Social Networking More Important To Indians Than Money

You read that right, nearly 75% of Indians are more concerned about their social networking account getting hacked as opposed to their personal information getting stolen or their credit card being misused.
A survey conducted by Microsoft India on their Windows And Me Facebook page with over 2,07,000 fans revealed this information. The survey was aimed at understanding the online security needs of Indian consumers.
Other findings of the survey were
*. one fourth of Indians had been a victim of cyber crime
*. over 90 per cent Indians realize the importance of Anti-viruses
*. 62 percent of Indians feel that their job is done once they install an anti-virus on their PC
The very low figure of just 5% of Indians being worried about their credit card info being stolenindicates that even though ecommerce sites are flooding theIndian internet market, very few Indians actually use their credit cards online.
What would you be more concerned valuable to you, your social networking account, your personal info or your credit card?
