With the steady rise of foreclosures in this country comes the steady rise of foreclosure scams. Distressed homeowners are often approached by honest real estate investors seeking to help, and dishonest real estate scammers seeking to leech. These scammers prey on distressed homeowners, knowing they are stuck between a rock and a hard place, desperate for a solution to the problem. Driven by this desperation, many homeowners make drastic mistakes, choosing to trust individuals who are less than honest. These mistakes can easily be avoided, however, if the homeowner knows how to identify a foreclosure scam

One very popular scam is known as equity skimming. “Foreclosure assistance experts” will often approach the homeowner and offer to pay off their mortgage. In exchange, the homeowner may be required to pay a small fee, and will be required to sign over the deed to the property. After receiving the deed, the “experts” then find a renter for the house and pocket the rent. They never pay anything on the mortgage and the bank forecloses anyway. The name on the loan is still that of the homeowner, therefore the foreclosure is recorded on his credit. In a slight variation to this, some scammers will offer to save your credit by having the foreclosure recorded against them, instead of you. Again, you have to sign over the deed to the home. The results are the same. The scammer does nothing for the home and the bank forecloses anyway, with the foreclosure recorded in the name of the homeowner.

Homeowners may also want to be aware of bankruptcy foreclosure scams. Scammers will approach the homeowner offering a solution to the problem, often for a fee. They may promise a refinance, they may promise to take care of the mortgage, or they may promise to make the payments in exchange for the deed, as mentioned above. In bankruptcy cases the scammers never contact the lender. Instead, they take any fees paid and keep them for themselves, and then file bankruptcy in the name of the homeowner. Sometimes the homeowner is aware, sometimes he isn’t. Bankruptcy is not a solution to foreclosure it is merely a delay in the process. Some homeowner may be able to sort out their finances and find a solution to the foreclosure, while it is being delayed, but for all homeowners the bankruptcy is reported on their credit and stays there for years to come.

Some homeowners are offered potential solutions that, in all honesty, may actually work. These solutions need to be considered carefully and looked over at every angle. In one such solution the homeowner will be paid to sign over the deed to their home. In exchange, the buyer will solve the default. This has the potential to work, but there are a lot of variables involved that must be considered. The homeowner needs to be aware of the amount of equity he is selling, and he needs to be able to trust that the buyer will fulfill his obligation by making the payments on the loan and curing the default. In this case the owner is still responsible for the loan, so if a foreclosure does occur it will be recorded in his name. If a homeowner chooses this option, he needs to keep himself informed and read any contracts involved.

Another potential solution may be found in a lease. An individual may offer to buy the property and lease it back to the homeowner, with the option for the homeowner to buy it back later. This can work, as lease options often do, but the homeowner must be aware that if he is able to qualify for a loan it will be a larger loan than the one he currently has. More than likely the interest rate will be higher as well. Both of these variables will result in a higher monthly payment. However, if the homeowner and buyer have agreed to a lease that will last a couple of years, the homeowner may be able to work out his credit and finances, enabling him to buy the house back when the lease expires. With this option he may be able to avoid foreclosure while still living in the home.

With any offer, there are a few signs homeowners can watch for that may tip them off to a potential scam. First off, be wary of up-front fees. Most investors and agents won’t charge a fee for their services until the deal is complete. It’s also wise to watch for people who want you to make your mortgage payment to them or their company, instead of your lender. Some people will try to convince homeowners not to talk to an attorney or their mortgage company. If they are truly honest, they should have no problems with these conversations. It’s also important for homeowners to read anything they sign. Individuals who pressure the homeowner into signing something they haven’t read, or offer to fill out the paperwork for the homeowner, may not be legit. And last, homeowners must be wary of any offer which requires them to sign over the deed to their property.

Homeowners must always be cautious. Scammers are not the only ones offering their services. Many honest investors and agents contact the homeowners, truly hoping to solve their problem. These individuals keep the best interest of the homeowner in mind as they navigate the foreclosure world. The smartest thing a homeowner can do is watch for the red flags and be wary of anything that seems suspect.

