Intro:
Most Internet users are accustomed to using the Google search engine to get whatever information they want. Basic information, food, recipes, online banking service, online shopping and everything from buying drugs to alerts to users searching on Google Search.
First of all understand that Google does not create all the websites you see on Google. Understand that Google only serves as an online platform that searches for websites that provide you with the information you need. Here are 10 common things to look for in Google and what the risks are
1. Online Banking Risk
Avoid searching your bank's online banking websites on Google. As the chances of phishing are increasing drastically, you will get into trouble by entering your bank's login ID and password, which looks like a bank's official website
2. Risk by Customer Care Numbers
Never search for companies' customer care numbers at Google. Fraudsters have posted fake numbers, such as original customer care numbers for fraud. Do not get wasted in their web
3. Risk With Apps Download
To download the apps you need, download the apps from official sites like Google Play Store and App Store. Google has a chance to download the vulnerabilities with malware. Avoid getting into trouble like this
4.Medicines and medi symptoms
Never search for drugs or medical signs on Google. Know that it can endanger your life. When you are sick, it is best to consult a doctor. Avoid ordering medications online. Keep in mind that not all medical symptoms are accurate on Google
5. Personal finance and stock market risk
Like health, personal finance is unique to everyone, and know that there can never be an investment plan that will make everyone rich. Therefore, avoid seeking advice from Google search results when investing
6. Risk through government websites
Like bank websites, government websites such as municipal tax and hospitals are the main targets of fraudsters. So if you know the right URL, go to those sites directly. Don't get caught on the websites of phony fraudsters
7. Risk of social website login
Do not login to social website accounts from Google. Always be advised to login with social website apps, keep in mind that logging in with Google can lead to phishing
8. E-Commerce Website Risk
Free coupon sites for offers on e-commerce websites and fake e-commerce websites are increasingly on Google search. If you click on these sites, be aware that your online banking details are stolen
9. Anti-virus Risk
We use antivirus itself to prevent danger. What is the problem? The reason is, there is a risk in free antivirus. Be aware that behind something that is free, you will definitely be disappointed
10. Coupon line risk
For discounts on online shopping, if you get a coupon line, that's fine. But do not give your bank details to bad guys by searching coupon lines on Google
