Thanks for this info. Hackers use lots of techniques to gain access to ones account. But I think they target bank accounts more because of the money involved.

Diamond bank and some Nigerian banks recently issues warnings to their customers to disregard Fraudulent messages, emails in circulation in Nigeria.

The bank went ahead to give samples of banking fraudulent messages used by 419 in Nigeria to defraud unsuspecting individuals.

The samples of such fraudulent messages and emails have been compiled by Mobile Banking Watch, a nigerian blog about mobile banking security, and some of the mobile banking security tips to take while banking on your mobile devices

How would you feel when you try logging into your e-mail address and you get a feedback saying ''incorrect username or password combination'' even when you are very sure you typed in the correct details? *Panicky right?* . Well lets leave that out for now and go into the detailed tutorial of how hackers can hack your e-mail address.

Methods Used In Hacking Email Address

*Bruteforcing:
bruteforce is the automated system of a hacker with the right tools and the knowledge in place trying random passwords against a huge password lists to see the one that will match your password.

*Guessing:
guessing is a very common way by which hackers tends to get your password. They can guess your pasword by using.
-Your phone number
-Date of birth
-Place of birth
and so many details about you...

*Phishing:
is a form of fraud in which the attacker tries to learn information such as login credentials or account information by masquerading as a reputable entity or person in email, IM or other communication channels.

There are other methods of getting passwords but i can't list them all here, so now lets go to how we can prevent this from happening.

securing Your Email Address From HacKers
1. Use Very strong password. Instead of using something like this naijacoders123 use this
#%#NaiJAc0d3rs*+= this alone can crack down any hacker. you can even add spaces between your passwords.

You can generate a strong password via NCT PASSWORD GENERATOR

Protecting from Phishing
Never follow any link asking you to update your personal details, if necessary contact your email service provider to be sure you are on the right path. Most of this evil links are always in Spam Folder if need be you need to visit the spam folder ignore any message asking you to update your details then directing you to an external link looking exactly like your email login.

Seriously if you can gently follow those tips listed above am very sure you are 99.9% secured as you are protected from PHISHING and bruteforce Attack which are the widely used method of getting unauthorized access to people's e-mail accounts.

One more tip is avoid using the same password for the same accounts on the internet.
E.g dont use the same password you used in registering for http://nct.com.ng on http://facebook.com, am saying this because if the attacker manage to get access to your facebook account he won't use the same password to login to your other online account.

Stay Protected. Proudly Naija Coders

The Problems with Free Blogs
As a blogger, you have the option of setting up a blog for free on a variety of websites. This sounds like a great idea in theory, but there are some huge downsides to using a free blog site:

Problem #1: “Free” is not free
Although it may seem strange, free blog sites exist to make money for the company offering you the “free” blog. They don’t give you a blog space because they like you. Instead, they make money off of the time and hard work you invest in writing your blog. This is done in a couple of ways:

They sell your ad space
Free blog sites will put advertisements on your blog. You have absolutely no control over what is being advertised on your blog and you will not see a single penny of the money they receive from selling this ad space.

They sell you “upgrades”
Signing-up for one of these services may be free, but you will quickly realize that to make any significant changes to your blog you will have to pay.
Want to change your blog design? $50.
Want your own domain name? $20 per year.

Problem #2: No profit
The goal of free blog sites is to make money for the company offering the blog space, not for you. This means that you are not allowed to sell products or services through your free blog.
In addition, the company offering you the free blog makes all the profit from selling ad space on your blog. As you will see in the step-by-step tutorial, selling ad space is a major source of revenue for most blogs, and it is something that is just not possible with a free blog.

Problem #3: No control
When you start your blog on a free website you are essentially renting your blog space. Because of this, the landlord is the one who has all the power. If they decide to close their doors on you for any reason, then there is absolutely nothing you can do about it since you don’t actually own the blog.
To make matters worse, free blog sites don’t give you access to the full range of features that you need in order to become a successful blogger. In the step-by-step guide on this site I show you some cool tips and tricks you can use to optimize your blog. Unfortunately, many of these things simply can’t be done on a free blog site.

Problem #4: Poor security
The reality of the internet is that sometimes sites get hacked. Yes, this even happens to new, smaller blogs. If this happens to you, and you are using a free blog provider, the hacker can steal your domain name, which means that you will lose your entire site and may never get it back.

In short, I recommend that you stay far, far away from free blogging sites. It just isn’t worth the headache or risk, no matter what type of blog you are starting.
The good news is that paying for your own blog can prevent all of these issues, and it isn’t expensive. In fact, it is cheaper than a “free” blog because there aren’t any hidden fees.

SEO is important!!! Read and gain something

Lets know your view about it!!!

if you dey Lagos abeg make we connect make I bring two bags of nails.
buhari don buy market.

