    Nikki Mobile Fraud?
    2008-06-25 06:24:00
    My friend called me a while ago. He told me that there was a Filipino-speaking man who called him over his Softbank mobile and informed that "he was allegedly sending a lot of SMS using the Nikki Mobile call card from his cellphone to the Philippines." I do not know if this man who called my friend was just fooling him because in the first place, my friend has never used that mobile service before here in Japan. In fact, the Nikki Mobile we purchased two (2) Sundays ago in Oji, Tokyo has never ever been scratched and it was really untouched. How come the man say that my friend used that service of Nikki Mobile. It was very impossible to happen here in Japan. I now begin to have a suspicion when this man allegedly began to ask for the serial number of the call card that my friend was using. By that time, he was already having a hunch that this man who called was maybe defrauding him and then eventually asking the PIN number of that call card of Nikki Mobile. He then told the called that

    Grenada Reopens for Offshore Banking Following Massive Fraud
    2008-06-11 03:38:00
    Former Oregonian Gilbert Ziegler masterminded a Ponzi scheme, creating the First International Bank of Grenada (FIBG) in 1997, the same year that the country authorized its first offshore bank. Ziegler held a passport from the fabricated Dominion of Melchizedek and backed-up his bank with a 10,000-carat ruby he falsely claimed ownership of and about $14 billion in securities.Ziegler’s Ponzi scheme lured investors with the promise of 300 percent annual interest. The bank took in $170 million and Ziegler fled to Uganda. Although many individuals have been imprisoned, and Ziegler died in 2005 awaiting trial, there is no money left to pay back defrauded investors.Ziegler’s scheme was just the worst of many banking scandals that occurred in Grenada, and charges have been leveled against the government of Prime Minster Keith Mitchell for its involvement in the frauds.Grenada’s government says it is making the necessary reforms, and it has created a single agency to oversee the offshore

    Credit card fraud
    2008-06-09 13:47:09
    Credit card fraud is a wide-ranging term for theft & fraud committed using credit card or any similar payment mechanism as a fraudulent source of funds in a transaction. The purpose may be to obtain goods without paying, or to obtain unauthorized funds from an account. Credit card fraud is also an adjunct to identity theft The cost of credit card fraud reaches into billions of dollars annually. In 2006 fraud in U.K. alone was estimated at £428 million, US$750-830 million at prevailing 2006 exchange rates.When a credit card is lost or stolen, it remains usable until the holder notifies the bank that the card is lost; most banks have toll-free telephone numbers with 24-hour support to encourage prompt reporting. Still, it is possible for a thief to make unauthorized purchases on that card up until the card is canceled. In the absence of other security measures, a thief could potentially purchase thousands of dollars in merchandise or services before the card holder or the bank real

When I reached the petrol pump at 9:30 Am today(24th April 2008)(BP petrol pump near Richmond road) I showed the crisp 1000 Rs note to the attendant at the petrol pump and told him to fill 1000 Rs. I repeated 1000 to him 2-3 times so that he registers 1000 Rs in his head fill the petrol for 1000 Rs. I repeatedly told him because of the past experience whenever I had asked him to fill petrol worth 1000 bucks at different gas stations(i.e. for e.g. at Advaitha Gas station, near udapi garden BTM to name one of them),the attendant always filled 200 rs of petrol and said "Sir your 200 rs of petrol is filled" .

Hi,This is a personal experience of mine when I was misled by a private consultancy. I had my visa interview in the month of July, 2006 and my visa was rejected under 212 (a)(6)© (abbreviated as �p6c�) stating my documents were fraudulent. Well, I realized that my documents were fake ones only after my visa was rejected since the stated amount was not there in the bank.I had taken the help of a consultancy to prepare myself for the visa. After coming to know about the procedures for obtaining a visa I was told that I need to show Rs.16 lakhs in my account. Since I didn�t have that much money in my account I also got a loan sanctioned from the bank and was looking forward to get my visa but then the consultancy told me that I needed to show Rs.16 lakhs in the form of self-owned liquid cash. The money I had with me then was insufficient to cover my first year

    Credit Card Fraud Protection
    2008-04-03 09:47:53
    I know many people who have had their credit card used illegally whether by stealing the card number, skimming the card or Internet fraud. In the UK alone it was estimated that 428 million pounds was lost to credit card fraud in 2006 and the amount is growing each year. It is really scary how vulnerable we are to this kind of theft. Fortunately for consumers most quality credit cards on the market have a strong fraud protection system with many security checks in place to keep your money safe. Whether you apply for a business credit card or a personal credit card you will find that most offer a good level of protection.

    Google's Click Fraud Detection System
    2008-03-27 02:35:00
    In general practice, Google uses a 3-stage detection methods to detect click frauds and invalid clicks:1. Real Time Filters: In this stage, automated algorithms from Google filter out invalid clicks in real time. All the clicks are analyzed for click fraud. This stage detects most of the invalid clicks in advance and prevents those clicks from reaching your account in the first place.2. Offline Analysis: After the first stage of real time filter, most of the invalid clicks are automatically filtered out. The second step involves manual analysis of clicks. This stage is mainly focused on the Adsense network. In case some invalid clicks still pass through this stage, Google has a policy that states that if you have been charged for invalid clicks in the past 2 months, you see a credit in your "Billing Summary" labeled "Adjustment-Click Quality".3. Investigations: Almost all the clicks are filtered out in the first two stages itself. In the last stage of the 3-stage system, all the clicks
