Just a reminder...

I've been seeing more scams than usual.

The latest email scam was from someone posing as Wells Fargo. They took a poor screenshot of their website and embedded it in the top of the email. The email requests you login through their link to verify credentials.

As a general rule DO NOT FOLLOW LINKS from email. If your bank/cellphone/credit card co. needs information from you do not use the links in the email. Instead just login to the site like you normally would. If there is indeed some action you need to take the website will ask you once you are logged in.

Another scam we just received is from a Yellow Pages ad-space sales company. This, of course, is aimed towards businesses. If you have ads in Yellow Pages be wary of this advertisement. It looks like a bill but is in fact a promise to post an add for you in "some" Yellow Pages book.. not necessarily any book in the local area.

Sad but true

We just had a client come in who had a quote from Dell support for $170+ motherboard replacement because her computer wouldn't boot up and was unstable.

She came to us for a second opinion.

Turns out she just had a broken mouse.

A $39 diagnosis and an inexpensive new mouse saved over $100.

Glad we could help ;)
