There is protection for credit card with maximum US 50 consumer liability. Of course, no one likes to have loss of US 50. But it is important to avoid losing even more.
With Internet, many have use online investment that may involve much greater amount. From the news, "E*Trade Offers to Reimburse Any Victims of Online Fraud", this will let E*Trade account holders a great relieve.
It is also mentioned, '...data thieves have been able to gain access to an investor's system by installing software that tracks the keystrokes when an investor logs into a brokerage account...'.
This also confirms our suggestion Avoid Keylogger with UPSSL Version 2.0, for the users of our USC Password Security System Light Version, to avoid such type of threat. Remember that data thieves may use the rootkit that we have no way to clear.
We need to note that even though E*Trade has promised to reimburse any loss, yet it does not mean that problem would be solved within a short time. The victim's online investment may not be functioning normally for a few days. So the loss is not just the stolen amount. That means even with the reimbursing promise, one must be careful for his/her own online activities.
