Beware of Phishing

Beware of phishing and Secure your Account

Phishing is the act of attempting to acquire information such as usernames, passwords, and credit card details. some tips which can help you from internet Phishing.
  
1. If Any page ask for Login or ask for credential make sure you are in right website. check website URL before typing e-mail/password."

2. Don't be a part of Social website which is not famous because they can use your information in any illegal way.

3. Do not use unknown software for cleaning your computer because now a days lots of software has key-logger inbuilt in it and they store all your activity

4. Keep Banking password different from any e-mail login or any general password and do not store password on diary or in any notepad"

5. It is my personal suggestion that always keep two debit cards (One private and other for transaction). If you want to transfer money to any online service or want to transfer money to friend/family transfer the exact amount from private account to other account then use other card for any transaction"

I said this because sometimes some sites renew your subscription automatically and even they store your information of card so they can use it any illegal way.

6. Never use third party websites to install any application use original site of manufacturer to install any application"
example: 
for Microsoft   Microsoft.com
for Adobe product  Adobe.com
for Hp  product    Hp.com
for canon canon.com
