Thanks!

Use different passwords for your email accounts, Google Docs, and other online access; This means you shouldn't reuse a password.
Scan your computer for malware and spyware.
Never respond or provide personal information to any email you receive if you suspect that it is an Internet phishing scam.
Remember: organizations will not email you and ask for your details (they already have them!).
Change your password periodically.
If you think any of your information may be compromised change the password even more frequently.
When changing your password, always make a point of changing it drastically, rather than just a letter or two.
Just remember, you can never be too careful when it comes to Internet security.
