NGU Members warning

This is a warning to all nextgenupdate members. Due to various people being hacked we remind you not to login to any links send in PM and over any instant messenger.

NGU will never ask for you're password.

Ways a hacker can fool you.

Phishers.

Phishers are a fake login page which once you put in your details, the hack can gain access to your account. We remind you. Have different passwords for different things.

Ways they can fool you are by either offering money for something or giving away something for free.

Remember you will never get something for nothing as there is always a trick behind it.


Any link sent to you please make sure you check the URL bar at the top of the page. Make sure its legit and not something fake.

Other methods are using Hyper links.

This means you might click a link they provided looks legit but once clicked if you notice the URL bar it has changed.

If you stick by this you wont be hacked.

Also dont accept any files from someone unless you have your Firewall and Anti-virus ENABLED

Thanks,

Nextgenupdate

REMEMBER: NGU Staff will NEVER ask you for your password, address, etc. [/CENTER]
