Presentation transcript:

 Identity theft: When someone steals another identity, usually to obtain credit or other benefits in that person’s name  Phishing: Attempting to acquire passwords and other info by posing as a trustworthy individual.  Cybercrime: Committing a crime using computers or the internet.  Credit report: A detailed report of a person’s credit history.

 While shopping online, I used a debit card on an unsecure website and my pin was stolen. From then on, the hacker had access to my money, social security number, and other personal information.  My wife ended up leaving me alone with only the dog for company, since she couldn’t deal with our financial crisis.  (Unfortunately, I had to eat the dog)

 Soon, I was extremely stressed out and developed severe anxiety and was unable to continue my job  I had no money left in my bank, and couldn’t find a job because no company would hire me because of the damage to my reputation caused by the hacker.  I spent the rest of my time on the streets, begging, and eventually got arrested on purpose so I could have 3 hots and a cot.

 If you don’t want to end up like me, listen close.  Never give out any personal information to anyone you aren’t absolutely sure is a legitimate businessman.  Shred documents with personal information attached to them.  If you are shopping online, make sure the site is safe.  Issue a stop payment with credit cards and banks if your information is stolen.
