See what was recently said about the class on Terrorism I taught for KOD, Januariy, 2008:

“This course is packed with useful information. Suspense writers will have plenty of great material to draw on.”

2.  White collar crimes

                        A.  Types:

                                    Identity theft – is on the rise.

                                                There are many ways to steal identity:

                                                            1.  Steal a wallet and then you have the drive

                                                            Id and Credit cards, and easy to use that to

                                                            Become that person.

2.      Go through the trash of the target and obtain credit card statements and other personal information.

3.      Hack into the target’s computer.

4.      Set up a phony contest scam and get personal info on line or by phone.

5.      Call and say you are the credit card company and need to verify that the target still has their credit card by verifying the 3 digit security code.

Protect yourself:

            Shred documents that have your personal information

                        Such as bank records, credit card receipts and

                        Statements.

            When showing your Driver’s license as ID, ask them

                        To look at it but not write it on your check.

            Use one of two excellent pens that soak into the

                        Paper thereby stopping check washing –

                        Which is another way to steal your money

                        And identity…

                                    The Uniball 207 series

                                                Both tested and passed with

                                                Flying colors.  I use them, not

                                                Just on my checks but on all

                                                My important documents.
