Learning about Internet shopping

March 3, 2017

We learnt about how to shop safely on the ‘Net’ with the help of volunteers Hugh, Ralph and Gillian.

Jake led the way with some great advice on how to make your password as strong as possible. Everyone was shocked to hear that the most common password in use is PASSWORD.

The verdict after the session was more confidence to shop online and less worries about buying things you don’t want.
