People were honest

I got this strange reaction on my blog :

Yeah I know what you mean , being around today is all together then it was when I was younger. I reckon that our grand parents didn't really even think about this , technology as we know it from many angles helps change things for both the good and the bad. You know I have an old school point of view , however I recall when people used to work hard . People were honest , you could trust if your kids were outside by themselves they were safe , and things weren't as costly. I recon costs are always going to go up , but you know I don't know why why we can't go back to the time when folks cared for one another and actually knew what their neighbors names were . I guess that is a thing of the past , but you know its a great day to be alive , so I suppose I otta just keep moving forward.


What on earth is he talking about?

Legal advice anybody?

I got the following spam message in my mailbox :

help! i need some legal advice on custody / child support / divorce !!!!? Ok-I recently left my husband. We have 1 child together and 1 on the way. My husband still lives down south, and I moved to delaware (with the child). In delaware, my husband is considered a repeat offender and has several felony charges and is also a known drug user. Currently, he is not on drugs however. He doesn't have a car or a place of his own, and never stays at the same job too long.I am trying to work things out with him where we don't have to go through the courts, but he is being an ahole. He sends me all kinds of emails about how he's going to make sure I don't get any help from welfare, and how I can't make him pay child support b/c were married, and how he's going to get the kids.

I have several questions-If we r married but living in seperate states n he isn't supporting his child, can I get child support? What about help through welfare?
Is it possible that a judge would grant him even JOINT custody? With his record? He was put in jail for a few months for assault on a pregnant female (me) but was never convicted b/c I didn't show at court and would the judge still look at that? We were married in SC- can I file for legal separation in delaware, or do I have to travel all the way to SC? What are my options in this case? Are there lawyers out there that I can consult about this for free? What is the best thing for me to do in this situation? When I was 7 months pregnant he broke my cheekbone and I needed stitches in my ear. The state presses charges but were unable to prosecute b/c I didn't show. I didn't go to court b/c #1 I was all the way in SC and wasn't legally able to drive through virginia (suspended license) to delware, I had a job, and also b/c I was very young and stupid and let him convince me that he was sorry. He doesn't have a car (b/c he sold the few he had to get drugs) and he shares an apartment w/ 3 other guys¦..he can't keep a job. He is very unresponsible and has several 1st degree robbery charges as well as possession charges. I don't think he is fit to be a parent

Opgelet voor valse facturen!

Ik kreeg het volgende bericht via mijn bank: een gewaarschuwd mens is er twee waard!

Sinds kort onderscheppen fraudeurs bepaalde facturen die via de Post worden verstuurd. Vervolgens brengen ze hierop een zelfklever aan met de melding "nieuw rekeningnummer" of vervalsen ze het rekeningnummer via een scan. Daarna wordt de factuur naar de geadresseerde doorgestuurd.

Hoe kunt u zich beschermen?
- Wees altijd uiterst waakzaam! Zijn er aanpassingen aan de factuurgegevens, neem dan eerst contact op met de afzender alvorens deze te betalen.
- Bewaar steeds de gegevens van de leveranciers en hun bankrekeningnummer.

Hoe reageren indien u toch slachtoffer wordt?
- Dien onmiddelijk een aanklacht in bij de politie.
- Bezorg uw kantoor een kopie van de aanklacht.

Pas op met frauduleuze mails van keytrade bank

In verschillende media waarschuwde Online-beursmakelaar Keytrade haar klanten voor mogelijk frauduleuze e-mails. Afzenders die lijken op Keytrade vragen in deze mails naar bepaalde persoonlijke gegevens.

De groep benadrukt dat die mails vals zijn en dat zij haar klanten nooit vraagt om via e-mail informatie te versturen over paswoorden, bankrekeningnummers, kaartnummers, enz.

In de frauduleuze mails die worden verstuurd is dat wel het geval. Als u dus een mail krijgt met als titel 'Billing Information records' of 'update your account information', beantwoordt deze mails dan niet, en klik nergens op mogelijke links.

