Hope all is well with you. So sorry I missed you at the workshop. It was an eye opening workshop and participants were just so happy to walk away with processes and procedures they can implement immediately within their organizations to protect themselves from becoming victims.
But not to worry. I am conducting another one on the 23rd of May 2013 because some participants sent me emails asking whether I will have another one soon. So here it is. The 23rd of May 2013 there will be another one and hope to see you there. You will be delighted you came. Please register at mgaskin1.eventbrite.com as soon as you can because seats are limited. Now, let's get some news from the Fraud World.
Here is something interesting and yet brazen.
I cannot stress this enough. The only person who can protect you from something like this is YOU. I understand that we cannot avoid social media, but please be diligent in responding to requests. Use every privacy measure Social Media has to offer. Better yet minimize the amount of information you put on Social media. Don't put things such as your Birth Date or phone number etc on your profile.
You will be very surprised at how just your birth date can open up so many doors for the perpetrator. It is extremely easy these days to get information on you using your birthday date. Privacy rights is becoming a thing of the past. If you do not know the person inviting you to join their group etc, or if this person was not introduced to you by someone you know, please do not accept the invitation. Accepting the invitation, gives the perpetrator access to the rest of your information. BE CAREFUL, BE DILIGENT. It pays.
