Free Dating Sites are Safe from Hackers unless You are a Big Name
Online singles often complaint about that their accounts been compromised. Even the biggest free dating sites www.pof.com has been the victim of this as their critical user information has been stolen from their secure servers. This was news and a matter of concerns for all the players in the online dating industry in 2011 as CEO of POF Markus Frind gave this shocking news.
But, normally free dating sites are not the prime target of hackers whose first intention is to get the financial benefit from a hacked website. They get an increased benefit from directly stealing the credit card information or by stealing the vital and important user information which is worth millions of dollars.
One cannot avoid such attacks on their websites as this is going to happen if you are a big brand online which is what happened in the case of free dating sites www.pof.com. However the big question is who would have got the indirect benefit from this attack? The first thing that comes to any one’s mind would a business competitor. However, there are cases where websites have been hacked and data has been stolen just for fun or to test the skills of the hackers.
Currently the most happening things on the web are social networking and free dating sites. This is why no one can deny the fact that those two are the hacker’s paradise. Now the time has come for some the big name to create something like an anti-hacking cell that can monitor these kinds of attacks and prevent these hackers from stealing valuable information. Profile information is very sensitive and the bread and butter of any online dating sites and if a user starts feeling that their information is not safe online they would not fill out their complete profile which is again a set back for these free dating sites.
Comment on this article and let us know what you feel about this kind of hacking incidents and the stealing of users private information.

I have a lot to offer as a companion, as I am a very loving person that enjoy giving and receiving attention & affection. I am a honest and fair person. I love to laugh and I believe laughter is good for our souls! I’m looking for someone who is sweet & kind, I’m looking for a best friend & a lifetime partner. I like to travel & see new places or neat things. On a nice day you can usually find me working in the yard, planting flowers, landscaping, or doing something around my home. I enjoy music and will never pass up a slow dance with that special someone! Cooking is a favorite pastime of mine but I also enjoy dining out. Family is very important to me and I hope it is to you also..I am looking for someone who wants to be a team…2 is always better than 1! There are many other things I enjoy… fishing, camping, bike rides, quiet evenings, movies, cookouts, swimming, yard sales, and much more. I don’t have any children…however, not by choice. As I said …looking for love, not for looks. However, there must be an attraction for there to be a fire, being a kind person, I find, is attractive also. Any questions…just ask!
I am woman who has my faith as my foundation,my patience and giving self as the building blocks, and, as I have been told… a heart as big as Texas. I wish to love someone for the rest of my life. To wake up with him by my side, knowing that no matter what happens…I’ll be able to have his loving arms to come home to. To share everything with him.To talk to him about our own ideas, our dreams,the little things that make us laugh.. and the not so little things that we can’t help worrying about. I want to give him my love…a pure love -as a place that he can come to for acceptance or the simple comfort that silence brings when words left unspoken can still be understood. I want to grow old with him, to watch our life unfold, our dreams, one by one, to become our reality.I’m looking for someone who has a good sense of humor, is easy going, has a positive outlook, is open-minded and mature. I would describe myself as kind, thoughtful and compassionate. I was extremely shy when I was a little girl which I think has often resulted in some people mistakenly thinking I’m snobbish or aloof; now I’m just a little reserved until I get to know someone. I’m not a drama queen or a whiner. I like to laugh and I like to think my kids keep me young. I enjoy good books, movies and like to cook and bake. I enjoy nature and the outdoors but am not really athletic. I love music (pop and country, some stuff from other genres) and the arts in general. I tend to lead a fairly quiet life. I would prefer to snuggle on the couch with someone I care about than go to an amusement park (don’t really like crowds)