1. Spam – What To Expect In 2009

Trend Micro is The Leader in Antispam

Spam has become increasingly malicious and companies need better overall antispam to protect their business. In independent antispam tests, Trend Micro had the highest spam catch rate.

In a comparative test of ten antispam products, both of the Trend Micro solutions tested received the
highest antispam catch rates.

Trend Micro InterScan™ Messaging Hosted Security had the highest catch rate at 96.71 percent, followed closely by Trend Micro InterScan™ Messaging Security Suite at 96.48 percent.

The test applied out-of-box configurations for all products so the results would mimic what a customer experiences when they first install the product.

No antispam training was conducted on any of the products tested.

Although both Trend Micro products use the same antispam technologies, Trend Micro
provides continual updates and tuning for its hosted service, explaining the better catch rate upon deployment.

Both solutions are part of Trend Micro™ Enterprise Security, designed to provide immediate protection with less complexity and close the vulnerability window before damage is done.

Given the dramatic rate of spam increase in the last few years, customers need this type of proactive security they can manage across their organizations.

The test, which was conducted by West Coast Labs over a six day period, included appliances by Barracuda, Fortinet, Ironport and McAfee; software programs by Microsoft, Sophos, Symantec, Trend Micro and Websense; and a SaaS offering by Trend Micro.

The products with the lowest detection rates were McAfee and Fortinet, with catch rates at less than 80 percent.

The false positive rates were minimal across all solutions, except Microsoft, which recorded a significant false positive rate of 0.71 percent.

Richard Thomas, senior test engineer, West Coast Labs concluded that, “Overall, both of the solutions provided by Trend Micro for this test demonstrated better protection rates for end users using this live test set against the other solutions tested.”

Spam Volume Will Continue to Grow

According to TrendLabs(SM), 115 billion spammed messages are being sent everyday.

Ninety-nine percent of spam comes from compromised computers, including those with malicious communication to and from remote users.

Spam is all about numbers as the more spam sent, the greater the chance users will click.

Spam will not go away but it will increasingly employ social engineering techniques to improve its conversion rates.

As one of the primary vehicles for spreading blended Web threats, spam has consistently risen over the years and the U.S. continues to be the “most spammed” country, receiving 22.5 percent of all spam, while Europe is the most spammed continent.

While malicious spam attachments have been infecting users for years, 2008 saw a huge increase in spam that employed social engineering techniques as cybercriminals find new and corruptive ways in targeting victims for profit.

Stopping malicious spam is critical in maintaining corporate network security and protecting essential business data.

Trend Micro InterScan Messaging Security Suite provides comprehensive spam, phishing, malware and virus protection, as well as flexible policy-based content filtering, and easy-to-use management tools to help monitor and control SMTP and POP3 traffic at the messaging gateway.

It helps safeguard against the loss of intellectual property and confidential information, integrated with Trend Micro™ Email Encryption Gateway.

In addition, InterScan Messaging Security minimizes server congestion, and helps maintain employee productivity. InterScan Messaging Security leverages Trend Micro Control Manager™, a platform-independent management tool, for centralized updating, consolidated reporting, and remote configuration capabilities.

Trend Micro’s hosted email security solution , InterScan Messaging Hosted Security stops spam, viruses, spyware, phishing and other email threats before they reach the corporate network, helping customers reclaim IT staff time, end-user productivity, bandwidth and mail server storage.

As a hosted solution, it requires no hardware or software to install and maintain, and Trend Micro’s worldwide team of experts manages all hot fixes, patches, updates and application tuning to continuously optimize security and performance.

Third Parties Demonstrate the Value of Trend Micro™ Smart Protection Network

Trend Micro, in a separate test conducted by another lab, also exceeded competitors McAfee, IronPort, Websense, Blue Coat, SurfControl in blocking malicious URLs that are associated with Web threats.

Utilizing Trend Micro’s Web reputation technology, which is part of the Trend Micro Smart Protection
Network, provided up to 11 percent better protection than the next competitor.

