This from Cnet.com:
2006 was a good year for bad people. The Washington Post is quoting Internet security experts who say this past year saw more and worse online spam and sophisticaed cyber-attacks.
But wait, there’s more good news. 2007 will not be any better, the pros predict. And perhaps the sourest note of all: there’s so much money being bilked via cybercrime, the crooks now work 9 to 5. Not nights and weekends as in the old days. They have their day job and it’s stealing from you and me.
I have noticed a huge effort from cyber crooks to get my own information. I get emails from “banks” I don’t even have an account at daily asking me to go to their site to check my personal information for security reasons. I find it interesting I get these request when I don’t even have an account with them.
We should all be careful of such scams and at the same time, we should warn our business clients of the same.
