These three settings are very important when binding a bank card to a mobile phone, but many people don't know about it. If you're like me and you often use your phone to pay and link your card to your phone, it's important to remember that these three settings in your phone must be turned on to prevent the loss of your money. Many people may not be aware of these settings, so let's take a look. The following is a simple demonstration of Huawei mobile phones.
First, we find the icons of phone and message on our phone. After clicking on "Info", find the four dots in the top right corner and tap to enter the settings. In the settings, we need to turn on the "Malicious URL Identification" switch, so that we can identify the malicious URL in the information when querying online.
Second, make sure that the Captcha Security switch is turned on. Sometimes, when our mobile phone is bound to a bank card and receives a verification code, if we accidentally click on an unknown link, our mobile phone may be manipulated by others and read the verification code, resulting in unsafe funds. Therefore, be sure to turn on both switches.
The third switch, if you often use WeChat payment, then be sure to turn on the relevant settings in WeChat. Click on "Me", then on "Services", and then on "Wallet". In your wallet, turn on "Consumer Protection" and "Safety & Security", then be sure to turn on "Digital Certificates".
In addition, you can also set a fingerprint or gesture passcode as the unlocking method. That way, when someone wants to use your incoming and outgoing services, they'll need to be authenticated to turn it on. Even if your phone is lost, someone else can't open it directly because they need to unlock it first. This can greatly increase the security of our funds.
The fourth switch is to set the transfer arrival time. Also on the payment interface, click on the three dots in the upper right corner, find the "transfer arrival time", and modify it to 2 hours or 24 hours to the account. The advantage of this is that it gives us a buffer time in case we encounter a wrong transfer or fraud, we can contact customer service to recover the transfer.
