What are the dangers of online fingerprint fraud?
If cybercriminals get hold of your user profile, including your online fingerprint, they can evade security measures imposed by web shops and, in certain cases, banks. Once they install malware on your computer, they receive an update every time you change a password.
The dangers are that the criminals could dine out or go on an online shopping spree at your expense. Worse still, you could lose control of your social media accounts; your bank account could be emptied; and/or somebody could open a social media account or bank account in your name.
