We all know the consequences of having your MySpace account phished. Identity theft is a very serious offence and such scams are plaguing MySpace users all across the world. Such malicious practices can cause loss of information including login and passwords as well as credit card information. To avoid the heartache, remind yourself to change your passwords regularly and never use the same passwords twice. Also, try not to incorporate details from your login in your password. If your login name is Sarah, don’t set passwords containing that particular word. And try to periodically update your browsers whenever new editions are out. Upgrade your browsers to the current IE7 or Firefox 3 versions can prevent your account details from being compromised.
