Legal noticeHow our articles are written
These rules apply to every guide article.
Primary sources
We rely on police, consumer advice centres, BaFin, the BSI, the Federal Network Agency and legal texts. Every source is listed with its retrieval date at the end of the article.
Quotations
A quotation is checked against the original page before it is published.
Our own figures
Figures from our own data state the cut-off date and how they were counted.
Examples without real websites
Examples in the text use domains ending in .example. That way an article never names a real website as an example of fraud.
Updated
The label Updated only appears on articles whose content has been revised.
Use of AI
Research and first drafts are produced with the help of AI. Every statement is checked against the original source before publication.
