But it did serve as a little reminder that not all sites are safe. My computer did not get infected with a virus, nor did I offer up my credit card numbers to a swindler. The extremely cautious Comodo Dragon Internet browser, from Internet and PC security firm Comodo, would have given me a little warning. When I arrived at the site, which by the way had a functioning certificate, I found it was a scam. As a case in point, last week I received an email from what I thought was a somewhat trusted source-this person had opted into a list that I help manage-suggesting that I look at a particular site as an example of how to promote brands in an online store. They live, in a sense, online, operating their businesses, marketing, and even servicing customers on the World Wide Web.īut the Internet can be a wild place, and sometimes digital natives become a little too comfortable with their surroundings.
