Below are some preventative tactics for avoiding bad public Wi-Fi hotspots in general.
Most public Wi-Fi hotspots in the US don’t require payment information so that’s a red flag that a hacker might be trying to steal personal and financial information from you.
Regardless of how it is named, most closed networks have a lock symbol indicating a Wi-Fi network that is more secure with the password available for patrons or provided by the establishment.
Usually, legitimate public networks have a prompt that shows up in your browser that asks you to agree to terms and conditions of use while on their network.
Pay attention to the website address you’re going to. Most websites, especially those with sensitive data, usually employ encryption techniques so they will have HTTPS in the web address.
Pay attention to the spelling of the website. Could be ‘bannkofamerica’ instead of ‘bankofamerica.com’
