Newsletter: No such thing as a free lunch: scammers exploit new ‘data-leak-compensation’ scheme

01/22/2020 05:23:18 PM

Everyone wants to watch free live concerts; everyone wants to get freebies; a lot would die finding a way to stream their favorite TV shows and movies for free; a lot would want to travel and win an all-expense paid vacation.

Hell, a lot would even want to eat for free, because who can actually – and really – say no to food, right?  Well, don't take it literally as we still tackle about "money" here.

But hey, even in 2020, things like this may still happen. Global cybersecurity firm Kaspersky has recently exposed an online fraud scheme that involves personal data.

(Nadine Lustre's Instagram, Rappler)

2020 na, pero ang dami pa ring mga taong patola sa mga bagay-bagay. Ok sana eh. I mean, magandang bagay na nga na maraming nagbabatuhan ng kuro-kuro sa mga seryosong balita (kahit na sa totoo lang ay nagiging cancer narin ang mga thread ng mga post sa social media dahil sa mga jeskeng patutsadahan ng mga Dilawan at mga ka-DDS).