In addition, a recent report found that Trend Micro Smart Protection Network helped reduce malware-related customer support calls by up to 75 percent.

A cloud-client security architecture designed to stop Web threats, Trend Micro Smart Protection Network provides instant, real-time protection, and a smarter way to combat Web threats compared to traditional methods of protection.

West Coast Labs Test Methodology

West Coast Labs used their live corporate enterprise spam feed, multiplexed across each of the products, so that each solution received the same emails.

Testing was conducted over a total of six days with subsequent analysis.

Please do not fall for this Aquamarine Gem Scam.

Email From : magreatm78@yahoo.com Stella Evans

Email Subject : YOUR KIND ATTENTION

Dear Friend,

Brief Introduction, Am Ms Stella Evans 32years old, citizen of London UK, a purchasing manager to a company in Uk called MCG COMPANY PLC, LONDON.

Kindly give attention to this letter, though it will bring surprise to you as it comes from a strange person.

Due to my condition now, i honorable demand for your co-operations, honest, reliablity and sincerely on this transaction as my Friend / business partner, i have deliberated it in my mind and decided to contact you and offer you this business proposal.

I have decided to intimate you personally and discreetly with this business proposal which will be of mutual benefit to both of us.

When i was perjuring through your profile, I became aware of your credibility, I use to come to Malaysia to purchase a certain product called AQUAMARINE GEM .

Now i will no more be able to make my trip to Malaysia as normal does because of my health, I have been diagnosed with Esophageal Cancer which was discovered very late, due to my laxity in caring for my health.

It has defiled all forms of medicine, and right now am on admission in the hospital that will take few months according to medical director.

Though my company have arranged to send my assistant for the mission to purchase the products on behalf of my company which i normally bought in Malaysia.

For the fact that i do buy the product ( AQUAMARINE GEM ) at the rate of ($2,500 u.s dollars) per a carton of six bottles and re-sold to my company at rate of ($4,000 u.s dollars)

The AQUAMARINE GEM is a new scientific chemical fluid substance manufactured in North Korea , its of lubricant, mainly used in the gemological laboratory for the purification of diamonds clarity treatment, it penetrate deep into diamond and vaporizes out black inclusion in diamonds and other precious stones listed below:-

(1) Tanzanite
(2) Citrine
(3) Pink topaz
(4) Aquamarine
(5) Ruby
(6) Sapphire
(7) Zircon (both blue and colorless)

These product are rare and highly demanded by my company in Britain, though not long it came to existence, it was introduce to our company by a Chinese friend, Mrs Jessy Chau, a gemologist in USA, who gave me a sample for text on my last visit to the United States.

After our companies research on this product, I discovered it in Malaysia and i have been going to Malaysia for the purchases .

Now i will no more be able to make my trip to Malaysia as normal does because of my health,

I have been diagnosed with Esophageal Cancer which was discovered very late, due to my laxity in caring for my health.

It has defiled all forms of medicine, and right now am on admission in the hospital that will take few months according to medical director.

My company needs this product now and they are arranging to send my assistant for the mission to purchase the products which i normally bought in Malaysia.

For the fact that i do buy the product ( AQUAMARINE GEM ) at the rate of ($2,500 u.s dollars) per a carton of six bottles and re-sold to my company at rate of ($4,200 u.s dollars) and i don’t want the company to know about this therefore.

I now wish to appoint you as my local agent in Malaysia, so that the assistant purchasing manager who will soon be in Malaysia will have to buy the products through you in other to protect my former dealings.

I have not particularly lived my life so well, as I never really cared to have a friend then in Malaysia but focus on my business as that was the only thing I cared for.

But now I regret all this as i now know that there is more to life than just wanting to have or make all.

Now that my health has deteriorated so badly, I cannot do this my self for now.

I’am offering you 50% of the total proceeds ( profit ) from any of the deals whenever he comes to make the purchase of the products as its going to be a continuous business until i stand back on my feet while 40% is for me and 10% would be your local and international operational costs during each of the business transactions in Malaysia.

