have the ability to recognize when we are the target.
You only know that your PC is infected with a virus or malware after the PC starts to behave abnormally.
You can not always recognize when you are a target, every person browsing the internet day by day are at risk of getting under the scammer's feet, all internet users are automatically a target to scammers, have this in your mind and know peace.
Just don't do anything stupid, like clicking on random links online, visiting fake or malicious websites, anyone could fall for this even when they are very cautious.
