hi all...
the technological aspect of every online transaction is said to be safe. as Guybrush has pointed out, it is next to imposible to break the cipher.
but the human aspect of it is vulnerable. we as all vulnerable to con artists(frauds). cyber criminals are all con artists first. then they are computer geeks. so, if you are smart enough not to be coned, online transaction is safe.
let me give you an example. the cyber criminal would set up a site, with juicy flesh revealing stuf on his website. now he would ask you give him your credit card details, just as an age verification.
if you fall for this one, rest assured there is a breach. <b>there is no technology in this world that can save you from con artists. only you can save yourself.</b>
