[/Quote]That being said VPN is no magic bullet. Most people get compromised by falling for phishing scams. If an email that legitimately looks like it's from your bank, paypal etc says "Oh no there a problem, click here to login and fix it". If you click on it and give the imposter access, the VPN won't help.[/QUOTE]

which is why I NEVER open anything from anyone I don't know. If I don't bank online, I won't open emails from my bank unless I am expecting it. Another way you can tell is if they have any funny icons in the title or who it's from, etc... Better yet, just don't open ANY emails you are not knowledgeable about where they come from, or not expecting.
