You get a text message from a vendor who asks you to click on a link to renew your password so that you can log in to its website. You should:

Pick up the phone and call the vendor, using a phone number you know to be correct, to confirm that the request is real.

Reply to the text to confirm that you really need to renew your password.

Click on the link. If it takes you to the vendor's website, then you'll know it's snot a scam.
