The Need To Prevent Phishing

January 29th, 2008 | by admin |

I am Laura and I live in New Jersey. Though I am quite aware of the need to prevent phishing, I really carried away when I received convincing e-mails with some interesting and affordable offers. My greed got the better of me and without thinking; I gave the person my bank details for the transaction promised.

When I did not hear from the person for some time after that, I panicked and decided to warn my bank about this. Thank goodness, I suspected fraud soon enough. I saved my savings realizing my blunder. I have been advising all my friends and acquaintances to be very careful and aware of such mails.
