Beware! Identity
thieves are crawling all over the Internet. Every 3 seconds of the day, some innocent
persons like you fall victim to their schemes. For now, no one is immune so
please pay attention to this information. As the records indicate, the
best-known abuse is theft of your credit card numbers. When it happens, many
customers experience fraudulent charges on their accounts. Credit Card numbers
are obtained in many ways. Sometimes it’s as simple as a small device called a
skimmer that captures the data on your magnetic strip. Restaurant staffers and
retail employees can also use pocket skimmers to duplicate your card info when
the card is out of your sight. Perhaps the biggest use of skimmers is at gas
pumps where they grab your data as you pay at the pump.
As you can see, these
activities are common everyday activities when credits cards are used. While
many consider credit card theft the worst kind of identity theft, it’s really a
low-level type of data theft. Most card issuers cover the fraud at no charge to
customers. At most, your risk is around $50. The real loss to you is the time
it takes to mop up the problem even if the amount of money lost is really
small. Of bigger loss is hacked data which the hackers can deploy to very
devastating use. When they hit your account, they can access your names, dates
of birth, Social Security numbers (SSN), health care ID numbers, home
addresses, email addresses and employment information, including income data.
With this information, the hackers can open new credit accounts, obtain
government documents, and even commit medical identity theft. This is a growing
threat that could use up health benefits or add false, potentially harmful data
to victims’ medical records. Imagine an instance where someone uses your
medical ID to get treatment and has the wrong blood type entered into your
records. In an emergency, this sort of identity theft could be deadly. Can
anything be worse than that?
Another common hack occurs when you willingly visit a malware-riddled
website that could download a key-logger without your knowledge. The next time
you do some online banking; the malware captures your password and sends it to
the hackers. Alternatively, you might open a loaded email that appears legit
but is really seeking to capture data like passwords and other info. These are
often referred to as phishing scams because people are fishing for more of your
personal data. As stated earlier, no one is immune from hackers. Because it is
