Social Media House Rules
We manage a number of social media accounts to help our customers and share news and info about Tesco Insurance.
Choosing the right channel
Staying safe on social media
- Be careful what you share. Don't reveal any personal information like bank account details. The more you share online, the easier it is for fraudsters to steal your identity.
- Think twice about who you’re speaking to. Fraudsters may try to befriend you online. If you don't know a person, or think they might be impersonating someone you know, avoid the conversation.
- Use different passwords for each of your social media accounts and think about adding additional protection to your accounts, like setting-up two-factor authentication.
- Click links with caution. Fraudsters may use hacked accounts to send harmful links. Look for unusual language or content in messages you receive. If something looks suspicious, contact the sender using a different method to check it's really them.
- Be aware of privacy policies. Look at the privacy policies and privacy settings of the social media accounts you use. Use your privacy settings to control who sees what you post or can see your profile.
