Okay, I’ll admit it.
No, I’m not a cyber criminal. I admit that I (me! moi!) was a victim of cyber crime no less than twice this year. And we’re only in March. I am not entirely stupid when it comes to cyber security and I have a healthy level of paranoia but still I fell for a social engineering scheme and my webserver was invested with malware, which forced me to wipe everything clean and put this new version online which is still very much under construction. Pardon my lorem and watch my ipsum.
What’s important to acknowledge is that these attacks should not be a source of shame or tarnish the reputation of individuals or institutions. Cybercriminals are becoming increasingly sophisticated in their tactics, exploiting vulnerabilities in systems and leveraging psychological manipulation to deceive even the most vigilant users. In today’s interconnected world, where digital technologies permeate every aspect of our lives, the risk of cybercrime is omnipresent.
The silence is helping the criminals to prolong their winning streak. Speak up. Let others learn from your experience. so that they can prepare themselves for when the bad guys come knocking on their door. It’s just a matter of time and it’s not just about viruses anymore.
I for one will elaborate in detail about what happened to me in the coming days. For now I wish you all safe puting, except for the soab who tried to scheme me out of a couple of thousand euros. To him I wish pubic rash, chronic diarrhea and lots of lego blocks at night. Also, I know where you live.
