Well, scamware is a cyber infection after all, and it relies on the usual entering tactics. Like, freeware bundles, for instance. This method is very effective and popular among crooks mostly because the majority of users are far less attentive than they should be. They rush the installation process and don’t read the Terms and Conditions. Instead, they blindly click “I agree/next” until the installment is over. This is the worst possible approach.

Infections pray for your haste and distraction. By being negligent you are only making yourself an even easier victim. Take your time. Double-check what you are giving green light to. Choose safety over speed. And we don’t only mean freeware bundling. There are other infiltration methods which are just as effective if you are still careless. For example, fake program updates, spam emails messages, corrupted links/pages, unverified download sources, etc. Be on the alert while online.
