Don’t use Internet banking, unless...
Without adequate protection on your computer you could be robbed, and when you find out - it will be too late.
Every week we seem to hear of new scams being inflicted on unsuspecting Internet users. Increasingly common are "phishing" expeditions where people attempt to steal your bank account, credit card and other personal details by purporting to be someone who they are not. Often these come as emails that look like they are from a legitimate source - such as your bank. And requesting you confirm personal details such as user names, account numbers, passwords, etc.
An amazingly high 30% of American consumers have experienced online identity theft - according to one of the IT industry's leading consultants, Gartner Inc.
Also, on the rise is "spyware" which has usually been unknowingly downloaded by a user when searching various sites on the Internet. This spyware software lies dormant on your computer until you access your online banking site, at which time it remembers your keystrokes - ie. your user name, account number, password - and then sends them back to the person who intends stealing from you.
In either case, the net result is that your funds are completely at risk and are often stolen without you even knowing that you have become a victim until days later.
But, TechOnline has a solution that can stop these scams in their tracks.
And it's all included in TechOnline's PC*Ensure package.
It's called identity protection. With identity protection you can protect your personal details such as credit card and bank account details, drivers licence, tax file numbers, etc. from ever leaving your computer without you specifically allowing it.
If any of your registered personal details is about to be sent from your computer, you will receive an ALERT on your screen. You will have the choice of denying the transfer of information, and the details will not be sent from your computer.
So don't delay. Sign-up to TechOnline's service and keep your personal details - personal.
