I’ve even put some handy sharing buttons below to make this super easy for you…so do it now!

You people have a responsibility to help and educate those who aren’t a smart or diligent as you, so send them here to this post or send them off to one of the (much better) links I posted above. People who read this post are probably going to be technically minded enough that they avoid these pitfalls, or paranoid enough in their real lives to take precautions online. Most of the tips actually involve simply not doing something, so they hardly require any effort to implement. Resources like these are easy to come by and simple to understand. Top ten tips tell your kids to keep them safe online …and just for good measure, a few tips to tell your kids to help keep them safe online: How can I protect against social engineering attacks? The complete guide to avoiding online scams

If you don’t know how to stay safe online, these guys will teach you most of the stuff you need to know: Even the tech savvy should be aware of it and Facebook is one of the easiest places criminals can get hold of your all important personal data. Social engineering has become one of the easiest ways to get around some of the better security measures you can put in place on your online accounts. Take a look at one of the most common ways you will be targeted after making the mistake of commenting on one of these memes. Not least because you would be falling into the trap of thinking ‘someone else must have made sure this is safe’ which is simply ludicrous and illogical, but also because of the nature of phishing scams (particularly those focused on social engineering), which are specifically designed to mimic just this sort of ‘harmless’ detritus that floats around the web. “…well it’s obvious that this was just a Facebook message, and their friends probably did it, so they knew it was safe.” If you were equally almost as stupid as the Facebook idiots who comment of photos like those above, you might posit the argument:

You have a vested interest in teaching your less savvy friends and relatives the basics to keep them (and by proxy – you) safe and free from inconvenience online. If their computers get hacked and become part of some email botnet, you get spammed. If your friends social media accounts get hacked, your data is at risk. Think about it this way: if so many people are so innocently running into such a simple ‘trap’ just to give some unwashed acne riddled 17 year old wet-bag a few giggles with his badly dressed mates, what hope do these people face when targeted by sophisticated and organised online criminals? Who is there to educate these new net users about the dangers the may face out there in the wild back lands? Do experienced users simply let newbies get hacked or spammed, just so we can sit back for a few Schadenfreude Lulz? Many of these commenter’s are young, or old, or don’t know better and probably haven’t run into this sort of thing before, but this highlights a wider problem – that of education. Perhaps it is human nature to sate the curiosity bug? I like to think so because the thought of there being so many unintelligent morons in the world is actually quite depressing. This is by no means the first such post I have seen and certainly not the most populous, the one garnering the most responses I saw literally ran into millions.
