Haddii aad ka hesho fariimaha qoraalka ah ee Microsoft , waxay noqon karaan kuwo run ah, ama waxay noqon karaan nooc isku day ah oo phishing ah. Waxaan kaga hadli doonaa labadaba qoraalkan ku saabsan sababta Microsoft ay qoraal kuugu soo dirayso. Iyada oo fariin qoraaleedku noqotay mid caan ah, khiyaanada ku lug leh SMS's waa inay soo baxaan! Smishing  waa erey laga soo minguuriyay Adeegga Fariimaha Gaaban^{(Short Message Service)} ( SMS ) iyo Phishing . Aan ogaano!

Waa maxay sababta Microsoft ay qoraal iigu soo dirayso?

Haddii uu jiro xiriir fariinta qoraalka ah, iska jir. Waxay noqon kartaa isku day phishing sida lagu sharaxay qaybta xigta. Laakin haddii ay tahay nambaro ama wax alifnumeric ah oo ku jira fariinta qoraalka, waxay noqon kartaa erayga sirta ah ee dhabta ah ee hal mar ah ama wax isku dayaya in la aqoonsado haddii ay dhab ahaantii isku dayayso inaad gasho akoonkaaga Microsoft .

Xisaabaadka leh habaynta hubinta laba-tallaabo waxay helayaan fariimo qoraal ah oo ka kooban macluumaad kaa caawin doona inaad dhamaystirto habka soo gelida. Farriimaha noocaan ah ayaa dhif ah ka kooban xiriir kasta. Haddii aad ku aragto xidhiidh gaaban fariinta xaqiijinta akoontiga, waa inay ku gaysaa maqaal sal aqoon ah ama fur bogga taageerada Microsoft . Keliya^(Just) ha gujin isku xidhka adoon ogayn halka xidhiidhku u socdo. Waxa jira balaadhinyaal URL^{(URL expanders)} oo kaa caawinaya inaad aragto halka xidhiidhinta la gaabiyay (bit.ly, ms.ft, ama goo.gl) u horseedo.

Marka laga reebo OTP (password hal mar), Microsoft waxa laga yaabaa inay qoraal kuu soo dirto:

1. Ku wargeli^(Inform) inaad si guul leh u soo gashay, haddii ay ka shakido galitaanka aan la oggolayn si aad uga hortagto in akoonkaaga la xado
2. U sheeg^(Tell) in qof uu isku dayayo inuu galo akoonkaaga; tani waxay dhacdaa marka uu jiro farqi weyn oo u dhexeeya koodka aagga; Waxaa jira faa'iidooyin been abuur ah sidoo kale, mararka qaarkood, markaa uma baahnid inaad ka walwasho; haddii aad hesho fariimo la mid ah maalin kasta, la xidhiidh Taageerada Microsoft^{(Microsoft Support)}
3. U sheeg^(Tell) in qof uu isku dayayo inuu galo akoonkaaga isagoo isticmaalaya browser/qalab cusub; mar labaad, waxaa jiri kara waxyaabo been abuur ah, laakiin waxaa fiican in la ogaado in Microsoft ay daryeesho macluumaadkaaga soo gelida oo ay markaas xafiddo xogtaada

Kuwa kore waxay noqon karaan qaar ka mid ah sababaha ay Microsoft qoraal kuugu soo dirayso. Haddii aadan rabin inaad hesho OTP mar kasta oo aad gasho, waxaad isticmaali kartaa Microsoft Authenticator app.

Akhriso^(Read) : Aqoonso oo iska ilaali khiyaamooyinka sida khyaanada leh u isticmaala magaca Microsoft^{(Identify & avoid scams that fraudulently use the Microsoft name)} .

Horaantii, tuugadu waxay haysteen oo keliya kombuyuutarada iyo meelaha la xidhiidha si ay u weeraraan. Marka la isticmaalo taleefannada casriga ah, way fududahay in dadka la khiyaameeyo. Waxaad hadda fariin ka heshay wax sida XX-MSFT oo fariintu waxay ka kooban tahay xiriiriye codsanaya in la gujiyo. Maxaad samayn lahayd haddii ay dhacdo iimaylo haddii aadan hubin inay run tahay? Ma gujin doontid isku xirka iimaylka.