This transaction is completely risk free to you and will last a day or two days only.

I don’t want the person they will be sending to know the cost price that i have been buying the product in Malaysia.

The dealer of this product is a Malaysian lady, I want to introduce you as the dealer to my Company so that my representative will buy it from you as i will give you the contacts of the Malaysia lady so that you can contact her on your own and arrange, why the assigned purchase manager will meet you and buy it from you.

If you promise to be faithful to me by sending my percentage after the transaction with my company, i will now send you all the details you need for the business.

I need a trustworthy person that will handle this business for me until i stand back on my feet. I want truth & honest to be our watch word.

While waiting for your positive and urgent reply.

Warmest regards

Stella Evans

Email Subject : FINAL PAYMENT NOTIFICATION

On-paid Beneficiary,

It is obvious that you have not received your fund which is to the tune of $5.8million due to past corrupt Governmental Officials who almost held the fund to themselves for their selfish reason and some individuals who have taken advantage of your fund all in an attempt to swindle your fund which has led to so many losses from your end and unnecessary delay in the receipt of your fund.

The National Central Bureau of Interpol enhanced by the United Nations and Federal Bureau of Investigation have successfully passed a mandate to the current president of Nigeria his Excellency President Umaru Yar’Adua to boost the exercise of clearing all foreign debts owed to you and other individuals and organizations who have been found not to have receive their Contract Sum, Lottery/Gambling, Inheritance and the likes.

Now how would you like to receive your payment? By Check or by ATM card?

ATM Card: We will be issuing you a custom pin based ATM card which you will use to withdraw up to $10,000 per day from any ATM machine that has the Master Card Logo on it.

Also with the ATM card you will be able to transfer your funds to your bank account.

The ATM card comes with a handbook or manual to enlighten you about how to use it.

Good if you do not have a bank account

Check: To be deposited in your bank for it to be cleared within three working days.

Your payment would be sent to you via any of your preferred option and would be mailed to you via UPS.

Because we have signed a contract with UPS which should expire by the end of February 2009 you will only need to pay $115 instead of $149.00 saving you $34.00! So if you pay before January 31st you save $34.00

Take note that anyone asking you for some kind of money above the usual fee is definitely a fraudster and you will have to stop communication with every other person if you have been in contact with any.

Also remember that all you will ever have to spend is $115.00 nothing more! Nothing less!

And we guarantee the receipt of your fund within the next 3 working days after the receipt of payment

Name : Rovenda Elaine Clayton: UPS Tracking Number: 1Z757F991596606592 (www.ups.com)

Note: Everything has been taken care of by the Federal Government including taxes, custom paper and clearance duty so all you will ever need to pay is $115.

This is because UPS C.O.D (Cost on Delivery) service is not applicable to international shipping according to their terms.

To effect the release of your fund valued at $5.8million you are advised to contact this office and the following information:

Your full Name…
Your Address:…………….

Conficker (Downadup) Virus Alert – Protect your computer with Panda Security.

As you’re no doubt aware there’s a new worm causing suffering to PC users worldwide, called “Confiker”.

What is Confiker ?

The Confiker worm, which has surged dramatically during the past few days, exploits a bug in the Windows Server service used by all supported versions of Microsoft’s operating system including; Windows 2000, XP, Vista, Server 2003 and Server 2008.

Confiker disables system restore, blocks access to security websites, and downloads additional malware to infected machines.

The worm uses a complicated algorithm which changes daily and is based on timestamps from public websites such as Google and Baidu.

The worm’s algorithm generates huge numbers of domain names every day such as: qimkwaify .ws, mphtfrxs .net, gxjofpj .ws, imctaef .cc, and hcweu .org.

This functionality makes it impossible and impractical to shut them all down; most of them in fact are never registered in the first place.

All of Panda’s software provides complete security protection against Confiker virus.

Conficker, a new family of computer worms, is spreading rapidly: It has already infected almost 6% of computers worldwide, and has spread across 83 countries.

