Hello,

I do a lot of my communicating with my bank using email. I am very concerned about my sensitive account information falling into the wrong hands. Is there a secure email solution which protects my information?

Hi there,

Using email to communicate with your bank can make you vulnerable to phishing schemes and identity theft. Using the banks secure online banking solution directly provides more security.

If you prefer to communicate with you bank via email, consider using a secure mail service like protonmail.ch.

Best regards from Moneyguru
