How To Protect Yourself From Credit Card Fraud ?



Steps to protect against credit card fraud


1. Demand a new replacement credit and debit card if yours was compromised.
2. Check your bank account register and credit card activity online 
3. Be alert for post-breach phishing attempts. 
4. Lock down your credit report with a security freeze
5. Get as many as  free credit reports per year 
6.  Change your passwords regularly 



If you think you may be at risk:
  • Immediately go online to your credit card’s website to check for recent activity.  You don’t have to wait for your statement. Most credit card companies will show you recent transactions, sometimes immediately after they occur. If you see anything suspicious, report it immediately to the company.
  • Call your credit card company to ask about a fraud alert. That will cause them to take extra precautions before anyone can open an account in your name.
  • Ask the bank or credit card company what free services they offer to people whose information may have been breached. This could include a free fraud alert service, free access to your credit report.




Tips for safe shopping:
  • Review your bank and credit card statements frequently for unusual transactions.
  • In the event of a security breach involving your credit card, monitor your account and contact your bank promptly if you see any suspicious transactions.
  • If the security breach involves your debit card, the best way to protect yourself is to immediately cancel the card and get a replacement with a different number.
  • Don’t make purchases in free Wi-Fi hotspots, such as a coffee shop, which can put your passwords and other information at risk.
  • Shop on secure websites. One indicator about which websites are safe, and which are not, is the presence of a yellow padlock icon in the browser bar. Another indicator is ‘https’ in the web address.
  • Never send sensitive personal or financial information through e-mail. Legitimate companies will not ask you to do so because it is not a secure way to transfer sensitive information.
  • If you are receiving text messages on your cell phone saying you have won a prize or gift card, do not click on the link in the message – it is most likely a scam and may install a virus on your phone.
  • Know the return policies of the retailers you shop with before you leave the store or conclude an online transaction. Many retailers will give you a refund if you have a receipt and your return is prompt, but some may only give store credit. Ask a clerk if the policy is not posted at the register.

Google Integrates Food Ordering Into Search Results For Restaurants

Google now lets users in the U.S. order food from six companies—Seamless, Grubhub, Eat24, Delivery.com, BeyondMenu, and MyPizza.com—directly from search results.
If someone searches for a restaurant that offers delivery through one of those providers, an option for “place an order” will show up in its Google information. Users are then shown links to delivery services and complete the order directly on their sites.


Google redirects users to its main search site, and is therefore able to see not only what kind of food and restaurants they are interested in, but also which delivery services they prefer—information that may come in handy as the tech giant builds its other verticals, including e-commerce.

Four Simple Tips to Increase the Life of Your Phone's Battery

Properly charging your smartphone is essential for maintaining the health of your battery, and ensuring better battery life and increased safety in the long run.








1. Don't let your phone overheat
Heat is perhaps the worst enemy of lithium-ion batteries, the kind most smartphones use. "You should take basic precautions like not keeping your phone on the dash board of the car where it will get a lot of direct sunlight,". You should also avoid charging your phone while playing graphically intensive games, because that will also raise the temperature of the phone and harm the battery.
The ideal charging temperature is between 20-30 degrees Celsius.
2. Don't use your phone while charging
Avoid using the phone while it is charging. This is called parasitic charging and this kind of usage can apparently be quite damaging. "Small amounts of usage load stop the battery from entering a full charging cycle, damaging the battery,".
3. Don't use a fake charger
Use only the company's own chargers - this is particularly important if your phone supports quick charging. High capacity chargers can quickly charge the phone up to 70 percent capacity, but can also damage it in the process, if not properly optimised.
4. Don't leave the phone on the charger all night
While charging your phone overnight will probably not damage it, there is a chance that it is hurting your battery life.
