Email scams and security

Two interesting pieces from PC Magazine's security e-newsletter. Both deal with $$ scams so I think they fit in this blog, so spread the word.

  1. Ransomeware - what is it? Read the article and find out.
  2. The Nigerian Prisoner - Do you know someone held in a Nigerian Jail? Maybe, maybe not. One has to think that if anybody hears the phrase "Nigerian" and "email" in the same sentence they would be wary, but I guess enough people still fall for them.
