- According to the United Nation's World Population Prospects report for 2011, there are more than 2 billion Internet users worldwide, with approximately half of this coming from China, the United States, Japan, India, and Brazil (in order). With this figure, expect at least 1 percent can become victims of spams and phishing attacks. Although this is a diminutive percentage, it can still turn in sums of money from the victims - millions of dollars. It's really true that there’s always someone who will buy whatever spammers are selling. This a sad truth we should learn to accept. February 6, 2012
- Unsubscribing is a double edged sword. For reputable websites, magazines and online communities, I usually click the "unsubscribe" button or link when it is presented as an option. Usually, I take note of all websites I register or subscribe into - so that if in case I decide to unsubscribe later it is easier for me to do so. Typically, I put my list of websites to the same file as my list of usernames with their corresponding passwords. On the other hand, on emails and websites that seem suspicious (websites with too many links, sex-related, pharmacy, etc) I usually just marked them as spams and report to proper authorities. I never click their "unsubscribe" buttons. February 6, 2012
- Gameover - ironic but still deserves to be mentioned as one of the most devastating security threats this year. But I pity those who fall victim to Gameover because they never learn. I mean, this kind of scam has been around the World Wide Web for quite some time now. It has the same technique, process and portal just like its predecessors. It is and has nothing new to show to its victims. February 6, 2012
- That last suggestion is a curious one, but one that definitely needs to be brought up. When people realize how big of a problem is, and are truly inconvenienced by something, then they start to take active steps to eradicate the problem. Once a person gets their inbox hijacked or is completely inundated with spam, they really start to think about what needs to be done in order to care of the problem once and for all. February 5, 2012
- Most of these ideas are good, but one needs a whole time email address. I use Google which has a pretty good spam filter and uses the https protocol, so is more secure. And I use Ubuntu as my OS, which is musch safer than any Windows malware. February 2, 2012
