Every day I run across someone who unknowingly has had his or her identity stolen and, like me, has no earthly idea how it could have happened. I am no expert on identity theft, but my article about protecting yourself from identity theft caught the attention of several identity theft protection companies which contacted me and asked if I would be willing to pass on valuable information to my readers on how this theft can possibly occur. Mac Cooper from wifisugar.com, shared this information, and I would like to share it with you.
Mac reports that a huge issue that most people aren’t aware of is hackers stealing your information when you connect your laptop to a public Wi-Fi connection. Evidence of hacking has been found at hotels, cafes and even U.S. airports. Hackers simply set up a laptop on the same Wi-Fi connection and virtually “listen” to your laptop to steal emails, passwords, and banking information.
When you connect your laptop to a Wi-Fi connection, like at a cafe or hotel, the way your computer communicates with the Internet connection is by virtually talking out loud to the router. Any other computer using that same Wi-Fi connection can virtually listen to your computer and find out all of your surfing activity, including your emails, your passwords, and what websites you visit.
The ease of connecting to a public Wi-Fi is convenient, but it has a huge trade-off . . . it is not very secure.
Wifi Sugar protects computer users by encrypting their surfing activity. Basically, it scrambles your Internet data to allow your laptop to talk to the Internet connection in a secret code. Hackers can still listen in, but they cannot understand what your laptop is saying. It works with any laptop and with any Wi-Fi connection, anywhere in the world. In addition, one Wifi Sugar account covers all your computers, and it works with PCs and Macs. It’s complete protection against having your identity stolen on an unsecured Wi-Fi connection.
If you are a person who uses public Wi-Fi connections to do most of your personal computer business, your chances of having your identity stolen DOUBLES or even TRIPLES!
