I’m a senior high school student.Today I want to blog about a question—how to protect ourselves from being cheated when shopping online.
First of all,you’d better use a website you are familiar with.Try not to use strange websites.Second,use strong passwords.If your password is too short and simple,change it immediately.A good one should have a mixture of letters,numbers and other characters.It should be completely random.Third,I suggest that you should not use public computers when shopping.It makes your private information in risk of being stolen.
If you have some good advice for staying safe when shopping online,please post your comments.
Version 2
Hello,everyone.I’m a senior high school student.Today I want to blog about something that I think is very important.Unfortunately,I know about the topic well because I made a silly mistake.That was to make my email password “password 123”!
About six months ago,someone hacked my email account.That means they found out my password,then tried to use my account to take money from me and sent viruses to all my contacts! Luckily my friend told me when she got a strange email from me,so I changed my password immediately.I read about how to make a good password.A good one should have a mixture of both upper case (large capital) letters and lower case (small) letters,numbers and other characters.It also should not be a name or date or anything someone can guess.It should be completely random,that is,it shouldn’t make sense! Although it can be hard to remember lots of complicated passwords,it is worth it! These days you can also use a password manager.This is a special program that helps you manage passwords for all your different accounts.
Although I hope nothing similar has happened to my readers,please comment if you have had a similar experience or if you have any more good ideas about making your passwords super safe! Catch you later!
