Fraud websites or wrong information identifying websites
Recently if a person called X doesn't like another person called Y, he can very easily SPOIL the good name and image of person Y using or MIS-USING INTERNET and SOCIAL MEDIA.
If the person Y is a well known personality, then the message spreading is VERY FAST.
Since I have lot of free time now, sometimes I used do SOME RESEARCH on the SUSPICIOUS MESSAGES that I receive. Many times it had been proved that the - CIRCULATED MESSAGE IS FALSE.
1] We don't donate a DIRTY PAPER to a friend.
2] We don't donate or share a TORN CLOTH to a friend.
3] We don't purposefullly tell a wrong direction to an address or place when somebody enquires us about it.
WE JUST SAY - SORRY I DON'T KNOW AND THERE ENDS THE MATTER.
But in manipulated electronic message we don't do that - WE CIRCULATE - MESSAGES WITHOUT ENSURING THE AUTHENTICITY.
IT IS NOT WRONG?
You may say your carelessness is like a cup of dirty waste in a huge water body. Ok you are of course correct. But suppose, if daily everyone pours one cup of DIRTY WATER in a lake from which water is used for DRINKING WATER purpose. What will happen to the lake after one month or six months?
JUST REPLACE THE "LAKE" WITH THE INTERNET DOMAIN OR THE SOCIAL MEDIA.
