The above clip is posted at youtube. It talks about the rise of online fraud. It mentions the money lost due to online fraud is 59 millions! It also rings a bell that even a small detail about a person can cause he or she a target victim.Job scam is on the list of the most popular scams. Everyone is asked to send resume by email. I do it myself too. But it can lead to a fraud. Not only the personal identification , but also a piece of information about a person's interest can start a fraud. The clip warns that you should not click in any link online unless you know what it is.

That’s true. We should not click in any link online when you don’t know what it is. I got a lot of advertise from my friends email. I asked them why they sent advertise to me, they said they never sent it. I think my friends got virus, if I chick any link in their mail, I would be got virus too, the result is very serious, it can lead someone to steal information in my computer. So we must be careful some website in the network.
ReplyDeleteYes. Resume scam is terrible. You know we have provide personal information on our resumes. Sometimes it goes to somewhere we don't know. That would be a great potential threat to us. Sometimes I got this kind of scam mails. What I thought about was: where did they get my home address? from my resume? from my bill? ....
