Dr @jasonnurse, a Reader in Cyber Security in our @UniKentComp and Institute of Cyber Security for Society, was on @itvmeridian on Wednesday evening, discussing how fake QR codes being used to scam people in car parks and why they are becoming so prevalent 🅿️ He said: "So, QR code scams are becoming so prevalent. Firstly because QR codes are so popular. They're used by restaurants, train companies and they're also used all across society. So criminals sort of see that, and they immediately think, "hey, we can capitalise on that" in the context of scams against people who don't really understand and can't tell easily whether something is actually fraudulent or not." #Scams #CyberSecurity #QRcodes #UniKent
