SECURITY ALERT:Account Hacking at All-Time Highs
The numbers are alarming:
- Cyberattacks happen every 39 seconds
- Password attacks have surged to 7,000 attempts per second
- 40% of cyberattacks are now AI-driven and more sophisticated than ever
- 75% of attacks start with your EMAIL
Your accounts ARE being targeted,
RIGHT NOW!
Even "average" users are facing automated, mass attacks;
designed to exploit basic vulnerabilities.
AUDIT YOUR ACCOUNTS TODAY:
Check for these RED FLAGS:
- Unrecognized login locations/times in your account activity
- Email forwarding rules you didn't create
- Unknown devices connected to your accounts
- Apps with access you don't remember authorizing
IMMEDIATE ACTION REQUIRED:
1. Enable 2FA on ALL accounts - (use authenticator apps, NOT SMS)2. Change passwords - use unique, strong passwords for every account
3. Review email filters - attackers often hide here
4. Sign out all devices and sign back in only on trusted ones
5. Update recovery information and remove unknown methods
DON'T WAIT UNTIL YOU'RE LOCKED OUT
The "new normal" means verification/premium support is often required to get help when hacked.
Invest in account verification for critical social media and business accounts NOW.
Why this matters:
A single compromised email account is the master key to your entire digital life; banking, social media, work, shopping accounts, everything!!
