Online Trust Failing Overall

twitter writes "The BBC and ZDNet are reporting on an RSA poll of 1,000 users about failing confidence in ecommerce. 43% of respondents were reluctant to give details to online sites and 70% said that firms were not doing enough to keep their data secure. The BBC goes on to quote experts who back up the perception, ZDNet claims that action is being taken and is well."

    I just got a really nice email from a DR. VICENTE A. SOUSA from the DEPARTMENT OF OIL & DOWNSTREAM SECTOR in ANGOLA.

    Very polite, humble (he even SAYS so) and ... you know, the email was really long with all sorts of details (kind of like those agreements when you put a CD in the computer) so I just said yes because it's supposed to be easy money. :)

    I TOTALLY know! I saw a video of this girl who had confidence that this guy WASN'T going to do this thing to her... AND HE DID! I was like, "I SO don't have confidence in the net anymore!" ...I'm sorry, I don't know where that came from. It must be time to go home...

    I'm not liable for any $$ amount on my credit card or my debit. I'll say, though, I use debit card rather than my credit card. Why? Cause the bank doesn't have as much to lose as the CC company. With the bank it's all your money, with the CC company, it's their's until you pay it back, which means you have one more person in your corner - and with better lawyers, probably ;).

    Ladies and gentlemen: this is why you shouldn't trust any legal advice obtained from Slashdot.
