Password management is very important today. Do not keep it simple, mix it up with special characters and numbers.

All of my emails and instant messenger programs have been hacked into and even my local newspaper stopped arriving at my doorstep. When I contacted the paper they somehow had my old phone number. It has become a serious issue and I was wondering if anyone could offer advice? My bank (Chase) refused to close my account because there were pending charges (which were all fraudulent) I am now researching hacking and am stunned by what Im finding. Go to walmart.com and type "security" in the search engine. First hit? Norton or Mcafee? No, a book on how to hack and steal identities. Type hacking into youtube and you find videos on how to operate Cain and Abel (a hacking program) It's so easy it's scary! So NOW what do I do now that I've already lost my money and identity??? Any ideas? Thanks!!! I have been targeted and have had $7500 stolen in less than 2 months.

People place too much information online especially on Facebook where a recent study just came out that shows 40% of people put enough information in their profiles for someone to be able to at least steal partial identity. This becomes a problem when these people use these things at mom and pop quick loan stores where they might not take all of the information they need or other services that don't require SS numbers. Identity theft is a scary thing but can be prevented with some common sense measures. I would say he means virtual identity theft in the comment above as getting your identity stolen online?
