Credit cards and paypal accounts can be hacked and money transactions can be traced.

Most "hacked" accounts are the result of social engineering... Persuade someone to install a rogue program on their computer, and you'll be able to capture every keystroke they make... Visit their social networking sites to extract clues to passwords or password reminders... People just need to be more wary of how easy it is to give away access to accounts...

It's just (should be) common knowledge... You don't let a stranger in to your house because they tell you they're not going to burgle you, it's because you don't know them and you don't trust them... They need to earn your trust... But on the internet, people are too easily fooled in to trusting a scam because it sounds plausible, software because it tells you it found something on your computer etc. I can't blow raspberries yet... :-p
