  • Use gel pens to avoid check washing

    Use gel pens to avoid check washing
    2025/09/09
    Did you know criminals steal mail looking for checks they can alter? It is called check washing. They dip checks in acetone to dissolve the ink. If you use a gel pen, the ink does not dissolve because the ink in gel pens permeates the paper fibers and is more resistant to chemicals used to erase ink compared to traditional ballpoint pen ink.

    Phishing and smishing continue to be a problem
    2025/08/05
    It is time to talk about “phishing” because a friend recently fell for a phishing scheme. The email, which appeared to come from his cable company, claimed that the method of payment was rejected. And while we are at it, let’s talk about “smishing”, a social engineering attack using fake text messages to trick people into sending money to cybercriminals, sharing sensitive information, or downloading malware.

  • Sometimes we have to intervene

    Sometimes we have to intervene
    2025/07/29
    What would you do if you overheard a phone conversation that sounded like the person was being scammed? Last year, I accompanied my mother to an appointment at her doctor’s office. I overheard a gentleman sitting across me making a phone call. He was speaking loud enough that it was hard to ignore the conversation. After less than a minute, I jumped up out of my chair and told the man he was being scammed. Sometimes we have to intervene to protect others.
