📸 Real-Life Incident: Fake Wi-Fi Hotspots at Cafes & Airports

Hackers often set up rogue Wi-Fi networks in public places with names like "Free Airport WiFi" or "Cafe Guest WiFi".
Once you connect, they can:

Steal your passwords
Intercept banking details
Track the websites you visit

Many people only realize after unauthorized transactions show up on their accounts.

How to stay safe:

✅ Always confirm the official Wi-Fi name with staff before connecting
✅ Avoid logging into banking or sensitive accounts on public Wi-Fi
✅ Use a trusted VPN to encrypt your traffic
✅ Turn off auto-connect for Wi-Fi on your phone/laptop

Public Wi-Fi isn't always free; sometimes, it can cost you your privacy.
