Smishing

The word "smishing" comes from the term "SMS phishing," which scammers use to target people via text messages on their phones. Smishing attempts are similar to email phishing in that they trick recipients into giving out sensitive data. To lure victims, scammers often impersonate legitimate entities, like banks, government agencies, or popular services. Messages like this may contain urgent requests, false alerts, or alluring offers, enticing recipients to click on malicious links, provide personal info, or make unauthorized payments.

Have never given PC security much…

Have never given PC security much thought. Usually just download a free one! The last couple of years the free ones have annoyed me so much with their constant advertisements for themselves etc, that I removed them from my computer. It was great to discover Guardio, It has been a relief having it with so much going on in the world and so many nasty people scamming innocent people. It's great when I think I want to click on a site and a Guardio message come up saying they believe it is a dangerous site so I don't go there.

Old Chromebook With Outdated Virus Protection

I have an older model Chromebook with built-in virus protection that Google no longer updates. The C-Book works fine, but I was hesitant to use it due to outdated protection. I also didn't want to buy a new model since mine still works quite well. Guardio to the rescue! Thank you for a good product.
