Hacking usually involves your computer being taken over via Trojan software that was hidden inside another program you downloaded. It records your passwords and your credit card number when you buy things online and sends them to the hacker, so they can steal from you. But for the latest hacks, scammers don't wait for you to visit a dodgy website so they can cram your computer with viruses. Now they target your phone and your webcam or even try to steal the data from your passport while it's still in your pocket. You might even get phone calls aimed at nabbing your mobile phone or bank details.
