How do I keep my account safe?

At Plus500, we are committed to ensuring your account is protected from fraud, scams, and hackers. However, there are a number of ways you should protect your personal information.

Know the typical signs of phishing attempts

Phishing scams often involve urgent requests for personal information, suspicious links or attachments, incorrect sender email addresses, poor grammar/spelling, and offers that seem too good to be true. These messages can also sometimes mimic legitimate companies, like Plus500, and try to deceive you.

What to do if you suspect a scam

Never click on suspicious links or download attachments. Instead, contact Plus500 immediately if you receive a suspicious message or discover a fraudulent website. Access your account only through secure Wi-Fi and trusted devices, and consider enabling 2FA and changing your passwords regularly.

For more detailed information, read our Anti-Fraud Awareness guide.

Please remember that account security is your responsibility, and Plus500 cannot be held liable for damages resulting from negligence.
