The FBI has issued a warning to smartphone users to be cautious when using public Wi-Fi or charging ports to avoid cyber-crime attacks. Users are advised to avoid conducting sensitive transactions on public Wi-Fi networks and to limit their activity or use a VPN app. Additionally, the FBI warns against using free charging stations in public places, as bad actors can use public USB ports to introduce malware and monitoring software onto devices. Users are advised to carry their own charger and USB cord and use an electrical outlet instead.
