Tip #15 – Your E-Mail is Public
Don’t send any vital or private information via e-mail. Keep in mind that unlike Web sites, e-mail is never secure.
Tip #16 – Agree on an Office Distress Code
Create a voice distress code, a secret word or phrase that is not commonly used but can be worked into any conversation for cases where you feel that you are in danger. Use this if the person you are with can overhear the conversation, but you don’t want to alarm them. Example: “Hi, this is Jennifer. I’m with Mr. Henderson at the Elm Street listing. Could you e-mail me the RED FILE?”
