10 accounts more valuable to cybercriminals than your credit card By Charlie Fripp, Komando.com
Cybercriminals will go to virtually any length to get their hands on your valuable data and personal details. Scamming users with fake ads and malicious emails, criminals use all kinds of methods to steal your money and identity.
But not all your personal data is equally as valuable. As with any traded commodity, the value fluctuates depending on what it is and the amount of information that comes with it.
Your credit card information ranks incredibly high on the âmost wantedâ list of any cybercriminal. With it, they will be able to go on a shopping spree on your dime. It is not a situation that you want to find yourself in. Believe it or not, there are worse things that can be stolen than your credit cards.
