Pubblic WiFi... be very careful
 

Saw a few minutes ago a post from someone who was willing to connect to pubblic WiFi for getting the new IP to manage his accounts...

the usual stuff, the usual reply on how it is dagerous for the stealth accounts since the IP is overused but... this brought to my mind something I read a few months ago on web security.

This is a general warning for people who is using pubblic wifi.

The so called "man in the middle" attack is powerfull and it is very simple to activate... with a few $ even a newbie is capable of getting all your passwords with a device like this one:

yes... it looks like public wifi... but you are actually connecting to the smart guy PC

Not difficult. A lot of tutorials on youtube.
You can spot the "trick" if you know it but it is not easy.

The only way to protect yourself is to not connect to public wifi connections, I rather be on my 3G Mifi, at least then I'm in control.

I always find the 3G on my phone is faster, is that safe to use?

Good info though, I didn't know that.

Hacker can see your passwords EB, that's true. So it always a good idea to do everything through a VPN, so bad guys won't be able to see your traffic.

I use two stealth accounts via public Wifi. Since 2009 has been zero problems. I keep it under 200 transactions per account so risk outweighs the reward. If you have a serious legit account I would agree why be careless. There are risks involved with public wifi depending on circumstances and it can be an option. Personally I think in many places it is less risky now because of how much work especially for US stealth it takes to get an account going.
