Security measures

[keelmer]

Can someone please shed light on how to carefully cover your tracks when doing biz on theses forums.

Some of my questions are:
1. is using a public wifi a good idea.
2. Is using icq safe or should another irc application be used
3. What other basic security measures should be taken

Thanks in advance to responses. My main concern is how someone can anonymous.
Also, what mistakes can cause someone to get caught.(other than being caught in a store or for something stupid)?

first thing's first, get a vpn
that will solve 70% of the problems
then try to use jabber, then get OTR for icq/jabber, use only exchangers, dont receive wus from persons you have not made any deals before, dont give your phone number to all of ur clients

common sense

Thanks. My concern is mostly on buying. How can someone buy anonymously from vendors.

Buy O&O Safe Erase or another program that permanently deletes all traces from browsing on your pc. Set Erase standard to highest security.
