Easily cheated, easily loss.......

That true nani..I totally agreed about identity theft and phishing scams. The perpetrators very skillfull to manage all these crimes. I want to add something here about spam and internet child pornography.These two thing are also can easily exposed to perpetrators.

As the use of Electronic Mail increases throughout the world, so has the emergence of Unsolicited Commercial E-mail (UCE), which is more commonly known as "spam." For many consumers, UCE is a time-consuming nuisance. For others, it has been a costly learning experience as they have lost money responding to bogus scams that arrived in their e-mail inbox. Often, e-mail spammers purchases bulk e-mail addresses from a list broker. These brokers are able to compile addresses from a wide array of electronic "directories". If your e-mail address appears in a newsgroup posting, on a website, in a chat room, or in an online service's membership directory, it may find its way into the hands of a broker. Marketers then use special software capable of sending hundreds of thousands - even millions - of email messages to the addresses at the just click of a mouse!.

For Child pornography, parents who neglect the role to observes the online activities of their children may welcome perpetrators. Adults who prey on children often befriend children they meet online and arrange meetings with them for sexual purposes. The children who agree to meet an online "friend" typically do so without knowing that the person on the other end is an adult pretending to be a child.

That’s how person are easily exposed to perpetrators. Every types of internet crime have their own ways on how ones person can be exposed. Maybe if there is any information, others can add it, so that we become aware against this crimes.
