Assistance

This letter may come to you as a surprise due to the fact that we have Not yet met. I have to say that I have no intentions of causing you any Pains so I decided to contact you through this medium. I got your Contact through a personal search via the internet. As you read this, I don't want you to feel sorry for me, because, I Believe everyone will die someday.

My name is Jennifer Wilson I am a dying woman who have decided to donate What I have to you/ church/charity Organizations. I am 64 years old and I was diagnosed with esophageal Cancer for about 7 Years ago, immediately after the death of my husband who lived all his Life in America, who has left me everything he worked for.

I have not particularly lived my life so well, as I never really cared For anyone. Though I am very rich, I was never generous, I was always hostile to people and only focus on my self as that was the only thing I Cared for. But now I regret all this as I now know that there is more to life than just wanting to have or make all the money in the world. I Believe when God gives me a second chance to come to this world I would Live my life a different way from how I have lived it. Now that I know My time is near I have been touched by God to donate from what I have Inherited from my late husband for the good work of God, rather than Allow my relatives to use my husband hard earned funds ungodly.

So far, I have distributed money to some charity organizations in the U.A.E, London and Ireland. Now that my health has deteriorated so badly, I cannot do this my self any more. I once asked members of my family to Close one of my accounts and donate the money, which I have there to Charity organization in Bulgaria; they refused and kept the money to Themselves.

Hence, I do not trust them anymore, as they seem not to be contended With what I have left for them. The last of my money which is the huge Cash deposit that I have with Financial Firm Abroad .I will want you to Help me collect this deposit and dispatched it to charity organizations And let them know that it is me Jennifer Wilson that is making this Generous donation.

I am writing this from my laptop computer in my hospital bed where I wait for my time to come. I pray that God uses you to support and assist Me with good heart Please pray that the good Lord forgive me my sins. I have asked God to Forgive me and I believe he has because He is a merciful God. I will be Going in for an operation in less than few days. I decided to WILL/donate the money to you for the good work of the lord, And also to help the motherless and less privilege and also for the Assistance of the widows according to (JAMES 1:27).

I took this decision because I do not have any child that will inherit This money and my husband relatives are not inclined to helping poor Persons and I do not want my husband's hard earned money to be misused Or spent in the manner in which my late husband did not specify. At the moment I cannot take any telephone calls right now due to the Fact that my relatives are around me and my health status. I wish you All the best and May the good Lord bless you abundantly, and please use The funds well and always extend the good work to others.

NB: I will appreciate your utmost confidentiality in this matter until The task is accomplished as I don't want anything that will jeopardize My last wish. And Also I will be contacting with you by email as I don't Want my relation or anybody to know because they are always around me.

Regards,
Jennifer Wilson

Do’s and Don’ts for Safer Online Shopping

Great tips for staying safe when you shop online from Bank Info Security.

Do’s and Don’ts for Safer Online Shopping

Linda McGlasson, Managing Editor
BankInfoSecurity.com
December 14, 2007

Before you wrap up your holiday shopping, take a quick glance down this list of tips designed to protect you – and your customers – from identity theft.
Do …

Use a Credit Card instead of a Debit card - Using Credit cards enables you to dispute the charges if you don’t get the product that you purchased. With a debit card, you lose your money without dispute in case the deal turns sour.

Avoid wireless transactions- A fraudster in close proximity may sniff your personal information through a wireless connection. Teens and tweens are using sniffers, which can be found as freeware on the Internet

Ensure the Connection is Secure- Look for two signs on your connection browser to ensure a secure online purchase: the site address should read https or shttp instead of http, indicating a secure connection, and a small lock should appear in the browser toolbar at the bottom. Reputable online businesses offer additional protection for their customers such as “hacker safe” rating, “Google Checkout” or “PayPal Verified.”

Never use public computers- Never make online purchases while sitting in Internet cafes and libraries. It’s difficult to know who is keeping a watch on you physically or electronically. You can’t tell what software has been installed on a public computer to keep a track on your usage. Key logging software is insidious and can’t be detected.

Your homework -Getting feedback on the website you are planning to buy from is easy. You can read about the seller’s reputation from other buyers by looking for their comments online. Look for a “trust mark” from a reputable organization to make sure the online retailer is reliable and has a proven track record of satisfying customers.

