What do you mean nobody's safe from this one? If you don't have a webcam, your safe, or I guess out of luck if you want to get "Clickjacked"...

As the internet grows, so too the appearance of new jargons like clickjack etc...

Hackers are smarter than security experts and that is the reason for hijacking of your confidential data.
