There's 10's of 1000's of attacks every day... denial of service attacks - hacking attempts... The only thing you can really do is to be vigilant. Don't log in to your sensitive accounts from "free" wifi sites... or public wifi sites... Change your account passwords every so often. And never go to a website from an email no matter how real it looks. I go to the website from on my own if I get an email like that regardless of the question or information in the email. If it's real the same info will be on the real website... but I never use the link included in the email.
