- Keep your account passwords private. Remember, anybody who knows your password may access your account.
- When creating a password, use at least 6 characters. A combination of letters and numbers is best. Do not use dictionary words, your name, email address, or other personal data that can be easily obtained. We also recommend that you frequently change your password. You can do this by going to ‘My Account’ and clicking ‘Change Password’.
- Avoid using the same password for multiple online accounts.
We will never ask you to confirm any account or credit card details via email. If you receive an email claiming to be from jamesst.com.au asking you to do so, please ignore it and do not respond.
