👀 Could your next Google search lead you into a cyber trap?
🔐 Are you sure that “HR login” link isn’t a fake?

🚨 The FBI just issued a Public Service Announcement warning EVERYONE — yes, even you — that cybercriminals are now targeting employee self-service websites (like payroll, benefits, and HR portals).

Here’s how it works:
 ⚠️ Fraudsters buy search engine ads that look legit
⚠️ The ad directs you to a fake login page
⚠️ You enter your info... and they steal it

🔎 They’re after YOUR login, YOUR paycheck, and YOUR personal financial data.

🛡️ What to do:
✅ Never click login links from search ads
✅ Always navigate directly to known URLs
✅ Use multi-factor authentication on everything

Stay sharp. Stay secure.
 This isn’t just IT’s job — it’s everyone’s job now.

Kurt Long, founder and CEO of a privacy-based messaging app BUNKR (https://www.bunkr.life/) join David Mauro to discuss: how civil discourse helps our country, Newest Ways To Take Control Over Data Privacy, and why protecting online privacy is important.

Summary
The conversation explores the topics of data privacy, government surveillance, and underreporting of crimes. Kurt Long, CEO of Bunker and an expert in privacy and information security, discusses the risks associated with leaving a digital footprint and the increasing power of governments in surveillance. 

He highlights the non-enforcement of laws and under-reporting of crimes by global governments, putting citizens at risk. The conversation also touches on the balance between privacy and surveillance, the impact of uncontrolled immigration, and the need for civil discourse and transparency in government actions. 

The conversation explores the correlation between underreported crime and the development of technology solutions. It delves into the challenges faced by law enforcement agencies in infiltrating criminal activities and how the tech industry has responded by creating encrypted and private platforms. The discussion also highlights the rise of cybercrime on platforms like the dark web and the importance of valuing personal privacy. 

The need for enforcement of existing laws and regulations, especially in areas like data privacy and security, is emphasized. The conversation concludes with practical best practices for individuals, including password management, reducing attack surfaces, and using secure communication tools.
