You are receiving this message because we are looking for just fifty individuals who want to find out how they can take advantage of today's connected world while enjoying more freedom and less stress.

We're inviting this small group to be the first founder members of a brand new club. Perhaps you (or somebody you know) may wish to be one of this exclusive group.

Let us start by asking you a question: How much do you know about, or even think or care about... what happens with your data, your virtual identity, either with or without your permission?

If you're like the overwhelming majority of the population, the answer will be, "Practically zero!" If that's you, you're not alone.

Here’s a hard truth. We didn’t all grow up with the Internet, and everything is changing so fast that it honestly feels like we can’t keep up.. So, when it comes to those areas of our lives that we live in cyberspace, well isn’t it easier just to ignore it?

The fact is, most of us are just blissfully going about our daily lives, enjoying the convenience of the connected world, freely sharing our information with social media platforms, retailers, and software providers. But how many of us ever look at the details of the terms and conditions we’re agreeing to? And do we ever wonder who else might get access to our data?

Welcome to the world of cyber security: It's a term that large organisations know all too well, some having whole departments dedicated to keeping control over their data... but when it comes to the rest of us, almost nobody gives it a moment's thought... and that's a problem.

Most of us are just blissfully going about our daily lives, enjoying the convenience of the connected world, freely setting up accounts and sharing our information with social media platforms, retailers, and software providers.

But cyber crime really can impact every one of us... and the consequences can be severe.

• Many of us have wondered about how many of our conversations “smart” home assistants like Alexa listen to... But did you know criminals can hack these devices to groom kids in their own bedrooms? And what about other smart devices, from doorbells to fridges and even cars?
• We might joke when our phones seem to listen to our conversations and share that info so that we get scarily accurate targeted ads... But how far can that information be shared, and should we care?
• Millions of us have even volunteered samples of our DNA to companies like 23andme or Ancestry. Do you know what the potential implications could be, or what those companies could (quite legally) do with that information?

Are you concerned that hackers, scammers, criminals, and other groups might find out your private information? Or what they can do with it once they have it?

Most of us simply have no idea how much detail about our lives is “out there” on the net, who can access it, or what they might do with it.

It seems like there’s just too much to keep up with, so we stick our heads in the sand, and hope that the worst will never happen to us.

But it is happening, to a lot of us!

Identity fraud is now one of the UK’s fastest growing crimes. In the UK it is estimated that 24% of us may have already been impacted, with some victims losing large sums of money as well as months of stress to recover compromised accounts.

And it's not just direct financial losses, but the other costs to your time, stress, and sanity. Identity fraud can leave you with a ruined credit rating, and some people have even ended up with criminal records, which can take years of effort (and grief) to repair.

What's more, it's thought that a staggering 75% of Brits have been exposed to online scams.

But even that isn’t the worst — it’s very far from it! Cyber crime doesn’t just target our money. A staggering 8 million children are reported missing around the world each year (and that's a conservative estimate), and many of those kids are targeted and groomed using social media.

There is no question that cyber crime applies to every one of us, but the real question we should be asking is, how concerned should we be? And the answer may actually surprise you.

On one hand, unfortunately in many ways the majority of us should be far more concerned, and we absolutely should take far more responsibility.

But on the other hand, protecting our individual interests and our personal security is not actually that hard or complicated... Once you get yourself informed.

The problem is, most people just don’t want to get informed. It seems like too much to think about, so we just choose ignorance.

But it isn’t going to go away! Because every year we’re doing more online. More shopping, more communication, more banking, more business, more social life, even finding romantic partners online! We are becoming more and more dependent on the net, but are we taking more care to protect ourselves?

But there is also good news. You don’t have to give up your personal data or your freedom! You absolutely can reclaim control of your own info. And it really isn’t that hard!

And let’s face it, sticking your head in the sand also comes at a great cost. Because there’s always that worry in the back of your mind.

You'll be amazed at how empowering it feels to face your fears and take control of your own information! There's a real sense of confidence in knowing how you can go about your life more protected from the prying eyes of criminals... and whoever else might be watching!

Of course we’re not saying you need to become an elite hacker and try to make yourself completely invisible! (That is possible, of course, but for most of us it’s a step too far.)

All you really is three things...

• First, decide what your own individual appetite is for data security risk, in a range of areas. For example, is protecting your money critical? Protecting your kids? Your business tools? Or what about your messages and social activity? Now the answers to these questions should vary from person to person, because we are all different!
• The second critical step is to get informed about the actual threats and dangers. Every activity can have its own level of security risk, it’s just that most of us don’t know what they are. (This is true in daily life too.. We take a calculated risk any time we drive a car or go for a night out.)
• Finally, if the level of actual risk doesn’t match your personal risk profile, you can find out what steps you need to take to remedy the situation... And that might sound tricky, but it’s far easier than you think.

And it’s why we created Cyber Freedom Club... to help you discover what you need to know, and what you need to do!