Understand the “Privacy Policy” -Find and read the website’s privacy policy to understand what personal information is being requested as well as why and how it will be used. If the site doesn’t have a privacy policy, then consider any information you provide them to already be sold, especially when it comes to email address, phone number and mailing address.

Understand the Transaction Terms- Before you complete the transaction, carefully read the merchant’s policies concerning returns and refunds, shipping costs, and security and privacy protection.

Recognize Spam-! Beware of senders whose names you don’t recognize, and look for typos and misspellings in the subject line. Also, "too good to be true" prices are possible spam too! Don’t know how to spot a fake? Try spotting the fakes from the International AntiCounterfeting Coalition: http://www.iacc.org/gallery/index.php .

Don’t …

Give out Your Personal Information-Your date of birth and where you live are enough for someone to set up a credit card in your name! Trusted websites will restrict from asking personal details online for a transaction.

Shop At Sites You Don’t Trust- Shopping with websites of companies that you know and trust is the beginning of safe and hassle-free online shopping.

Respond To Unsolicited Email- Never confirm your billing information or your credit card information through an email -- because your information is probably not reaching a legitimate retailer. If you receive an email of this type, contact the company immediately.

Transact Unless You Are Sure a Site Is What It Claims To Be- Those genuine-looking websites may be fraud to lure you to give out your username and passwords. Look at the URL carefully and use a secure connection for your payment submission.

Forget To Review Your Monthly Credit Card And Bank Statements- You will be able to identify any errors or unauthorized purchases and also keep track of your account balance. In case of any disparity or unauthorized transactions, notify your card issuers immediately and call their customer service promptly.

Forget To Keep Records Of Your Online Transactions- You never know when you will need them for a refund or to file a dispute. All your transaction confirmation e-mails should be neatly organized in one folder for easy accessibility when needed.

Overlook Your System Security— Clean your computer with free online software that detects spyware, and install a firewall to ensure that sites you shop at don't install spyware on your computer.

New type of Phishing Attack Identified

Phishing for clicks, at my expense
posted by John Roberts on September 7th, 2007

Banks, credit unions, PayPal, eBay, Amazon, the IRS… all of these organizations suffer from phishing attacks on a regular basis. (Sad, but true.)

Yesterday morning, I personally received an example of a new (to me) category of phish: someone trying to get me to provide Yahoo credentials. Not my personal Yahoo credentials, but my “Sponsored Search” account, where I’d control my advertising spend with Yahoo Search Marketing…if I had an account!

I suppose the purpose was to steal my credentials and then have “me” schedule and pay for pay-per-click advertising on behalf of the criminal. Phishers keep following the money, even via more indirect routes.

In response to our report to them, Washington Mutual promptly responded with some great advice on dealing with suspicious and potentially fraudulent email. The response is targeted to WAMU customers, but the advice is great no matter with whom you bank.

For more information about phishing visit SecurePCNews.

Following is Washington Mutual's response:
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
We are aware of recent "phishing" scams targeting our customers. Most of the scams involve the use of fraudulent email messages which appear to be from your bank or another trusted business. The email may employ fraudulent Web sites to trick people into sharing personal financial information, such as account numbers, passwords, Social Security numbers and other data.

We would like to assure you that Washington Mutual was not compromised and we do not send email messages or make phone calls asking for your personal financial information.

When we learn of phishing scams, we work aggressively with law enforcement agencies to investigate them and shut down the fake Web sites. To do your part to keep your information safe, please remember
to:

- Be suspicious of emails with urgent requests for personal financial information.

Top 20 Hilarious and Creative Internet Scams

A SecurePCNews.com visitor passed us a blog posting that we just had to share with other visitors. Thanks A. Quinn.

Top 20 Hilarious and Creative Internet Scams
From VirtualHosting.com

If you’ve had an e-mail account for more than a couple of years, or even just a couple of months, you’ve probably received an e-mail hoax promising you the opportunity to make millions working from home, asking you to donate money to a fraudulent fund, or just passing along a fascinating (but false) story to elicit a widespread response from the public. While many, truly damaging scams are designed to covertly steal hundreds of thousands of dollars from innocent people, this list is mostly comprised of those hoaxes that are just downright ridiculous.

