How sad that people take advantage of the holiday season… when people are stressed, excited, stressed, generous, stressed, shopping, happy, and did we mention Stressed? This is a good time for Cybercriminals to strike – there are more people trying shopping online, more people out there looking for “deals”. Take note and make sure that you protect yourself. Also share this information with family and friends, especially if you know someone who is Not a “tech” person but who is now trying things out online. Also make sure to talk to friends and family who may be getting New technology as gifts during the holidays.
