Free Wi-Fi is everywhere. You see it in coffee shops, airports, hotels, and even grocery stores. It’s easy to connect and tempting to use, especially when you want to save on your data plan. But there’s a hidden risk. Many of these free Wi-Fi spots are prime targets for identity theft. Hackers love public networks because they’re often unsecured. If you’re not careful, you could hand over your personal information without even knowing it. Here’s why you should care: Identity theft can drain your bank account, ruin your credit, and take years to fix.
