How to protect your Orkut account from Hackers?
It has been commonly observed that user accounts are easily compromised through phishing schemes, trojans and spywares. As a starting point, the following steps are recommended:-
- Avoid sharing your username, password and personal information secret and better chane your password regularly. Use a password combination (with a minimum password length of atleast 8 characters) with an uppercase, lowercase, a digit and some special characters making it much harder for someone to guess your password.
- Never paste a URL or a javascript when logged into orkut regardless of what it claims to do. Never click on links in emails that claims to be from Gmail or Orkut.
- Don’t enter your Google Account username and password on sites other than orkut.com and other Google networks sites.
- Sign out when you are done: Don’t forget to click the Logout link at the top of the page when you’re done with using orkut. This should be strictly followed when using a orkut from a shared computer.
