Keep your Ukash safe! Only Combine, Split or Convert your vouchers using Ukash Tools and never email your 19-digit Ukash number.

When spending Ukash only enter your voucher number at a secure site. Look for the 'padlock' icon on the screen and check that the website address begins https. If you're not sure if a website is genuine contact Ukash Customer Services before entering your voucher number or check the 'Where to Spend' section of the Ukash website.


DO NOT provide any Ukash voucher numbers or personal details at these known 'phishing' sites:

auctions-ukash.com
ukash-auction.uk.com
ukash-auctions.com
ukashauction.net
ukashauctions.net
ukash-auction.co.uk
uk-ids.com
uk-ids.net
ukash.com.br

Report a Fraudulent Site

If you believe a site is fraudulent email Ukash and we will investigate.


Money exchange sites

Beware of sites offering to exchange Ukash. If you choose to get Ukash in exchange for any other form of payment it is at your risk. Ukash cannot guarantee that vouchers obtained from unofficial exchange sites are genuine. Only get Ukash from official Ukash issuing partners. Check the 'Where to Get' section to see official Ukash issuers.


Ebay

Ukash is not currently accepted as payment at eBay; do not give out Ukash voucher details to any eBay sellers.


Simple Steps to Keep your Ukash Safe

Never email your 19-digit Ukash number and value to anyone. Ukash Customer Services will only ever ask you for the last 6 digits of your Ukash number when resolving a query.

Only Combine, Split or Convert your Ukash vouchers using the Toolkit

The only genuine Ukash websites are:

www.ukash.com
www.ukash.es
www.ukash.co.uk
www.ukash.de
www,ukash.co.za
www.ukashneo.com
www.ukashair.com

Never be tempted to provide Ukash voucher details or personal details at any other sites.


General Tips on Staying Safe Online

Secure Site

You should only ever carry out confidential transactions over secure internet connections.

There are two ways you can see if you have a secure connection:

1 The first few characters of the web address in your address bar will change to https - the 's' stands for secure.

2 You'll see a little padlock icon, in the locked position, appear in the top or bottom right-hand corner of your screen.

'Phishing' Emails

Don't be fooled; emails and websites might not be what they seem. You may receive emails or be directed to websites that ask you to enter your personal information. The aim of many of these email scams is to take you to websites that may look genuine but are set up to collect personal or financial information.

If you receive an email that asks for your personal information, do not click on any link or provide any details; a genuine company will not ask for these details by email.

Protect your computer

Install anti-virus, anti-spyware and firewall software on your computer and keep it up to date.

Never open email attachments if you don't know who they're from
