1. Be aware of the free access wifi.
Most of the time, the shop will provide wifi service but generally must key in the wifi password. When we connect to the Wifi at some public places, there will be a high risk. Hackers will frequently use WiFi access points with common names like airports or cafes so that your device will automatically connect without your knowledge. The name may very similar to the name of the cafe, and do not set any passwords, just to confuse people to click on the wrong wifi server. This is also one of the channels through which hackers can steal personal information. Do not select the option to remember the WiFi network and be sure to remove your device when finish using the wifi.
