In the Internet society, we have many places to use our personal information. Whether in life, entertainment or work, we all have the possibility to fill in personal information. Then for some reasons, logging in to an unknown website will cause the disclosure of personal information. So, what if you accidentally disclose personal information? I'll tell you a few ways below.
1. What should I do if I accidentally reveal my personal information online?
1, change the account number. After personal information is leaked, you should change your account as soon as possible. Because the network is very developed now, if you don't change your account after the information is leaked, all kinds of information registered under this account will flow out continuously. Therefore, once the source of the leak is found, it is necessary to immediately stop using the account and cut off the source of the leak from the source.
2. Change important passwords. Nowadays, people can't live without the Internet. Once personal information is leaked, it involves a wide range. Especially for people who like online shopping, personal information is often associated with important information such as bank account number and password. Therefore, once personal information is leaked, important passwords should be changed immediately to avoid economic losses.
3. report the case. According to Article 42 of the Law on Public Security Administration Punishment: "Anyone who commits one of the following acts shall be detained for not more than five days or fined not more than 500 yuan; If the circumstances are serious, they shall be detained for more than five days and less than ten days, and may be fined up to five hundred yuan:
(1) writing threatening letters or threatening the personal safety of others by other means;
(2) publicly insulting others or fabricating facts to slander others;
(3) fabricating facts, falsely accusing and framing others, and attempting to subject others to criminal investigation or public security administration punishment;
(4) Threatening, insulting, beating or retaliating against witnesses and their close relatives;
(5) sending obscene, insulting, intimidating or other information for many times to interfere with the normal life of others;
(six) voyeurism, sneak shots, eavesdropping, spreading the privacy of others. "Once personal information is leaked, you should call the police. The purpose of reporting a case is to protect and safeguard one's rights and interests, and the other is to file a case. Once more people encounter similar situations to yours, they can deal with them together. This can not only protect your privacy, but also avoid more economic losses.
4. Lawyers sue. If important personal information is lost and you know how to lose it or have many clues, you can consult relevant laws and regulations with professional lawyers. If the lawyer gives a positive answer, he can use legal weapons to safeguard his rights and interests.
5. Collect evidence. After the information is leaked, it is easy to receive all kinds of emails and phone calls from all over the world. At this time, you should pay attention and write down useful information such as the phone number or email address of the other party. Perhaps this information is trivial, but once collected, it can not only help you defend your rights, but also help more people.
6. Irrelevant information can be ignored. Now the information leakage is very serious, and it is impossible to prevent it. If you investigate everything, you may not have so much energy and time. Therefore, you can choose to ignore irrelevant information that does not involve your own interests.
Second, how to prevent information leakage when surfing the Internet?
1. Choose a reliable platform.
With the advent of the e-commerce era, the words "marketing" and "user" have been paid more and more attention, the competition has become more and more fierce, and new platforms have been born. I believe you must have encountered a new platform to engage in preferential activities to attract users, which is a very common marketing tool. We'd better get to know them first when we choose, even if it's just to search the qualifications of the platform online.
2. Don't trust foreign information, and don't voluntarily disclose personal information.
I have often seen some special forms of fraud recently. The other party has some information about you in order to get more information from you, such as strange phone calls and verification codes. , or through some online instant chat tools, through some means, or even intimidation, to directly or indirectly obtain your personal information.
Step 3 Use security software
The use of security software is also very necessary, even if it seems to treat hooligans according to netizens' jokes, but at least it helps users avoid a lot of conventional information leakage, and the advantages outweigh the disadvantages in general.
4. Suppress your curiosity
Many times, when the mobile phone receives information or some addresses or links from the online chat tool, if you are not sure of the source or doubt its security, please don't open it to prevent it from invading your personal computer or stealing your personal information.
When surfing the Internet on weekdays, you should go to Netan's website, use security software, and don't fill in personal information casually. Accidentally leaked the information, if the information is important, we must modify the relevant password. Anyone who is illegally used by others and causes losses to himself should call the police and pay attention to collecting evidence.
