Security problem?

I've read and heard over and over that the best hackers use the weakest link to hack into systems. Don't know what the weakest link is? It's you and me! How else could phishing scams be so successful?

Now I don't think I'd fall for that. But plenty of people probably would. So keep a sharp lookout and remember to keep your password(s) to yourself.
