This is just a quick blogging tips to all my readers and visitors. Some security tips while we are searching for a treasure in the internet. This can help you to avoid loosing money you hard earned with your sweat. We are here to earn money not loosing it. Ensuring everything in place while surfing the net and finding the gold with security is the key.

• Install anti-virus, adware and malware remover. This will make your surfing safer. Though not all can be catch by this antivirus, better be safe on any site that you think will cause harm to your computer.
• Paypal Chain Letter. Normally you will receive email like this telling you to send paypal money to 6 email address in the mail. And send also the mail to your friends. Don’t fall for this. You will just waste your money trying to send to someone you don’t know.
• Old Style Nigerian Scam. An old Nigerian scam letter that someone died and left an amount of money for you. You don’t even know the person died, so how he/she will give you or left you a huge sum of money? They will just ask you to send money for processing and left you broke.
• Sweepstakes or Lotto Emails. Another form like above about Nigerian Scam. You have one a huge sum using a lottery with your email address attached. Just delete the mail.]
• Phishing emails. These emails normally includes sites that you are familiar with or are popular in a sense that might compromise your login details, bank details and other important personal information like your credit cards. It appear the link embedded on the link is coming from this legit sites but if you hover you mouse on the link(don’t click) you will in the status bar at the lower left that it is not the actual site. You will then be brought to a site that looks like similar to the site the email is mentioning. Don’t click that link. Better go directly to the site by placing it to your browser address bar.
• Text Messaging or SMS Scam. This is also another way to fool you out. Though not much related to net surfing but better be careful and knowledgeable than being sorry at the end. Don’t be send any money that you don’t know. They will just ask for money supposedly for processing (same as above) and will run away with your money. There are instances that you might believe when the number of the mobile phone is coming from your friend but double check it first if it is really coming from your friend. The mobile phone he/she is using might be stolen and using every contacts stored on it to scam people.
• If you own a site don’t make all files writable by the public. If the script (if you are using one) doesn’t require the files to be writable don’t make it writable. It does make sense, you will loose every single page and information from your site including your mails that can be used for another kind of phishing attack.
• Don’t use the same passwords on all sites that you are visiting that requires you to have an account. Use some tools where you can store those passwords.
• Stolen credit cards are rampant. Be sure to keep it safe and check the sites security before purchasing anything from them. And don’t give those CC information to anyone where you are not sure nor know the person you are dealing with.
