FBI Warning

thanks

Used to be someone would send a message to you and when you opened it, poor, down went your computer. However, now one more thing to watch out for is once they get into your system, they copy your address book. Now they start sending messages to people on you address book using your name so you will open it thinking it's from someone on your address book. The hackers are well aware of how many people just don't open messages from someone they don't know so now they just use someone you do know. I've changed my email address several times lately since this just happened to a few people I know. They warned me that someone was sending messages using their names so I deleted anything from them until I changed my email address.
I too don't use on line banking or bill payments of any kind where a Bank's account number is required. However, my safest method of all was when I had my two computers built, rather than a store purchase, I had two separate hard drives installed. NO, not one with particians, two separate ones. The primary used for access to the internet is just that. Any pertenant info is on the second one which is a storage drive and not accessable by the other one. Really easy to have done and a real safe item.

I use Linux. No revolving doors.
