4. Scanning unfamiliar QR codes
We’ve been seeing a lot of these QR codes in magazines, on tickets, buses, business cards, TV, websites, on almost any object which we might want to learn more about. On the one hand, they’ve become great marketing tools for advertisers; on the other, cybercriminals have spotted their potential as a means of spreading malware, stealing identities and phishing for personal information.
