The Secret to Cybersecurity closes that knowledge gap by using real-life examples to educate readers. It’s 2 a.m.—do you know who your child is online with? According to author Scott Augenbaum, between 80 to 90 percent of students say they do whatever they want on their smartphones—and their parents don’t have a clue. Is that you?

In 2018, there were data breaches at several major companies—If those companies have your credit or debit information, that affects you. There are bad people in the world, and they are on the internet. They want to hurt you. They are based all over the world, so they’re hard at “work” when even you’re sleeping.

Unveiling Fraudsters and Cyber Criminals Tactics and Operations by Mary Eckholdt Pdf

Fraudsters, scammers, and cybercriminals are a harsh reality in today's world, and the most effective way to safeguard ourselves is by taking a proactive approach. This book, along with the entire "Fraud and Identity Theft Collection," aims to educate and empower readers to avoid becoming victims of scams or identity theft. These criminals are constantly adapting and refining their methods, making it a constant battle for individuals, corporations, and law enforcement to stay one step ahead. By gaining a deeper understanding of their tactics, and techniques, we can better protect ourselves against their latest schemes. Scammers attempt to build a relationship with an individual so you will not question their motivations. They often use social media to learn as much as possible about their prey’s personal and professional lives. For example, they may learn that you are single, like to travel, have two children, etc., and then use that information for a sales pitch or to con you out of money. They may also use methods to gain your trust, appear as credible and claim to be employed by a legitimate business but they are using a phony website, phone number, and business cards to prove the business is real. It is extremely easy to set up a phony website, unregistered cell phone with any area code, and automatic dialing services. They can be so convincing, play on one’s emotions, and encourage quick decisions before one has time to think through a decision.
