Social events that involve card-sending and online gift shopping are magnets for cybercriminals and spammers. Here's SearchSecurityAsia's simple guide to keeping Cupid's would-be targets safe and secure on the Internet.

With Valentine’s Day looming and people increasingly using online match-making or social networking sites to find their perfect partner, the amorous are advised in this guide not to rely on static passwords alone to protect their identity when accessing a site, and to be careful about how much information they divulge about themselves to strangers online. What tools can we use to protect ourselves?

Also, look out for the top 10 Valentine's Day email subject headers. Don't get caught clicking on the wrong messages, or you may fall victim to scam, spam, phishing or pharming - which makes up part of the $276 million underground economy.

Will cyberspace capture more than your heart this Valentine's Day? Download this fast guide now!
