Everyday Tech | The DMV Scams & Mississippi #1 in Spam

Host(s): Abram Nanney and Sabir Abdul-Haqq (www.yourebs.biz)Topic: Here we go again, another week and we have even more hacks to talk about. From small time hacks like Spotify uploads, on up to potentially the largest hack of all time in the National Public Data breach. It really seems like we can’t catch a break, but luckily the NSA also issued a press release recently detailing how you can prevent cyberattacks on your personal smart devices. We’ll share those tips and explain them to you later.Email your tech questions and opinions to: [email protected] Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Host(s): Abram Nanney and Sabir Abdul-Haqq (www.yourebs.biz)Topic: This past week a HUGE new scam hit Mississippi callers and phone users of a text message pretending to be the Mississippi Department of Vehicles. And you heard that right it is a scam, so don’t click the links, don’t respond, and please don’t give any information. We learned through this that Mississippi is the Number One State in the country for phone users receiving unwanted spam and scam calls.Email your tech questions and opinions to: [email protected] Hosted on Acast.
