Technology does a lot to make our life easier. But unfortunately, with new developments in technology also come new threats and new potential risks.
Criminals are getting better and better at leveraging our desire to keep up with the latest tech to access sensitive information like credit cards, bank accounts info and more. The key to protecting yourself and your assets is to take precautionary measures and stay up to date with latest scams used by criminals.
