Nowadays, as we can see, everything has become online and everything has become much easier than before and the work which used to take days earlier can be done in a few minutes and this is the advantage of technology or should I say this is advancement, we keep doing things like this and I think as long as we are alive, we don't know what else we will have to see and what new technologies we will get the opportunity to see, we will know this only in the future. As technology is increasing, scammers are also increasing and they also come up with new techniques every time, as soon as we come to know about old technology, they make some improvements in it and come up with some new things and so many scams happen daily, probably many of them may not even be reports, out of all the reports, very few are such from where recovery is possible and most of the time it is the mistake of the person himself because without his permission or his permission, it becomes a bit difficult to access anything.
However, no matter how secure you are these days, it becomes a bit difficult to protect yourself from cyber fraud because everything has become online now and just by clicking on a wrong link, the work is over and you can lose everything. It depends on which device you have opened the link in. Many people take a lot of security measures for different devices and by doing this they manage it and by doing this they can protect themselves. Many people think that if someone takes any data from their phone, what can he do, but such a time comes later because nowadays everything of ours is in the mobile phone and we do not remember things but use them and it is easier to do so. We all are lazy people. There are very few people who like to remember things and we have become dependent on technology and perhaps this is our biggest mistake. I say that our biggest dependency has become on electronic items. Yes we should use things or should I say technology but we should not be so dependent on them that if you do not have it then you will not be able to do any work.
Well, this has happened to all of us at some point of time, but I am a little cautious, but there are always some people around us who get involved in such things even without wanting to and we realize this later. This happened around last year, a strange kind of post was being updated on the Instagram account of a colleague of my office and he was also posting a status in a somewhat suspicious manner in his status, maybe he too did not realize this because all this happened late at night. When we reached the office the next morning I asked him what type of status he was putting, have you won so much money, are you withdrawing so much money, when I asked him this question he was a little surprised and then when I showed him his status and his post he got more shocked because he had not done the process from here and when he was trying to access his account then he was not able to do it because his account was hacked, maybe he had clicked on someone's special link last night due to which he had to lose his account.
And probably because of this, someone was posting scam posts from his Instagram account and he was repeatedly mentioning his account balance in his status, which was getting credited to $1000 every few hours, but all this was fake because this had happened with other people as well, but now nothing could be done, but we all reported him to our office to block his account, and probably the next day that account was closed, but it left a very bad impact on a lot of people because some people might have believed in that thing and cheated him and after that he might have done the same with them as he did with him, he might have sent the same suspicious link to all of them and maybe they too might have cheated from their accounts. But it is not that such things can be avoided. Yes, if you do not trust any person or you do not open any link sent by an unknown person, if you have any doubt, then you can check about it and there are many such websites through which you can check the link and they are also very useful and you will know whether that link is safe or not.
There are many clever people involved in this too, they come up with new techniques and they know what kind of technique to use with people of which age and mostly they talk with boys of 20 years of age by pretending to be a girl and then most of the people get convinced by their words and start believing them and after this, their real game begins. There are many things by which you can keep yourself safe like you can turn on two factor authentication and keep your account private, only let your close friends join it and you can block messages coming from unknown people. There are many other security measures too which you can take and by doing this you can keep yourself safe.
Although this incident did not happen for the first time, it has happened to many people but from this we will learn that we should not click on any unknown link and neither should we fall for anyone's sweet talk because no one sends a message without any purpose, firstly and secondly if any unknown person is sending you a link then you should not open it even if he tries to cheat you in any way but you should work wisely and keep yourself safe, you are the only one who can protect yourself, yes there are many software applications available but if you make a mistake then even they cannot do anything. Immediately I would like to say that your safety is in your hands only, you are the only one who can save yourself and you are the only one who can hand yourself over to scammers, so never do any work in a hurry, whether it is about money or other things because often we do a lot of things in a hurry which we regret later.

Technology has made life comfortable surely but, sometimes the risks outweighed the benefits. That is why numerous cases of disease keeps appearing.
Indeed that is true, sometimes risk is worth taking in. Thanks a lot for stopping by and sharing your thoughts. have a great day and week ahead.

People usually fall into these traps in different ways, I have seen many young people who, by downloading an app or crack for a game, end up with their accounts compromised, or in many cases with cryptocurrency miners hidden in their PCs. This is how hackers work today (a black hat with +30 years of experience in cyber security tells you).
The best way to avoid all this is to educate yourself, read yourself and double-check everything you do online. Trust only highly reputable and legitimate sites, which generally have a large number of specialists in charge of ensuring security and ensuring that everything is legitimate. This minimizes the chances of these episodes occurring. It will be something very difficult to avoid, and even more so today that hackers already use AI to automate tasks and create surprising bots that maintain very human conversations with victims.
Technology things, so be careful my dear @bhattg that one day they may clone you (I would like to see what that would be like hahahaha) 😀
The dangers lie in things that seem harmless. Just look at how many apps exist that are stealing our data, and this is just the tip of the iceberg. The more technology advances, the more convenience we have, but the risks grow proportionally.

You are right in saying that the convenience caused by technology has brought its own consequences.
There are so many methods of cyber crimes have been developed so that you may fall trap despite being prudent. However, staying cautions minimizes the risk. Also adding double security checks may help
On one side technology has made life so easier and great. But there are also many risks. Not all people use this technology in the right way. Many of us used it wrong so we should aware of these things.
The technology has advantage as well a disadvantages also.
The scammers looks for the soft target like old person and young persons.
In todays era of technology its very important to stay updated and stay safe.
The scam you mentioned is very common and I also seen such incidents.
Greetings, reading your post I remembered some information I saw some time ago on YouTube, in which scammers copied and showed fake web pages, as if they were the official pages of a store like Apple or Amazon and if you are not a security expert it is difficult to recognize the scam.
It's a shame that those people use their intelligence to do things like that.
