What do craigslist and Take9 have in common? The answer might surprise you…

Here’s Craig to answer the Internet’s burning questions!

Reality check: no one is sending a prize to your company email.

This one goes out to everyone who’s failed a phishing test. We see you, and we’re here to help. Protect your pride...

When AI works harder, you need to work smarter. 🔎

A new report from @kb4people found that scammers use AI now more than ever, including creating calendar invite scams, impersonating people you know, and stealing your login credentials.

Stay one step ahead with these habits:

💡Verify the source of any unusual requests
💡Use MFA, passkeys or password managers for all accounts
💡Limit the personal info you share publicly

🎁 That “Winner!” text might look like your lucky break, but it’s probably a trap.

Spot the red flags:
🚩You didn’t enter a contest, but “won” anyway.
🚩They use urgent language designed to make you act without thinking.
🚩You’re asked to send a deposit or input personal information to claim it.

The secret to a real win? The pause. ✋Take9, then report and block the number.

🤯 A text message almost cost Devon $1,000.

Scams like this happen to the best of us. We're sharing her story for #ScamSurvivorDay to show you're not alone.

If your “boss” sends an urgent request for money: Stop, Take 9, and verify via a trusted channel first.

You don’t have to be a math whiz to avoid online frauds and scams!

In fact, all you need to do is count to 9️⃣. Next time you come across a link, pause and look for anything suspicious before clicking.

In the era of generative AI, it's easy for people to spoof your identity to someone else for the wrong reasons.

Amira, Take9’s very own cybersecurity expert, explains why setting up a code word with your loved ones will help keep you safe online. ✅

Today is World Password Day! To level up your password game:

🔑 Switch to passkeys. By using biometrics (like a fingerprint or face scan) to log you in, your accounts become virtually “un-phishable.”

🔑 Use passwords that are long (at least 16 characters) and different for each of your accounts.

🔑 Try out a password manager. They securely store your passwords so you don’t have to remember them.

A full house, a live taping, and a conversation that stayed with us.

At The 92nd Street Y, New York, Tyler Cowen sat down with Craig Newmark for Conversations with Tyler to explore a question that feels more urgent by the day: how do we build and sustain trust in a digital world.

Newmark’s perspective is grounded in restraint and consistency. From the early days of Craigslist to his work in cybersecurity, journalism, and civic life, the through line is clear: focus on what works, support people doing the work, and design systems that serve users first.

In this clip, we are sharing a moment from the conversation focused on cybersecurity, where Newmark reflects on the creation of Take9 and the role it can play in strengthening safer online practices.

What stays with you is not just the conversation, but the clarity behind it. Trust is not built through scale or complexity. It is earned through reliability, accountability, and a commitment to getting the fundamentals right over time.

Watch the full episode now on Conversations with Tyler.

🧠 Mindset shift: security means less hassle, not more.

Three tools that will do the heavy lifting for you:

1️⃣ Password Managers: Create and store unique, complex passwords so you don’t have to memorize them
2️⃣ Passkeys: Replace traditional passwords with your biometric data or a code for faster, phishing-proof logins
3️⃣ Multifactor Authentication (MFA): Adds a critical layer of defense that keeps hackers out, even if they manage to steal your password

Cyber threats are everywhere and getting more sophisticated every day. That’s why we’re proud to partner with @PauseTake9.

Before you click, download, or share… take 9 seconds.

For military families, staying connected online is part of everyday life especially during deployments. That can also make them a target.

A quick pause can help protect you and the people you care about.

Simple habit. Real impact.
