Do QR Codes carry any security risk?

QR codes can carry security risks if they are not used properly. One risk is that malicious actors can create fake QR codes that, when scanned, lead the user to a fraudulent website or download malware onto the user’s device. It is important for users to be cautious when scanning QR codes and to only scan codes from trusted sources. Users should also be sure to have up-to-date security software installed on their devices to help protect against these types of threats.
