man gon to 8 year prison by stock-tip scam

Scam in the stock exchange the stock leader was prisond in to the 8 year
 The ringleader of a $20 million phony stock-tip scam was sentenced to eight years in prison on Tuesday in the latest, and most severe, punishment to come out of what prosecutors called a classic "boiler-room" fraud.
Kenneth Marsh, 44, pleaded guilty in April to one count of securities fraud. He was the owner and CEO of Gryphon Holdings, which operated as Gryphon Financial from 2005 to 2010, an investment-advisory services company based in a strip mall on Staten Island.
At the hearing before U.S. District Judge Jack Weinstein in Brooklyn federal court, Marsh, who was already in custody, sat beside his mother and his lawyer, Alan Futerfas.
Futerfas argued for a five-year sentence, pointing to the much shorter terms Weinstein imposed on the other Gryphon defendants, including Marsh's ex-wife, Nicole, who was equally culpable, Futerfas said, but received just three months.
Weinstein said he sentenced Nicole Marsh to a lesser term because she is the caregiver for the couple's three-year-old son.
Roger Burlingame, the Assistant U.S. Attorney, argued that even 10 years in prison would be a significant departure from the 25-year maximum that Marsh faced under the federal sentencing guidelines. The prosecution had recommended Marsh receive a sentence of 11 to 14 years.
"There's hundreds of victims who lost life savings," Burlingame said. "The defendant has shown absolutely no acceptance for his crime."
'HEART-WRENCHING STORIES'
Weinstein originally indicated he was considering a five-year sentence for Marsh, but after hearing the testimony of several victims of the scam, he said he was persuaded to consider a 10-year sentence over the objections of Marsh's lawyer.
"This defendant victimized over 5,000 people," Weinstein said in handing down the sentence, adding that the victims "told heart-wrenching stories."

Scaming using the fake news

In latest onine fraud is coming with the another type also there is the online scam by the fake news the news using they cheat we different categories of scams:

1. The “Free Trial offers” that promise to let you try the product and you only pay for shipping
2. Selling a watered down juice, or cheap extract powder at full price – often 4 times what it is worth

By far, the Free trial offers are the worst. The excitement of getting a free sample causes the victim to overlook fine print at the very bottom of a website that actually signs them up for a VERY expensive monthly subscription ($80 a month or more), that is VERY hard to cancel.
These scams have been going on a while, but the techniques used are getting trickier all the time. In particular, the sales pitch used by the free trial scams. The most prevalent used to be the personal experience blog, like hilarysweightloss. Before and after pictures showed great results, but were actually from a stock photo web site, and not of an acai berry user. This web site was copied thousands of times and used to rip off hundreds of thousands of desperate dieters.
Now, and even more insidious pest is popping up – the fake news report. Websites are made to look like a news site, with lots of generic news articles. One well written article is planted “reporting” on the acai berry trend and linking to a certain free trial they want to push. Julia miller news 6 is one such fake site that looks like a real news station’s website.
Visitors that stumble across one of these fake news websites are often fooled into believing it is a real news site, so they trust the link, and soon sign up for the nasty monthly subscription. I’ve heard many people express disbelief that these sites are legal, and to tell you the truth, I don’t really know. But I suspect it is much like the free trial offers themselves. These scammers know the loopholes in our laws and skirt the edges. And if they do cross the line and get in trouble, they simply close up shop and pop up next week with a different company.
A website isn’t the same as a physical store that you can come back to if you have a complaint, so do a little research when in doubt. In this case, if you google Julia miller news 6, the top listing takes you to a page on our website warning that it is a scam, so we have been able to help some people avoid the scams. Remember, the web can be a dangerous place – be careful out there.
Where to Get REAL Acai
The free trial scammers don’t bother to send you a quality acai product. They don’t plan on satisfied customers, so just use cheapest, heat processed, worthless product they can find. Sometimes they even use the ground up seed of the berry, which has no health benefit, but can then legally claim it is Acai Berry!
You can purchase REAL quality Acai Berry products safely at the BBB certified official Acaiberry Store, where you’ll find the best prices on all the top brands, but NO FREE TRIALS! Click the **ONLINE STORE** in the left sidebar.

online dating scam

I just wanted to notify you of a type of scam that is going on with some of the dating sites. Basically, the scam is to get a guy to set up a PayPal account using a credit card. Here is what I have experienced (luckily, I was smart enough not to fall for it):

A guy starts communicating with a "woman" (the pictures are attractive). Initial contact between victim and scam artist is to take the step in starting a relationship.

The artist then explains that they are in another country (usually Africa: Nigeria or Mali, but England is also being used), and that they will not be returning to the States for another two weeks.

The artists may even send more pictures to the victim's e-mail address to "legitimize" cooperation of starting a relationship.