Eyaaaa... I no dey Lagos, na BIAFRA i dey!!!
Dem dey find belle wey go test am via http://nct.com.ng/Thread-You-Can-Lie-On-A-Nail-Bed-Scientific-Prove
I just hope they quickly see one, go donate your nails to http://www.nct.com.ng/ Am sure they will appreciate it

This is actually funny or may sound funny but science is a crazy thing and that's why am not so surprised.

Have you heard aboutsomeone lying on a bed of nails?
It's not magic.

It's science and I'll show you about it here.

How nails work
Look closely at a nail and you'll see it has a sharp point at one end and a big flat head at the other. Thumbtacks (drawing pins) are just the same.

The two different ends of a nail are designed to make the force you apply have a bigger effect.

When you hit a nail with a hammer, you apply a certain amount of force to the bigger end.
At this end of the nail, your hammering force is working over quite a large area. That same force travels down the nail to the opposite end. Here, the nail comes to a very sharp point. So the same force is now acting over a much smaller area. The effect a pushing force has on something is called its pressure.

The pressure of a force is the size of that force divided by the area over which it pushes. If the same force presses at both ends of the nail, but one end (the sharp end) is much smaller than the other, the pressure at that end is much greater.

So a nail or drawing pin actually increases the pressure of your pushing force. That makes it easier for the nail or pin to enter the wall.

Working together, the flat end and sharp point of a drawing pin can magnify the pressure you apply by over 100 times.

How does a bed of nails work?
A bed of nails is made of several thousand nails hammered through a large wooden board. All the nails are extremely sharp. If you tried to stand or lie on just one nail, and you could balance on it without falling off, the nail would pierce your skin instantly and hurt you very badly.

You might think thousands of nails would do thousands of times more damage—but you'd be wrong!

Think about the forces that are involved when you lie across a bed of nails. There's your weight, which pulls you downwards because of gravity. The only thing supporting your body is the nails. So your weight must push down on the nails.

Since your body doesn't go anywhere, there has to be another force keeping it still. It turns out that the nails push up on you with the same force as your weight pushing down.

Your weight pushes down not on one nail but on several thousand. So the force acting on each nail is your weight divided by several thousand. Suppose a person weighs about 70 kg and lies down on 3500 nails.

The average weight on each nail is about 20 grams—roughly the same as a pen. A weight of 20 grams is just not enough to push the nail through someone's flesh.
That's why it's safe to lie down.
What does this tell us about normal beds?

If for "nails" you read "springs," you'll see straight away why a bed with many springs is more comfortable than one with fewer: your weight is more evenly distributed over more supporting points so the force acting on each part of your body is less.

You feel more comfortable and you sleep better.

This are the codes you need to create a working Shoutbox

The HTML
Let’s start with index.html. It is a regular HTML5 document, which includes our JavaScript libraries, scripts and stylesheets. Here are the parts relevant to the shoutbox:

index.html
Code:
<divclass="shoutbox"><h1>Shout box <imgsrc='./assets/img/refresh.png'/></h1><ulclass="shoutbox-content"></ul><divclass="shoutbox-form"><h2>Write a message <span>×</span></h2><formaction="./publish.php"method="post"><labelfor="shoutbox-name">nickname </label><inputtype="text"id="shoutbox-name"name="name"/><labelclass="shoutbox-comment-label"for="shoutbox-comment">message </label><textareaid="shoutbox-comment"name="comment"maxlength='240'></textarea><inputtype="submit"value="Shout!"/></form></div></div>

With JavaScript we will insert the published shouts into the <ul> element. The form is hidden by default, and only revealed when the “Write a message” header is clicked.

The JavaScript Code
And here is our script.js, which makes the above HTML work:

