Education is important to increase awareness of email phishing scams
February 10th, 2008
Whilst the internet has brought many positive developments to peoples lives such as increasing awareness and providing a platform for research there are still some basic problems such as email phishing scams that continue to perpetuate. Just as the police in an orderly society try to prevent crime and bring those responsible to justice, individuals who engage in phishing may get caught. There is, however, another group waiting around the corner that pick up where the last scammer left off. The best thing to protect against this is to have superior defense through education and computer system protection. Get your hands on a spyware and virus protection program and make sure that the option to protect your email is switched on.
