OMG! A Blast from The Past - Thanks Facebook!!

Last week I got an email from a high school friend - Melissa. She's been trying to track me down for months, was just itching to catch up and couldn't believe she found me online - on Facebook of all the things! Facebook's been amazing in terms of reconnecting with friends, even kids from early childhood. Anyway, curious as I was to reach out to Melissa and see what's she's been up to all these years, something just didn't seem right.
Being suspicious, I went through my checklist of do's and don'ts. The email from address looked legit. She even added her email under "hope to hear from you soon, Melissa xoxoxo." I hovered over her email address and wouldn't you know it - that wasn't Melissa! Who knows where that link would have taken me, and you can bet I wasn't about to find out.
It's obvious fraudsters are harvesting emails from Facebook and pulling stunts like this. See what leading experts are recommending you do to keep yourself spam-, scam- and phish-free on Facebook.

Guess Who's Turning 40 This Year?

Amazingly, it's Creeper, the very first computer virus. It was launched in a lab during the very early days of the internet and took nearly 11 years to find its way to another computer. Well times have surely changed! 40.jpg
What began as a harmless prank in a lab, the evolution of the virus has become so intentionally damaging - causing millions of dollars in lost productivity and support costs to fix infected computers.
Next stop - smartphones. And that's just a matter of time.
