Black Friday season is upon us! 🛍️ This week, we’re joined by Simon Miller from Cifas, the UK’s leading fraud prevention service, to unpack the latest online scams. He shares essential tips to help you stay safe online and protect your hard-earned cash while shopping online this holiday season. 💳🔒

In Watchtower Weekly, we dive into why weak passwords are still haunting us in 2025 (yes, even “12345” is alive and well), and what the Louvre Museum can teach us about password hygiene. 🖼️🙈

Then, in Crash Course, we walk you through 1Password autofill for credit and debit cards — how it works, how it keeps your payment info secure, and why it’s a total game-changer at checkout time. ⏱️