assets/js/script.js
Code:
$(function(){
// Storing some elements in variables for a cleaner code basevar refreshButton = $('h1 img'),
shoutboxForm = $('.shoutbox-form'),
form = shoutboxForm.find('form'),
closeForm = shoutboxForm.find('h2 span'),
nameElement = form.find('#shoutbox- name'),
commentElement = form.find('#shoutbox-comment'),
ul = $('ul.shoutbox-content');
// Replace with emoji icons: emojione.ascii = true;
// Load the comments. load();
// On form submit, if everything is filled in, publish the shout to the databasevar canPostComment = true;
form.submit(function(e){
e.preventDefault();
if(!canPostComment) return;
var name = nameElement.val().trim();
var comment = commentElement.val().trim();
if(name.length && comment.length && comment.length < 240) {
publish(name, comment);
// Prevent new shouts from being published canPostComment = false;
// Allow a new comment to be posted after 5 seconds setTimeout(function(){
canPostComment = true;
}, 5000);
}
});
// Toggle the visibility of the form.
shoutboxForm.on('click', 'h2', function(e){
if(form.is(':visible')) {
formClose();
}
else {
formOpen();
}
});
// Clicking on the REPLY button writes the name of the person you want to reply to into the textbox.
ul.on('click', '.shoutbox-comment- reply', function(e){
var replyName = $(this).data('name');
formOpen();
commentElement.val('@'+replyName+' ').focus();
});
// Clicking the refresh button will force the load functionvar canReload = true;
refreshButton.click(function(){
if(!canReload) returnfalse;
load();
canReload = false;
// Allow additional reloads after 2 seconds setTimeout(function(){
canReload = true;
}, 2000);
});
// Automatically refresh the shouts every 20 seconds setInterval(load,20000);
functionformOpen(){
if(form.is(':visible')) return;
form.slideDown();
closeForm.fadeIn();
}
functionformClose(){
if(!form.is(':visible')) return;
form.slideUp();
closeForm.fadeOut();
}
// Store the shout in the databasefunctionpublish(name,comment){
$.post('publish.php', {name: name, comment: comment}, function(){
nameElement.val("";
commentElement.val("";
load();
});
}
// Fetch the latest shoutsfunctionload(){
$.getJSON('./load.php', function(data) {

});
}
// Render an array of shouts as HTMLfunctionappendComments(data) {

Webdesign Mistakes To Be Avoided

Website designing requires lot of creativity and following a set of predefined guidelines. The designer has to undergo a number of phases carefully as a single mistake can prove to be extremely costly at times.

Working under the pressure to address the expectations of their clients and designing the website for extremely impatient visitors can often be difficult for the designer to handle. Under these circumstances they are tend to make mistakes and often silly ones. You might have seen some errors that go live on the websites.

There is a list of mistakes that web designers often commit leading to some unexpected and dramatic results. What are those web design mistakes that every designer should avoid to deliver a neat and clean and user-friendly website?

Have a look:

Insufficient Collaboration with Client

Having an adequate and complete understanding of the client’s objective for developing website is of utmost importance. In the preliminary stage it is discussed with the client to understand his/her concept and what is expected from the website. Being a collaborative process it may loop in marketing team, content writer and developer. It’s time for the developer to discuss every point with every person involved to create robust and professional website. Committing the mistake of having insufficient discussion may result in disastrous outcome.

Unaware of Target Audience

Identifying target audience before creating the website is vital or else designing the right website as per expectations is next to impossible. Often designer avoid going so deep to understand this aspect. Conducting rigorous research work to define target audience is quite hectic and tiresome; hence it is often avoided by designers. But it is imperative, as when you know who the audience is you can strategize your work perfectly.

[b]Winding Up Task in Hurry[b]

Completing the task quickly cannot yield desired results. When the designer is under pressure to complete the task in limited or no time, chances are the result will be error-riddled. Offer sufficient time to the designer to understand, plan and implement things required. Give sufficient time to your designer after duly considering the amount of time it may take to complete the project.
Losing Focus on Latest Trends
Engrossed with own work is good but not at the cost of not updating yourself with the latest developments in the field. It may often cost you dearly. Maintaining the creativeness, the designer also needs to update themselves with the latest technology developments in the market. The thumb rule is keeping abreast with the latest market trends and start thinking in harmony with it. The designer needs to stimulate the ideas in sync with the paradigm shifts. It is a great way to craft some user-friendly and trendy websites.

Slow Page Loading Speed
In this fast-paced life users cannot wait few minutes to browse any website. It must load within seconds. Irrespective of the brilliant and highly functional design and useful information you are offering to your visitors, if the website takes time to load it cannot be successful. Designers must work in this direction to make it load within seconds.

Developing Websites for Search Engines
Although it is a fact that search engines crawl websites and improve its search ranking but it is humans who read it. Designing website keeping in view the search engines is fine but it should not be limited to search engines only. Make it 100% SEO friendly but without forgetting the users.

Why JavaScript is one of the top popular Programming Languages?
.
Hello friends, am here to give a shot introduction on JavaScript; Why is it the top popular programming language.
JavaScript is Server side programming language, very simple, easy to work used to develop web pages. You can display an alert, prompt box, form, interface, etc all with JavaScript. It uses .html extension and easy to run on any browser. You can learn JS even on your mobile phone without using computer. Most hosts accepts JS either paid free, on the other hand you must have even a little knowledge on HTML and CSS before jumping to JavaScript.
.
Most Programmers and developers uses JS, HTML and CSS as front-end and PHP and any other language as the back-end. On my own view, when you want to start learning I suggested you JS before jumping to any language, but note that HTML is not a programming language, I wrote an article about this last week.. You can read that via http://nct.com.ng/Thread-Why-HTML-is-not-a-programming-language
