ONLINE: THE DANGERS OF THE INTERNET

A few months ago, my dad's website is hacked. The hacker made up false statements and asked for money from my dad's many clients and acquaintances. Some are tricked into donating millions to the hacker. Remembering this dangerous event, I feel the need to share with others.

INTRODUCTION

The internet is terrific. We can access millions, even billions of websites with a few key words and a click from the mouse. However, it can also become a liability.

How do you know if the article or caption or posts you are reading is true? This is very important. Some people wrote about events that never happened. Some made hoaxes. And now, Cyber-bullying comes online. Cyber-bullies are people that makes up offensive statements, threatens another via the internet and mocks others. Some hacks people's accounts and changes them, for example, status.

CROSS-REFERENCING

It is of the essence to make sure whether the article or posts you are reading is actually true. One way to do that is by cross-referencing. Cross-refencing is to compare one's work with another's. So if you read articles about the same topics and they contradict each other, to make sure you know which is right and which is wrong, read more about it. Do not believe everything written that instant, make sure. After all, posts can be used to make lies about other people.

HATERS

Haters, or so they are called, leaves offensive comments. If you have an article with a hater, it is necessary to delete his/her comment(s) and block him/her out. Haters also spam people, sometimes trying to advertise a product or provocative statements via comments.

HACKERS

Hackers are very dangerous. What makes them so bad is that you may be reading from a hacked website. Hackers can leave advertisements, false pleas for help (using website owner's identity; for example: "Help, my family/relative is very sick, please donate). If you cannot access/edit your website, and it changes without your knowledge, immediately notify the people that uses the website (your clients, family, relative, boss, co-workers, etc) that the website has been hacked and you are not responsible for the changes in it. Quickly ask an expert (IT expert, IT consultants) to help you regain your website.
