Who are we? We’re iLookBothWays, a blog specialising in online scams and security. Our mission is simple: to inform our readers about the dangers of the internet and to make the internet a safer place for everyone.

The internet can be an incredibly useful resource. We use it for all sorts of things, from communication and shopping, to work and leisure. Many of us can’t get by without it since we rely on it so much. That’s why we’ve set up our blog. We know that the internet is a vital tool for countless people and we think it’s very important that people know how to use it safely.

Unfortunately, there are a lot of people out there who will try to commit crimes over the internet. Things like fraud, hacking and thefts do happen, sometimes on a small scale, sometimes on a large scale. The good news is that security software and technology companies are constantly working hard to come up with solutions that keep people protected. It’s a battle that’s continuously being fought.

What we don’t want is for our readers to feel scared and be put off going online. Even though crime does take place online, the internet is still very safe, generally speaking. Whenever you surf the web, the chances of something untoward happening are very slim. However, it always helps to know what to look out for and how to tell if something’s dodgy. So long as you stay clear of anything that looks suspicious or has a bad reputation, you’ll minimise your chances of something going wrong.

We know a thing or two about staying safe online. Whatever type of device you use to go online, whether it’s a home computer, a smartphone or something else – or even all of them – we want you to be safe. What we want to do with our blog is to promote sensible and responsible online activity. We want to make people aware of what goes on and reassure them that work is being done to protect them.

Thankfully, it’s very easy to stay safe online. You don’t need to download tons of software programs or constantly read up on complicated online security systems. All you need is some common sense. Keep reading our blog and we’ll share some useful information about different online dangers and how they can be avoided. Stick with us to make your online experiences much safer, more secure and more reliable. We’ll do our best to make the internet safer for you.
