Most Kenyans love free things like Free-Wifi. Before you connect to a Free-Wifi, think about the information you're giving away.
1. Your device name and type
2. Serial number which is unique to every device out there
3. The manufacturer
4. Operating and file system information
5. And electronic chip ID which is also unique to each and every device ever manufactured.
This is a lot of information to give away in the name of Free-Wifi. If it lands in the hands of someone who knows what he/she is doing, they can gain access to your phone via WiFi. Listen to any form of communication you are making.
They can also hold your phone or pc hostage and ask or demand for ransom.
