at the risk of picking up a virus, or worst still downloading a sneaky backdoor
virus that will not only push out spam but collect all your personal data.
Identity theft is on the increase, so take precautons, becuase trying to recovery
you after your identity has been stolen, will take all your time and effort, so
make sure your Pc is updated with all the latest patches.
Use a reputable Firewall and Virus protection.
When using email, wether via the web or Outlook express, Thunderbird etc, do
not open links, photos, or any attachments form people you know until you are
satisfied it is genuine.
The criminals send out thousand of emails, they only need to catch one in
every thousand to make their scheme profitable.
If you think you have been scammed, unplug the Pc from the internet and
contact me.
The most recent way of getting money from people is to ring your home phone,
telling you your computer has been compromised. They will try and convince
you by telling you to go the the computer and enter several commands which
will purport to show that your pc is infected, when in fact it is not. DO NOT
listen to them hang up.
Another scam is from the criminals to tell you that they are Dc (someone) from
your local police force and that your bank account has been illegaly got at in
some way. They state they will be freezing the account today, but you still have
time to withdraw all your cash and deposit it into a special account already set
up for you, they give you the details, then they ask you to tranfer the cash
Asap, and they they will later collect your credit cards for safe keeping.
THIS IS A SCAM...do not listen to them, ring the police asap and report it.
