Computer fraud

Nowadays we are dealing with a quite big problem - computer fraud. The online criminals of today are skilled computer experts who know how to manipulate other's computer into giving them the information they need for committing some kind of crime. They steal information and most of people even do not know what happened.
Computer fraud can include: “hoaxes”, various scams, fake or misleading sites, e-mails offering riches, and offers for non-existent or poor quality products for sale. Online fraud comes in many different forms. Some of the most common ways are through spyware, viruses, Trojans and worms that get installed on computer in most cases without owner knowledge. The online criminals can even get other people credit card numbers and steal all their money. The most dangerous thing that can happen is that they can use the information of others and in this way to steal someone identity. So these criminals can live the lives of other people. Usually they do this for a few month.
Anyone who uses the Internet is a potential candidate for being a victim of computer crime. That is why all users have to find out the best defence against computer fraud. First of all, people have to be careful about giving out valuable personal data online. Especially then people get e-mail message from unknown people who ask for credit card numbers or Social Security numbers. Secondly, people have to remember that not everything what appears on the Internet is true, no matter how impressive or professional the Web site looks. Thirdly, people have to be careful buying goods or services on the Internet because sometimes people are screwed. It happens because they pay money before they receive the goods or services they have been promised. So people should find more information about the companies from who they buy something before submitting payments.
To sum up, computer fraud is getting more and more a topical problem. So people should start being more careful using the Internet otherwise there will be too difficult to control this problem.
