911 NEVER FORGET
Friday, September 11, 2009
"As we observe this solemn day in U.S. history -- the (eighth) anniversary of the September 11th terrorist attacks -- we as a nation remember the thousands of lives lost and the people whose lives were changed forever.
We also honor the heroism of all first responders including fire fighters, law enforcement and emergency medical services, and our citizens who responded selflessly in the face of terror. "
David Paulison, FEMA Director (From September 2006 Address)

The Nahant Police Memorial
I never dreamed it would be me
My name for all eternity
Recorded here at this hallowed place
Alas, my name, no more my face
"In the line of duty" I hear them say
My family now the price will pay
My folded flag stained with their tears
We only had those few short years
The badge no longer on my chest
I sleep now in eternal rest
My sword I pass to those behind
And pray they keep this thought in mind
I never dreamed it would be me
And wish with heavy heart and bended knee
I ask for here and all the past
Dear God, let my name be the last.

Work-at-Home Scam Alert for Mail Assistants: Internet Independent Workers
The latest scam to hit the Internet has just arrived from Nigeria: Jobs for people seeking part-time positions—called “mail assistants”— for work done at home. Vacancies are posted on Craigslist.com under the name of ABS Consulting. Based in the country of Luxembourg, ABS purports to have facilities throughout Europe, referred to as “Forward Luxembourg.” It claims to be a leading global provider of risk-management services.
Job seekers—typically college students looking for summer work—are told they will provide mail forwarding services for expatriates, international travelers, and seasonal workers around the world. They are asked to perform simple tasks:
Receive mail at home.
Scan the front of each envelope received.
E-mail scanned images to the company.
Ship accumulated mail biweekly, using prepaid UPS or FedEx postage labels provided via e-mail.
After two weeks on the job, assistants get an e-mail promising an $800 paycheck, plus an extra $200 bonus. But to test their “integrity,” they’re told they’ll get a check for $2,800—and must mail a check back to return the extra money.
The $2,800 check may look legitimate but—big surprise—it’s bogus. So instead of getting paid, the college student now has to pay the bank the full amount. Worse, the scammer now has access to the student’s checking account. And the student is committing a criminal violation by scanning victims’ mail.
The Postal Inspection Service is working to quickly shut down this scheme by attacking the problem from several angles. If you have information on this or similar scams report it online at https://postalinspectors.uspis.gov/ or call 1-877-876-2455, option 3. |
