The Heartbleed Bug<\/h3>\n

April 11, 2014<\/p>\n

An encryption software bug called \u201cHeartbleed\u201d may become one of the biggest security threats the Internet has ever experienced. The bug has already affected many popular websites and services \u2014 ones you might use every day, like Gmail, Facebook, Instagram, etc…..<\/p>\n

Many Internet companies that were vulnerable to the bug have already updated their servers with a security patch to fix the issue. However, as a precautionary measure customers of these companies are being advised to go in and change their passwords for these sites.<\/p>\n

This has prompted a new concern with false emails being sent with links to fake “change your password” websites.<\/strong><\/p>\n

SPAM emails are now arriving throughout the world asking people to change their password with the goal being to trick the customer into providing a legitimate password, credit card information, or to install malicious software on the persons computer.<\/p>\n

PLEASE REMEMBER: Unsolicited emails with links in them are in most cases NOT helpful. \u00a0Don’t click that link! Don\u2019t forward the email to others! Delete the email.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Following an unexpected email link to a password change page is the most common way to have your credentials stolen or pick up malware that will infect your computer.<\/p>\n

We recommend you browse to the sites you use regularly by typing the name in the address bar and then change your password.<\/strong><\/p>\n
