today’s world, technology has become one of the most common gizmo for
communication and storing data online, but is our data really source on internet
in “Scam hijacks Google Chrome browser, tries to get your personal data” by
Brooke Crothers in Foxnews he talks about scams that hijack google chrome. It starts with
a fake dialog box which shows an error afterwards when you take an action
against it. It triggers unresponsive reaction on computer, which cause operating
system to become unstable.
After
malicious code takes over your computer, it pops up a dialog box for fake warning
to trick user to fall for it, and make you take to someone who pretends to be
working with company and trying to help you. If they convince you to give them
your passwords and even your finical information. Hijacker rob you and you give
them all information without even knowing it in latterly words its called cyber-crime. For intense, if these hijackers got successful in taking down one of
government computer they can take out government documents and publish them in
public. Recently a hacker from Panama was successful to take down a lot of foreigner
countries document which created chaos across those countries.
I
would suggest reading this article to know more about scams and how they work
to protect yourself and your information.
