Just the other day I had a friend get hacked on social media. Once she was hacked it seemed to escalade like a bolder roller down a hill faster and faster across several of her friends getting hacked. I'm sure the reasoning behind someone hacking into another persons acccount is different depending on what their end goal is, but it's something that drives me crazy. I don't get it.
Social media is one thing to worry about, but how secure is your online pay stubs? Having someone hack your online presence and gaining access to your personal information can not only put you in a panic, but could possibly put you in a sticky financial situation.
Having my friend get hacked and watching the havoc it caused, made me double think the security of my variety of account. When doing anything online, especially anything finance related, I HIGHLY recommend you make sure the site is secure and, of course, make sure your passwords are top notch difficult.
