Top 10 Tips to Avoid Identity Theft, Internet & Email Scams This Holiday Shopping Season: CyberDefender Corporation Arms
Criminals around the world are stealing credit card information, bank account passwords and other sensitive or personal information in greater numbers than ever before. Chances are they are utilizing tools easily found on the Web that allows them to spy on the surfing habits of hundreds of thousands of unsuspecting consumers. Antivirus and security software, like that offered by CyberDefender Corporation, can help lower the risks of Internet identity theft exponentially. However, other scams, such as e-mail “phishing,” the random attempt to obtain account numbers and passwords by criminals masquerading as legitimate businesses, are more difficult to protect against and requires good judgment by the consumer. With Web merchants predicted to ring up sales worth $24.3 billion during the upcoming holiday season, according to eMarketer, a 22.1 percent growth over last year, it is clear that more and more consumers are turning to the Internet to do their shopping. While the Internet may help consumers shop faster and easier, it can also pose dangerous potential for consumers who aren’t careful.
