Keeping Your Cell Phone Safe from Security Threats!

I was reading an email sent to us from Keller Williams corporate regarding Phishing Scams and thought that I should share this information.  According to the email:

To avoid phishing scams:

• Never reply to email asking for personal information
• Only divulge personal information when you initiate the service call
• If you receive a request to wire money, pick up the phone and talk with someone to validate
• When in doubt, do not click a link (Open a separate web browser and log directly into your official account - not via a link)
• Download some smartphone apps to keep mobile transactions safe

The email also contained a link to those particular smartphone apps as follows:
