\u00a0<\/span>advice! You should never share your personal password with anyone!\u00a0In fact, it\u2019s obvious that you should always keep this info to yourself.<\/p>\n<p>Please remember Mobidea\u2019s Control Crew assumes that every single activity done on your account is done by you, its owner!<\/p>\n<p>Since it\u2019s your responsibility, you might as well be careful and not fall prey to a password hunter that\u2019s out to destroy your money-making chances!<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5-dont-share-your-security-question\"><\/span>5. Don&#8217;t Share your Security Question<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>It\u2019s the same story as before, when you read about your password. Indeed, you should never share your security question. Moreover, be sure to set a Security Question that\u2019s so personal only you could know the answer! You should set a Security Question that no one else can guess, and I\u2019m referring to both strangers or close friends.<\/p>\n<p>The Security Question ain\u2019t supposed to be general culture! Only you can know the answer, my friend! Otherwise, might as well pay criminal minds to rob you blind.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6-go-incognito\"><\/span>6. Go Incognito<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>We also encourage you to use that obscure Incognito Mode on your browser, especially when accessing from a Shared Network. By using Incognito, you\u2019ll be using an anonymous navigation, meaning the browser doesn\u2019t record any history or cookies, and it disables browser extensions.<\/p>\n<p>Due to these reasons, incognito is much safer for you to use when accessing Mobidea or when doing any bank transaction, since the chances of having your data stolen on the Internet aren\u2019t so scary high!<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"7-change-passwords\"><\/span>7. Change Passwords<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Apart from not sharing your password, there\u2019s another really important aspect you need to take into account. Which one? You\u2019ve gotta change your password every 2\/3 months.<\/p>\n<p>By doing this, you\u2019ll be reducing the risk of someone else accessing your account. Remember that others would need time to find out what your password is. The tougher your passwords is (and the more often you change it) the harder it\u2019s gonna be for you to be hacked!<\/p>\n<p>If you tend to change it constantly (almost as a default mode), you\u2019ll be sure that you\u2019re playing on the safe side.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"8-dont-be-obvious\"><\/span>8. Don&#8217;t Be Obvious<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>This is so important, you guys! It&#8217;s the sort of <span style=\"color: #000000;\">security advice <\/span>you know before you were even born!<\/p>\n<p>Along with not sharing and changing your password, you also need to create a strong password. Always avoid easy-to-guess groups of words.<\/p>\n<p>A mix of numbers, special characters, and upper and lower case letters would be ideal. This way, it&#8217;s more difficult for the average scoundrel to guess your password!<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"9-we-never-ask\"><\/span>9. We Never Ask<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>This is crucial! The Support Squad never asks for your password\/security question. The Mobidea Crew will never ask for those secret parts of your monetization experience.<\/p>\n<p>Plus: always be careful with those emails where you\u2019re asked to fill in your personal accesses such as bank account details, passwords, etc. You should always do this directly on the Mobidea platform, on your bank, website, and so on.<\/p>\n<p>Phishing scams are pretty common nowadays. They tend to come about through unsolicited emails asking for those personal details. As mentioned above, your real bank would never ask for it! Be smart!<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"10-official-communication-channels\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">10. Official Communication Channels<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Mobidea&#8217;s official communication channels are our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Mobidea\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Official Facebook Page<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Email (affiliate-service@mobidea.com).<\/p>\n<p>If you wanna talk with us, feel free to contact us through any of those channels.<\/p>\n<p>Have you noticed some other channels that aren&#8217;t included on this list?<\/p>\n<p>Then you should definitely report them and notify the Mobidea Crew because those channels are FAKES!<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"11-configure-all-your-recovery-options\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">11.\u00a0Configure All Your Recovery Options<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Better safe than sorry! Yes, indeed! It\u2019s very important that you configure all password recovery options. It can be a Security Question, having a recovery email address, or a phone number (Email-based or SMS-based identity verification.) You name it, bro!<\/p>\n<p>As for Mobidea, along with your password, you should also set your security question.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, I\u2019m gonna give you a tip to make sure those security measures are tight: when requesting payments on our website, you\u2019ll have to go through a confirmation process on the email associated to your Mobidea account.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"12-check-your-surroundings\"><\/span>12. Check Your Surroundings<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>This might sound like it&#8217;s a bit too obvious but you always need to be sure that no one else is looking while you insert your password, security question, pin, etc.<\/p>\n<p>A simple method such as using your hand to shield this info can truly be a life-saver!<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"13-check-that-shady-url\"><\/span>13. Check that Shady URL<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Never open a file you don\u2019t trust. Always be very careful with the URLs while navigating online.<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes, you can find some that may look real, but can be a hidden fraudulent URL that&#8217;s been created for phishing attacks.<\/p>\n<p>URLs can be tricky! You should really bear this<span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0security tip<\/span> in mind!<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"14-detect-malware-like-a-pro\"><\/span>14. Detect Malware Like a Pro<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Using an internet-connected computer without using an anti-malware software would be like walking a tightrope. It\u2019s crucial that you regularly run malware, keyloggers and virus detection softwares on your computer. This way, you\u2019ll always have your device protected!<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"15-keep-your-link\"><\/span>15. Keep Your Link<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>You shouldn&#8217;t share the Smartlink or Offer link with other affiliates. Even if you trust them, you never know when they can make a wrongful use of it.<\/p>\n<p>Remember that &#8211; if a strange activity is detected on your account &#8211; we assume it was done by you.

Use the Company Email<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you work inside a company and wanna send traffic to Mobidea, it\u2019s always better to use the company email instead of an individual email.

Don&#8217;t Share Your Personal Documents<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Never share your personal documents online. You never know when someone can steal your identity and take advantage of it.<\/p>\n<p>Please remember that &#8211; in some cases, for security purposes &#8211; we might ask you for your identity documents.<\/p>\n<p>Never share!<\/p>\n<p>Use your brains, player!<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"20-use-a-fixed-ip\"><\/span>20.
