The Internet can be a fun and exciting place to explore, but it can also present dangers such as fraud, viruses, and identity theft. Fort Bend County Libraries will present a special program, “Phone & Online Safety Tips,” on Thursday, January 9, from 7:00 to 8:00 pm, in the Muliti-purpose Room of the Cinco Ranch Branch Library, located at 2620 Commercial Center Blvd in Katy.
The Internet can be a source of information and entertainment, but users should be aware of possible dangers and be vigilant for online predators. In this program, Sergeant Matthew Carl, a fraud investigator from the Fort Bend County Sheriff’s Office, will talk about ways to recognize and avoid common Internet and phone scams. Learn about free online security tools as well as tips and tricks for using the Internet wisely and safely.
The program is suitable for adults and teens aged 14 and up.
The program is free and open to the public. For more information, see the Fort Bend County Libraries website (www.fortbend.lib.tx.us), or call the Cinco Ranch Branch Library (281-395-1311) or the library system’s Communications Office (281-633-4734).
