Computer Crime Threats During The Holidays

If you ever receive Christmas e-cards (electronic greeting cards) then be certain that you know where it is coming from. Sometimes it is hard to tell whether or not these are from friendly sources.

Kathy Tyson, a real estate agent from Tennessee, had 3 e-cards waiting in her inbox shortly after Thanksgiving. These cards, however, were not from friends that she knew.

"By the time I got the second one, it was pretty clear that these were just spam," Kathy mentioned. "I can't prove that they were sent by bad people, but they definitely weren't friendly sources. I just deleted them."

If you ever come across a scenario similar to this one, then be sure to just delete the electronic greeting cards. E-cards can potentially infect your computer with viruses and cause you a lot of stress. These electronic threats are nothing new, but they have become more common in recent years and computer crime is always an issue that should be taken seriously.

The best way to protect yourself is to always have anti-virus protection software on your computer, only accept e-mail's from people that you know, and scan e-mail messages for viruses if your mail client allows it.
