Topic Reading-Vol.1638-10/5/2016

Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Chinese cyber spies may be watching you, experts warn
Don’t open an attachment, unless you’re sure that is sent by someone you know AND that is in fact sent by the person. Nowadays, cyber criminals and attackers can pretend themselves as one of your acquaintances. Once you open a malicious attachment, your PC is under someone else’s control. Don’t simply assume you have nothing to lose or there is no critical information in your files. The attacker could use your PC as a tool to do harmful acts to others or criminal acts.
Who are behind such cybercrimes? Well, that could be anyone from anywhere. But the US agencies and security experts suspect that many of such accesses and attempts are backed by its archrival.
There was the Cold War in the previous century. Now, it seems that a cyber war is underway.
Enjoy reading and thinking if your PC or tablet has sufficient security protection.
