Also what is this rock you breach? Where do I go to find out if my password is leaked? I have 300 passwords with 300 different accounts. Does Komo mean that I should change 300 passwords today? And take 5-19 hours to do it?
Yeah, that info is missing but easy enough to search. It's "credentials obtained from a data breach on one service are used to attempt to log in to another unrelated service." It only works if you use the same usernames/passwords for all online accounts.
@@buzz5969 It's safer because credit card companies will almost always take the hit on your behalf. Its a lot harder to reverse bank transactions and you are out your funds until its rectified.
@@buzz5969no financial protection if debit cards are fraudulently used as it is tied to your cash. You’d have a hard time getting the bank to refill your checking account. Credit cards operate on a credit system and not a cash system so banks can simply cancel the transactions and you don’t owe the bank any money for the fraudulent transactions.
I order almost everything online, but I DONT leave any cards active in my accounts. I add them do my orders then immediately delete them. Cant charge to an account that has no chargeable cards.😊
It's ok if you leave a said prepaid card on the account that is empty and delete the card like the dude said that you actually have money on, the issue with his strategy is the scammers also obtained the email password @@ChintanCG
Won't some hacker simply hack into a password manager app and then have access to all passwords for an individual? Why would a password manager be considered secure when it has so much vulnerability of having all passwords in one place?
If you don't hook your password manager to your browser or any application, it is reduces the possibly of getting hacked through the web to the manager: meaning everytime you need a user id and password, you have to manually populate the fields. If you get a good password manager, it will have a feature that deletes your clipboard after a few seconds, so that you don't have to manually. I would also avoid any password managers that require a online login (cloud type) for syncing purposes.
Credential stuffing is password reuse, where these folks used the same password on different accounts and websites, because it is easier. Don’t do this. Use a password manager to create and store long complex passwords for each website and bank accounts. And use 2FA (two factor authentication) with an app on your cellphone like Authy or Google authenticator.
@@johnp139 that is what your bank tells you to do, then you do not worry about a breach or hack. Trust me I have viewed all kinds of information of others viewed online by accident
Somehow my wife had her account attached to another person and we started getting crazy purchases but they were actually coming to our address. They ended up reimbursing us but it was a major pain to deal with. Now I’m scared every time I check the bank
Amazon suggests re-entering card for payment? Why? I removed mine from my Amazon account. No reason to keep it saved there so criminals can shop using my card.
Passwords aren't inherently weak. Implementation by the web service is. Blows my mind multi-billion dollar companies still can't get routine authentication right.
you can spend a trillion or quadrillion on technology... idiots will still fall for a simple social engineering trick. Sure in the case of rockyou2024 it has nothing to do with tricking users.
Had the same thing happen to me only the people tried to order computer and I'm broke and don't have money so they couldn't do anything in Amazon caught on to it
This is a good idea. Now I have to learn how to encrypt a flash drive. Also, what kind of text file would be good to use? MS Word, .txt? I'm thinking a pdf file wouldn't be good since a web browser can be used to read it.
Then.... they advise you to give all your new passwords to a "Data Manager", hello.....you're still giving your information to someone else! Don't so it! Just be old fashioned, change all your passwords, make them tough, and write them down on a piece of paper and stick it in your wallet! Or better yet, your BIBLE! No one will ever find it there.😂
There was an Outer Limits episode from back in the 90s that was about that, although I can't remember if hacking was involved, but there was some sort of problem with the chip-- and just about everyone had one.
Already got my alert, thankfully NONE of my passwords re text only. I use numbers, letters, and characters. My husband and I also use numbers or letters switched. Like 8 for a B or E for the number 3. Remember just be creative.
Those emails may not be legit. They might be part of a scam. Make sure you aren't responding to them - instead, check your paypal account or directly with your bank to see if there have been any fraudulent charges made.
A PASSWORD MANAGER? Isn't that a program from a third party that stores your passwords online for you, so that hackers can access all your passwords in one place, and sell them for profit?
I called amazon just to ask a question. The guy says you need to start an account & put in your payment method; I'll hold while you do that. I hung up. I've never done business with amazon, and never will.
These for those people , who just buy everything online. & put their details here their even QR scanning is a bug scam too. Soo just take care, & buy wat is necessary.
@@fdavidmiller2 Yes, but it's a lot more cost effective to buy in advance whenever possible. And for me, it's too long of a drive to the nearest major airport to make a trip just to get tickets. So yeah, maybe "can't" was a little oversimplification, but it's basically true.
Best Sassy Realistic Advice, stop shopping online and start shopping in person., Furthermore, I guess the saying is true, although online shopping tends to be very affordable aka cheap at the end, it becomes a costly financial loss experience.,
I never keep any payment information on any site. I always keep my cards locked as well as my credit cards. Paying for password encryption is worth the money.
Can’t get hacked if you go to an actual store and buy it with cash. You’ll receive it faster then next day shipping too. Heaven forbid you use your legs tho.
If there is a store that sells the product you want, that is. That won't always be the case. And some things you can't buy from a store (e.g. airline tickets). Besides, cash is not always perfect. You can be mugged. You can also fall victim to phony credit card readers at ATMs. (Look up "card skimmers" to learn about this)
