You’re not alone as it’s one of the most searched travel questions online. But while searching, watch out: scammers are creating fake airline websites and customer service pages to trick travelers.
Scammers know that people often search for things like "Cathay Pacific baggage policy" or "how much luggage can I bring?" They create lookalike sites that ask for personal info, payment details, or even trick you into calling fake hotlines.
Some scammers send fake booking or baggage fee emails claiming to be from Cathay Pacific. If you receive one, don’t click any links — check your official booking account instead.

If you’ve recently received a call or text from 800-925-6278, you’re not alone. Many people look up this number to check if it’s really Walmart — or something more suspicious. Here’s what you need to know.
Walmart uses this toll-free number for customer support, and in many cases, calls from it are completely legitimate. But here’s the catch — scammers can spoof official numbers to make it look like they’re calling from Walmart, even when they’re not.

Hi everyone,
Microsoft will end support for Windows 10 on October 14, 2025. If you're still using a PC with Windows 10, it's important to understand what this means and how it affects your device's security.
After October 14, 2025, Windows 10 will no longer receive security updates, bug fixes, or technical support from Microsoft. While your PC will continue to function, it will be more exposed to malware and other cyber threats.
Staying on an unsupported version of Windows increases your risk of being affected by unpatched vulnerabilities. For the best protection, upgrade to a supported version of Windows as soon as possible.
