[Fredslist] 5/17 LI Seminar

[Fred Klein]

One of our members had their corporate website hijacked. It is a form of
corporate ID Theft.  While they were able to shut down the fraud site, the
thieves simply open it again elsewhere. The second shut down resulted in a
third supported by a European company. 
This problem will continue. It also exposes the member to having their
company trademarks, logos, and other identifiers used without knowledge
resulting in the loss of potential clients and trickery they may become
liable for even if it isn't their fault. 

One of our members has a grown daughter who is experiencing attempts to 
get
into her bank accounts every 48-72 hours because her name, social security
number, and other identifying information were stolen.  This person or 
group
of people are also attempting to open accounts and gain access to PINs 
every
few days.  It takes time away from her life, it rattles her day, it has
cause the loss of productivity to her employers, as well as it just is 
plain
unfair.  She now lives a hyper-vigilant life because of it.

ID Theft is a menace.
