11 ways to keep your emails safe from hackers

Emails are the most common thing vulnerable to spying.

Never check your e-mail on an unsafe network, as a computer

in an internet cafe, library or any other business. It may be

infected with malware to steal your passwords.

Log off from your e-mails as soon as

their work is over. By staying signed up, a

hacker can gain immediate access.

Email Login Name and password should

not be repeated.

Delete your old-emails properly, which could contain addresses,

account usernames and passwords, contact information for all your pals, financial data

and may other sensitive information.

If an email comes to you that promises a loan or credit card that is worth a guaranteed amount of

money at a low interest rate, beware that it is a scam, as

nobody will give you credit without checking your credit report.

Do not click on seemingly ambiguous emails from your pals, as they could be vectors of attack. Cyber criminals often pose as pals stuck a problem and in need of an

immediate wire transfer.

If you get a mail from your bank or credit card company asking to verify your account information beware that it can be from cyber

criminals, don't use email for communication, and definitely not to confirm personal information.

Many scams involve sending money to people that you have never met. There are

Cyber Criminals with the hot investment tip or the foreign company, which needs you to cash a check or process

transactions. Beware.

Do not fall for the trick that makes you think that your credit card has been stolen.

There are also cyber criminals who sent emails requesting

donations for relief efforts.

Do not click on emails that show too good to

be true deals.