1. Lonelygirl15: One of the most popular Internet hoaxes in recent years, the lonelygirl15 teenager named Bree turned out to be nothing more than an actress named Jessica Rose. The YouTube sensation assuredly broke many lonely hearts who thought they shared a special connection with the web cam princess, the show is still going strong with an average of 70 million viewers, all of whom (hopefully) now know that lonelygirl15 isn’t real.
   
2. Disney Hoax: Could you imagine receiving a real live e-mail from Walt Disney, Jr. himself? Well, we couldn’t either, but enough people did to make this Disney hoax a real problem. The fraudluent e-mail claims to work with Bill Gates and Microsoft to try out a new e-mail tracing program. The e-mail asks people to forward the e-mail to as many people as possible, and “if it reaches 13,000 people, 1,300 of the people on the list will receive $5,000, and the rest will receive a free trip for two to Disney World for one week during the summer of 1999 at our expense.” We wish.
   
3. Show Your Bum Joke: According to Hoax-Slayer.com, this hoax “warns that a man supposedly conducting a survey may come to your door and ask to see your bum.” While this hoax is more of a spoof of a hoax, we just had to include it on our list.
   
4. Internet Wedding Scam: Irish and Scottish folk singer Marc Gunn posts on his website a warning for other musicians about the Internet Wedding scam. A person claiming to be a soon-to-be married man named Pitt Andre wanted to book Gunn’s band at their wedding. Agreeing to pay the 50% deposit upfront, the scammer instead sent a check for nearly double the amount, and then asked for a refund making up the difference. A couple of days later, the man e-mailed Gunn to tell him the wedding was off, and that he wanted all of the money back. According to Gunn, the first check “seemed to have cleared” after three days, and his group sent back the $2500. Of course, the original check inevitably bounced, leaving Gunn and his group “miserable…and $2500 poorer.”
   
5. Citibank Scam: This scam is pretty tricky. Online banking sites often promise tight security settings and password-protected account access, but even top companies aren’t immune to Internet scams. In 2003, the Citibank website was under siege from a scam artist that designed a pop-up, which “appears to be a Citibank page” and “comes up and asks you to verify your information,” which then “goes to a server in Russia that has nothing to do with Citibank.”
   
6. Nikki Leotardo: When the immensely popular HBO series The Sopranos planned its final episode during the summer of 2007, there was much speculation as to how America’s favorite mobsters would end their run on television. After the finale, viewers were left hanging, scratching their heads over what could have happened during the blackout from several suspicious characters looming over the Sopranos’ family dinner. A rumor started circulating on the Internet that the man standing at the counter was Nikki Leotardo, Phil’s nephew who had been on the show before and who could have been out to kill Tony. As it turns out, the whole thing was just a joke, and Sopranos fans are still left in the dark about how the show really ended.
   
7. Killer Bananas: In 2000, an Internet hoax about imported bananas containting flesh eating bacteria that “spread faster than the flu,” according to Kathy Means, vice-president of the Produce Marketing Association. Despite efforts to squash the rumor, people panicked, inciting investigative stories in the LA Times and from the Knight Ridder news service.
   
8. Neiman Marcus Cookie Hoax: Would you pay $250 for a cookie recipe? What if it came from Neiman Marcus? We hope that you answered no to both of those questions, but one woman claims to have been tricked into paying the absurd amount and then seeks revenge by sending the recipe out in an e-mail blast. As it turns out, Neiman Marcus never put its cookie recipe up for sale and now publishes the recipe on its website, free of charge of course.
   
9. Money-at-Home.com: How great would it be to manage your own company from home by turning your computer “into a money-making machine?” Unfortunately, the scammers are the only ones making money with this system. An e-mail invites people to send them money so that they can receive “instructions on where to go and what to download and install on your computer” so that you can run the business and start making lots of money. Even if the instructions actually come, you also have to give the scammers access to your PayPal account, where they can control your online funds.
   
10. Deodorant Causes Breast Cancer: Several years ago, a popular e-mail chain circulated the Internet claiming that antiperspirants caused breast cancer. Thankfully, experts debunked the ugly rumor, and women felt comfortable enough to continue using their deodorant.