- It spreads by exploiting a vulnerability in Windows, as well as USB and MP3 devices.

- It is designed to remain hidden on computers.

- It allows third parties to take remote control of your computer.

Now is the time to act to prevent infection!

Panda 2009 Solutions proactively detect Conficker virus, so users have been protected from the outset against this threat.

A look at the scourge of spam in 2008 and some predictions for spam in 2009.

Spam, oh spam — can we ever get rid of you?

2008 saw a promising blow to the endless sea of junk mail, but the relief didn’t last for long.

Now, spam experts say new forms of annoyances are on the way for the new year.

“Some battles have been won in 2008, but the war is far from over,” says Martin Thorborg, co-founder of SPAMfighter, a software development and spam research company.

So far, junk mail has managed to infiltrate only about 22 percent of its potential Internet territory, Thorborg says. That means more methods — and, yes, more headaches — are bound to be on the horizon.

The Spam Forecast

They may not have a doppler radar, but the SPAMfighter team has a full forecast — and it doesn’t look pretty. Here’s what’s topping the junk mail outlook for 2009:

More social network spam. Spammers started bringing their ways to networks in increasing numbers throughout ‘08, and that trend is expected to climb quickly in the coming months.

More complex networks behind the efforts. The shutdown of a Colorado hosting company in November had a significant effect because of its configuration: That single company served as the control center for the majority of botnets that were propagating unwanted messages.

Researchers think as much as 75 percent of all junk mail was tied to that one place. Spammers will be smarter in 2009, SPAMfighter says, building more resilient and less centralized systems.

More combined methods.

Spam will be partnered with spyware and phishing tactics to create new kinds of “blended threats,” SPAMfighter says.

An increase in “spear phishing,” or spam campaigns targeted to specific groups and interests.

These might include messages tailored to employees of a particular company or organization, or even just to members of certain online networks.

The messages are designed to look like official communications.

A general rise in creativity. In 2008, SPAMfighter observed things like phishing attempts disguised as warnings against phishing.

As even novice Internet users become more savvy, the disguises are likely to expand.

The Spam Equation

Many of the anti-spam precautions seem obvious — but, obviously, everyone isn’t taking them.

The good news?

The number of people still gullible is small.

A recent University of California study (PDF) suggests only one in every 12.5 million spam messages gets a response.

The bad news?

That tiny percentage is enough to generate $7,000 a day, or $3.5 million a year, for a decent-sized spam network, the study says.

What’s more, the activity could add as many as 8,500 new bots into the spam network every 24 hours.

While we’d love to track down those imbeciles actually ordering stuff from spam — if you’re one of them, please leave a comment below with your contact information — the more realistic action is just to spend a few minutes talking about proper cyberprotection. So, if you’re confident in your spam-fighting abilities, relax and enjoy a complimentary pumpkin muffin.* Otherwise, read on and reinforce your knowledge.

*Complimentary pumpkin muffins available only for PC World staff

Your Spam Protection Plan

Thinking about responding to an unsolicited message?

Maybe a pleasant request to be removed from the list? Don’t. End of story.

The same goes for “delivery failure” messages.

If you don’t remember sending the message being referenced, hit delete and move on.

Avoid giving out your primary e-mail address on any forum or blog site that you don’t absolutely trust.

Set up a secondary “junk” account for public distribution instead.

Similarly, don’t post your primary e-mail address on your own blog or Web site. Bots will find it and add you to their lists.

Never send money, either for a purchase or donation, to any entity you learned about through an unsolicited message.

This is old, but it still hasn’t hit home for some folks: DON’T CLICK ON LINKS IN UNSOLICITED E-MAILS.

If a message from your bank tells you to click to confirm your account, ignore it.

Open up your browser and type in the bank’s legit URL manually, then see if there’s any real issue to be addressed.

What is Panda Managed Office Protection ?

Antivirus products require too much time and effort for small and medium sized companies

SMBs fully understand that they face the same risks and regulations as large organizations.