Warenhuizen schenden onze Privacy

Pas op als je gaat winkelen bij warenhuizen zoals Aldi en Spar. Als je daar betaalt met een bankkaart, dan verschijnt het volledige nummer van die kaart op het kassaticket. Heel wat mensen laten dat ticket gewoon liggen in de winkelwagen, of gooien het in de vuilbak. Het is dus een koud kunstje voor criminelen om zo je nummer te weten te komen.

Het vreemde is dat andere warenhuisketens zoals Okay, Red Market, GB en Lidl je rekeningnummer niet op het ticket vermelden, of alleen maar de laatste 4 cijfers tonen (zodat je weet met welke kaart je betaald hebt.

Waarom is het dan zo moeilijk voor Aldi en Spar om hetzelfde te doen? Sommige mensen denken dat het niet gevaarlijk is dat hun bankrekeningnummer in handen zou vallen van criminelen, maar dat klopt niet. Internetfraudeurs hebben maar al te graag de nummers van rekeningen om zo op online winkelsites hun slag te slaan.

Urgent Assistance Needed

Somebody from Burkina Fasso contacted me because he needs my urgent assistance. In return he will give me 5 million dollars. Not bad for a couple of hours work, hé !

Some of these spammers really take us for a fool.


Hello....!!

I work with a bank In West Africa,Burkina faso. I have a business transaction for you.

In my department we discovered an abandoned sum of $10.5 Million US Dollars .In an account that belongs to one of our foreign customer who died along with his entire family in car bomb in Iraq.

Since his supposed next of kin died along side with him at the Bomb blast,there is nobody to claim the left over balance in the account.It is therefore upon this discovery that I and other officials in my department decided to seek your assistance and present you to the bank as his Next of kin.

If you accept i would give you the guide lines of how we can achieve this transfer of the balance (10.5Million Dollars) to your account.and we will shear the money 50-50%.

I expect that you will give me your telephone and fax numbers for easy communication with you and for more details.

Best Regards

My beloved One in Christ

I received a very nice spam letter in the mail today, from a fellow Christian. Nice that she wants to share her wealth with me, no ? (Sarcasm!)

Hello My Beloved One In Christ.

I greet you with the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, It is true that this letter may come to you as a surprise. Nevertheless, I humbly ask you to give me your attention and hear me well.

My name is Mrs H. D. from Australia. I am H. to Dr.D, who worked with our Embassy in Ivory Coast ( Cote D'ivoire ) for a period of 8 years before he died . We were married for 22 years without a child before he died after a brief illness. Since his death I decided not to remarry due to my religious belief . When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of US$6.5m (Six Million Five Hundred Thousand United State American dollars ) with a Bank in Cote D'ivoire. Presently this money is still in the custody of the Bank in Cote D'ivoire. Recently, my Doctor told me that I would not last for the next Four months due to cancer illness.

Having known my condition I decided to donate this money to churchs, organisation or good person that will utilise this money the way I am going to instruct herein.

I want you to use this money for churchs, Charity organisation, orphanages, widows and other people that are in need. l took this decision because I don't have any child that will inherit this money . Moreover, my husband relatives are not close to me since I devolop a Cancer problem and it had been their wish to see me dead in order to inherit his wealth since we have no Child. These people are not worthy of this inheritance. This is why I am taking this decision.

I don't need any telephone communication in this regard because of my ill-health. As soon as I receive your reply I will give you the contact of the Bank in Cote d'ivoire where this money is deposited. I will also issue a letter of authorisation to the bank that will prove you the present beneficiary of this money. I also want you to always put me in prayer.

Any delay in your reply may give me room to look for another good person for this same purpose. Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I stated herein.
Hoping to receive your response soonest.
Thanks and Remain blessed .
Yours sister in the Lord,
Mrs. H. D.,
