Spyware
|
|
Spyware is a computer software programme that installs itself without a user’s
permission and does not inform
the user what information it is
gathering from the computer and
how it is using it.
It transmits collected information
to an unauthorised organisation
that uses it to make a profit in
some way.
It can lead to security issues
such as 'Keylogging', 'Confidential
Information Leakage' and 'Compromise
Computer Security'.
|
To prevent spyware installation
without your consent, remember not to download any freeware onto
computer that you use to access Internet banking.
Always run an anti-virus software program and/or anti-spyware software
before you download other programs or open emails.
Update your anti-virus software and Windows security patches.
Change your Internet banking password REGULARLY to protect your
personal data. |

Beware
of Fraudulent E-mails
|
|
There have recently been fraudulent e-mails in Hong Kong circulation which claim to be issued by directors/senior executives/employees of Hang Seng Bank. Typically, recipients of these e-mails are invited to claim a large sum of money held in the name of an account-holder since deceased, by posing as his next-of-kin. The recipients are asked to provide the issuer with their personal details.
Please note that these e-mails were not issued by Hang Seng or its employees. Hang Seng has already reported the cases to the Hong Kong Police for investigation. If you receive e-mails of this kind you may wish to contact your local GongAn.