Waxaad gali doontaa akoonkaaga Microsoft oo aad u socon doontaa boggaga lagu sheegay fariinta iimaylka. Haddii bogaggu aysan halkaas ku jirin, waxaad si fudud u tirtirtaa iimaylka halkii aad isku dayi lahayd inaad la xiriirto Microsoft adoo isticmaalaya xiriiriyeyaasha lagu sheegay iimaylka

Isla sidaas oo kale ayaa khuseeysa halkan, haddii ay dhacdo fariimaha qoraalka ah. Asalka fariimaha lama xaqiijin karo sababtoo ah ma jiri doono lambar sax ah laakiin kaliya magac sheegaya ama la xiriira Microsoft . Haddii aysan jirin qaab aad ku xaqiijin karto lambarka ama magaca xiriirka, waligaa ha gujin xiriirinta. Sababtoo ah isku xirka taleefannada casriga ah ayaa la soo gaabin doonaa xiriiriyeyaasha^{(shortened links)} sida goo.gl ama bit.ly. Waxay dhaawac u geystaan ​​qalabkaaga haddii xiriirku noqdo mid been abuur ah.

TALO:^(TIP:) Weligaa ha gujin xiriirinta fariimaha qoraalka ah ee qof kasta haddii aadan garanayn halka ay ku hogaamineyso.

Why is Microsoft texting me? Are they genuine or phishing?

If you receive text messages from Microsoft, they could be genuine, or they could be some kind of phishing attempt. We’ll discuss both in this post about why Microsoft is texting you. With text messaging becoming so popular, scams involving SMS’s had to appear! Smishing is a term coined from Short Message Service (SMS) and Phishing. Let us find out!

Why is Microsoft texting me?

If there is a link in the text message, beware. It could be a phishing attempt as explained in the next section. But if it is numbers or some alphanumeric thing in the text message, it could be a genuine one-time password or something that tries to identify if it is really you trying to log into your Microsoft account.

Accounts that have a two-step-verification setup get text messages containing information that will help you complete the login process. Such messages seldom contain any link. If you see a shortened link in the account verification message, it should take you to a knowledge base article or open the Microsoft support page. Just don’t click on the link without knowing where the link leads to. There are URL expanders that help you see where a shortened link (bit.ly, ms.ft, or goo.gl) leads to.

Besides OTP (one-time password), Microsoft may text you to:

1. Inform you that you logged in successfully, in case it suspects unauthorized logins so that you can prevent your account from being stolen
2. Tell you that someone is trying to log into your account; this happens when there is a significant difference in area codes; there are false positives too, sometimes, so you need not to worry; if you receive similar messages every day, contact Microsoft Support
3. Tell you that someone is trying to log into your account using a new browser/device; again, there can be false positives, but it is better to know that Microsoft is caring for your login information and thereby securing your data

The above could be some reasons why Microsoft is texting you. If you do not wish to receive OTP every time you log in, you may use the Microsoft Authenticator app.

Earlier, the hackers had only the computers and related peripherals to attack. With smartphones, it has become easier to cheat people. You just received a message from something like XX-MSFT and the message contains a link asking to be clicked. What would you do in case of emails if you are not sure if it is genuine? You will not click the link in the email.

You will log into your Microsoft account and navigate to pages mentioned in the email message. If the pages are not there, you simply delete the email instead of trying to reach Microsoft using the links specified in the email

The same applies here, in case of text messages. The origin of the messages cannot be confirmed as there won’t be a valid number but just a name that says or relates to Microsoft. If there is no way you can validate the number or the contact-name, never click any links. Because the links in smartphones will be shortened links like goo.gl or bit.ly. They cause damage to your device if the link turns out to be a fake one.

TIP: Never click any link in any text messages from anyone if you don’t know where it leads you.
