Spring is in the air, and the euphoria can have us all in a state of anticipation of brighter days, warmer weather and holidays. Let us not, however, let current affairs, such as the General Election and fuel tax hikes distract us from the all-important issue of keeping our domains, control panels and websites secure from misuse. You business and projects do, after all, rely heavily on them.
Spam is one thing. It’s annoying to get email messages that are nothing but blatant attempts to sell you something. But other than using up your bandwidth, they don’t really cause you any harm. Email scams are quite another thing. They aren’t trying to sell you something; they’re trying to steal something from you, con you out of or into something, or just scare you.
Email scams have been with us since the Internet went commercial back in the early 1990s. Many of us remember getting those "African 419" scam messages back then. And believe it or not, they’re still around. But scammers have gotten more sophisticated, and some of the more recent email scams are harder to detect — unless you know what you’re looking for.
