Attention! Nigeria security services are HACKING Biafran activists email, facebook, etc - OEAS warns

Attention! Nigeria security services are HACKING Biafran activists email, facebook, etc - OEAS warns 
The Organization of Emerging African States (OEAS), has warned that the Nigerian government has setup a hacking unit within its secret security apparatus to harvest information from Biafran activist and to disinform the public. In a press release made available to The Biafran, the OEAS warned Biafrans to be on the alert. Read details of the alert below.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
May 7, 2015
The Nigerian State Security Service (SSS) has launched an aggressive campaign against Biafran activists using both Internet and email. SSS has not only been actively harvesting names and email addresses of know Biafran activists but has duplicated and hijacked email accounts.

The State Security Service’s aim is to infiltrate and provide disinformation to and about Biafran independence activists. OEAS has documented hijacked email accounts and duplicate email accounts amounting to identity theft. These compromised accounts are then emptied out of information and used to entrap others, send false information and computer viruses, and transmit scandalous, obscene, and fraudulent information in the name of Biafra to discredit and demoralize the movement. 

This mirrors malware tactics used against Tibetan independence activists for years and attributed to the Chinese People’s Liberation Army intelligence unit. China is a major supplier of arms and technology to the Nigerian armed forces and SSS.

Beware Attachments - Share documents, but don't email them. Opening email attachments is like letting a hacker into your computer. Instead, use easy file-sharing services like DropBox to share sensitive documents.

Alert! Biafra Union Of Ijaw Page outed as a DSS Facebook page used to entrap Biafrans


Think Before You Click - Don't just click on any old link you receive. Unless you were expecting it, there's a strong chance that the link contains a virus that will infect your computer as soon as you open it.
HTTPS is for Secret - Safe - Secure! - When you are using the web, look at the website address in your browser to see if there is an 'S' in at the beginning, after HTTP. If you see it, there is a secure connection between you and the website. If you don't see it, everything you are looking at or emailing to someone else can be spied on very easily.
Use Strong Passwords - Strong passwords can keep you safer online. Make them long, complex, unique, with special characters and change them often — and never, ever set an account to automatically log in or store your password.
Update your Software - Updates to your programs and operating systems are essential in order to patch security vulnerabilities. Use an email virus checker program like Avast.
