of
Spring (Sept. 1st) after the coldest winter for 10 years - so they tell us!
[EMAIL PROTECTED]


We are also supposed to start spring today but it is the coldest it has been
all winter.  We live in a winter rainfall area and had very heavy rain over
the weekend with snow on the high mountains - a wonderful sight for all of
us as we are not used to snow.  The snow stays for a week or two while we
gawk at the sight.  The minimum temperature here has dropped to about 5
degrees Celsius and the daytime temp yesterday was about 12 degrees which to
us is just about freezing temp!!

Those emails are not from legitimate banks - they are spam.  No real 
bank would ever send you an unsolicited email asking you to verify your 
details.  Just hit the delete button, and DONT reply.

Worse than just spam - they are phishing, hoping to entice you into 
entering your information, so they can rip you off. Even if it is 
your very own bank where you have accounts, NEVER fill in that sort 
of detail when requested by an e-mail.


The other thing is spoofing, filling in a fake From address - 
that's how you get spam ostensibly from yourself, and why you should 
not blame your friends for sending you spam of the male enhancement 
sort (can't answer for the chain-letter sort; that might really be 
from your friend!). The spam-generating program can take your address 
book and send to everyone in it, and spoof the return address as 
being from anyone in it as well. All is not what it seems on the 
surface.

Watch out for phone calls, too. The first time I got a we're calling 
about your credit card account call, I nearly had a heart attack. It 
was only with the second sentence -- there's nothing wrong with it, at 
this time -- that I relaxed enough to slam the receiver down. And it 
took another few finutes *afterwards* to realize that a) they never 
said whose account they were talking about (my DH and I have separate 
cards, from two different banks)  or, b) which bank they were supposed 
to be representing.


I've had 2 more calls like it since and, both times, I put the receiver 
down after the first sentence. Maybe, next time around, I'll have 
enough fortitude to listen to the entire pitch...
