What is a View2Offer.com login seal? |
| 1.1 |
A login seal is a unique message or image that you select to help protect your View2Offer Account from phishing websites. Phishing (fraudulent) websites copy legitimate websites. These websites are designed to steal your password or personal information.
After creating a login seal for your computer, you can be sure you're on the legitimate View2Offer.com site each time you log into View2Offer.com using your computer with the same browser. Simply check whether your customized text or image is displayed on the View2Offer.com webpage. If it's not there, you may have log into a fake View2Offer.com site.
A login seal is only saved on the computer you created it on. If you use more than one computer or browser, you need to create another login seal for each computer using that browser.
Important: Never create a login seal on a public computer.
