online scams and schemes

I learned that you can never trust the internet and that there are people out there that just want to screw people over and take their money and the succeed at doing it because people are not educated on this as much as they should. The biggest way for people to get your info is by you being tricked to giving it to them. You need to be more aware of the criminals making fake websites and you going out there and buying stuff online off fake web sights. The biggest pieces of information you can give a criminal is your social security number and your name and thats all they need to steal everything you have and take your life away. My grandma got her debit card number stolen from someone online and they bought a bunch of clothing with it and my grandma almost didn't notice. The criminals like to target older people because they figure that no one pays attention to them and they will be to old to notice that they are losing their money.
