    How often are you actually changing your passwords and do you really know what makes them secure? Most security experts recommend updating passwords every 90 days but honestly having a super strong password with two-factor authentication might be more important than constantly changing weak...

    Yeah Dogecoin's been crazy these past few days.. I watch the big memecoins but don't mess around with them too much. They're entertaining but you never know what'll happen.. someone posts something online and boom prices go nuts.

    Identity Theft Protection - Yes or No?

    I've thought about it for sure especially with all these data breaches happening everywhere. Good thing is it gives you peace of mind and helps clean up messes if stuff goes wrong. Bad thing is it costs money every month and doesn't really prevent much.. just tells you after someone already...

    Story About a Stolen Paycheck of $114,000

    Preventing Email Spam

    I usually rely on the built-in spam filters and regularly mark unwanted emails as spam to train the system. I'll unsubscribe from real companies but never click unsubscribe on obvious scam emails. Gmail and Outlook definitely seem way better at blocking spam than the cheaper email services.

    My Experience with Phone Fraud

    No.. I haven't experienced that specific scam but it sounds really scary how convincing they were. They probably got your info from data breaches, public records, or even bought it from other scammers. . These criminals are getting more sophisticated, but at least you caught it in time.
