On Sun, Sep 01, 2013, Mord Behar wrote about Watch out for Bezeq: receipts and stuff. When I signed up I provided a username and a password. Which they then sent me to my email address in plaintext. So just a reminder: don't reuse passwords, and use a throw-away password for bezeq. This is a very important general advice, that has nothing to do with Bezeq - don't reuse passwords for different services. Remember the old adage - don't write passwords down? Forget you ever heard that piece of advice. It is a load of crock. Do use different a password for each service, and *do* write them down (on paper or on a computer file). If you do not write your passwords down, you'll be tempted to re-use a password that you already remember :( As an example of what can happen because of reusing passwords: Three years ago, some cracker broke into the gmail accounts of thousands of Israelis. How? He broke into the web-site of some Israeli pizza chain, and stole their password files. People who created an account on that site (for ordering pizzas) were ask to supply their email address, and also a new username and password, and the cracker now had all of those. All he had to do next is to go to each gmail account on that email address list, and try the password given to the pizza site. Next, he went to Facebook, and tried his luck with the same username and password. For a large percentage of the idiots^H^H^H^H^H^Husers, the password was the same password used for the gmail/facebook account.
