10 years ago, what the internet use to be is not what it is
now, a lot of things have changed; there has been a lot of improvement in
technology, and that alone has made our lives easier. Hardly before you can
find someone who isn’t on any social media… even my aged mum is on social
media, tweeting, Facebooking and Instagram-ing.

Despite these improvements, there are thing you shouldn’t do
online, some of us are guilty of it and it is important we correct it.
online, some of us are guilty of it and it is important we correct it.
1. Using one Password:
I agree that not many people can remember all of their
passwords. So they find one good, strong password that they use for absolutely
everything. It is absolutely wrong to
use the same password for your Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, email etc. You
need to have more than one password. In fact, you need at least three to five different
passwords that you use for different internet accounts.

2. Using Weak Password:
Do you know that a lot of us use easy to guess password? How
can you use 123456 as your password or 7654321… This can make any dummy easily
guess your password and hack into your account. Even using your date of birth as
password is not correct.

A good password should comprises of Letters, numbers symbols
etc… e.g M4_09!… Let your password be strong enough that no demon on earth
will be able to guess it.

3. Being Careless with Login details:
Let’s get this facts right… They call it login details
because it is exclusive to you, it belongs to you and nobody else… not even
your wife or your boyfriend should have access to your login details. That way,
your information’s are secured when it is exclusively known to you alone.

4. Storing Your Login Details on Public Computers or
Personal Computers.
Personal Computers.
Some of us still make use of the Café and even store our
login details on the used browser which is absolutely not right. Even storing
your login details on your own personal computer is not right because somehow,
someday someone might have access to it.

5. Displaying your email Address in a comment:
I have stopped this long ago and ensure that every email
that has ever been published on this blog was deleted. Never leave your email
address on any blog post, Facebook or any platform that exposes it to the
public, it is not safe.

6. Links in Email:
Criminals love clickable links in emails. They absolutely
love them. Yes, they are a good idea in theory. But sometimes, theory and real
life do not work in the same way. Clicking on a link in your email might take
you to a website with malicious software.

Inshort do not download any attachment you don’t know
anything in your email, they can use it to hack into your account.

7. Do not synchronize your Social Media Account
Synchronizing Facebook, Instagram, twitter, in such a way
that when you make an update on Facebook it automatically sends it to other
social network isn’t right at all. It sounds great in theory, but it is awful
in real life. What you need to understand is that every social network is
different. What works on Facebook, doesn’t work on Twitter, Linkedin or
Instagram.

8. Revealing Your Phone Number:
A lot of people are guilty of this, post their phone numbers
on Facebook, so that anyone can just check on you, PM you or WhatsApp you. Be
smart about it and be wise about it.

oga yomi. I use my gt bank atm for purchases online Aliexpress precisely. but I need to buy an item worth 250dollars but the bank limit for a month is 100dollars. please how do I go about it. my email is [email protected]
The only way you can fix this is to get a Dollar master card for yourself. Request it from your bank… No limitation to the card.
Yomi, I hope you can use Payoneer card without restrictions in Nigeria?
Yomi Weldone for the wonderful posr.
As for limitations on dollar Mastercard, gtbank has placed 10,000 USD limit per month.
From WizyTechs
Prof, this limitation of 100 dollars isn't only for GTB or all the bank.
@Viklin, yes, you can use Payooneer without limitation in Nigeria.
@Wizy baba, 10,000USD limit is only applicable to Dom account and not Dollar Master Card.
@Mustapha, You are right… Hence Payoneer master card or Dollar master card is the way forward
Thanks Yomi