Upon finding out more information about the "nice looking woman" -- her parents died in a tragic accident and she has no family or friends who can help her stateside, or she was abandoned by her previous boyfriend in said country with no money to get home -- this is where I become skeptical and ask if they have gone to the embassy or local church to find assistance to return home. After all, I barely know these "women."

Once I tell them that I cannot help them with any kind of financial help, contact almost always ceases. Although it is embarrassing to admit, I believe this information will help others.

Sometimes the sad story includes a jewelry merchant selling diamonds and needing the PayPal account for their clients to deposit money in a secure American account that will yield a better profit for the jewelry company. It sounded too sketchy to me, and I recognized it for the scam factor.

I tell them that I have heard their story before, and then they stop contact.

Luckily, the dating sites that I use have an option to report abuse, and I do my best to report each case.

I hope this will help others who are a bit more gullible than myself. Thanks for getting the word out.

Nigerian 419 Letter

The setup: You receive an e-mail, usually written in screaming capital letters, that starts out like this:

"DEAR SIR/MADAM: I REPRESENT THE RECENTLY DEPOSED MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE FOR NODAMBIZIA, WHO HAS EMBEZZLED 30 MILLION DOLLARS FROM HIS STARVING COUNTRYMEN AND NOW NEEDS TO GET IT OUT OF THE COUNTRY..."

The letter says the scammers are seeking an accomplice who will transfer the funds into their account for a cut of the total--usually around 30 percent. You'll be asked to travel overseas to meet with the scammers and complete the necessary paperwork. But before the transaction can be finalized, you must pay thousands of dollars in "taxes," "attorney costs," "bribes," or other advance fees.

What actually happens: There's no minister and no money--except for the money you put up in advance. Victims who travel overseas may find themselves physically threatened and not allowed to leave until they cough up the cash. (FYI, "419" is named for the section of Nigeria's penal code that the scam violates.)

The risk: Serious financial loss--or worse. Victims of Nigerian letter fraud lose $3000 on average, according to the FBI. Several victims have been killed or gone missing while chasing a 419 scheme.

The question you've gotta ask yourself: Of all the people in the world, why would a corrupt African bureaucrat pick me to be his accomplice?

PHISHING SCAM

The setup: You receive an e-mail that looks like it came from your bank, warning you about identity theft and asking that you log in and verify your account information. The message says that if you don't take action immediately, your account will be terminated.

What actually happens: Even though the e-mail looks like the real deal, complete with authentic logos and working Web links, it's a clever fake. The Web site where you're told to enter your account information is also bogus. In some instances, really smart phishers direct you to the genuine Web site, then pop up a window over the site that captures your personal information.

The risk: Your account information will be sold to criminals, who'll use it to ruin your credit and drain your account. According to Gartner, phishing scammers took consumers (and their banks, who had to cover the charges) for $1.2 billion in 2003.

The question you've gotta ask yourself: If this matter is so urgent, why isn't my bank calling me instead of sending e-mail?

SPEAKASIA SCAM

Speak Asia scam: Mumbai police arrests COO Tarak Bajpai

New Delhi, : After the reports of a multi-crore scam, Economic Offenses Wing of the Mumbai police has taken the Speak Asia COO Tarak Bajpai in custody for questioning. Speak Asia scam looted Rs 2,000 crore from India, it is the one of the survey leading company in the world it have around the world to scam the surveying is only the front face of company but company main doing the money rotations What about Investors' money?

UPDATE: Speak Asia Scam - Similar websites under Scanner.

Earlier, the CID department had frozen the bank accounts of Speak Asia, the online survey company, after authorities received complaints against it. According to some PILs filed against Speak Asia, it is involved in a Rs 2000 crore scam.

Some of the media reports alleged that Speak Asia's pyramid scheme involves paid subscribers filling up online consumer survey forms and luring more into its fold in return for commissions.the other mlm marketing suvey company will coughs by the cyber cell also.

Earlier, BJP leader Kirit Somaiya alleged that Speak Asia was involved in a multi-crore scam and had asked the government to investigate into these scams.The many of the leaders are involved with speakasia.

Auction Fraud

It is the one of the most leading one in the online scaming
The setup: Online auction fraud accounts for three-quarters of all complaints registered with the FBI's Internet Crime Complaint Center (formerly the Internet Fraud Complaint Center). There are many types of eBay chicanery, but the most common one is where you send in your money and get nothing but grief in return.

What actually happens: You never get the product promised, or the promises don't match the product. The descriptions may be vague, incomplete, or completely fake. One scammer accepted bids for Louis Vuitton bags that she didn't own, and then scoured the Internet looking for cheap knockoffs that cost less than the winning bid. She managed to collect at least $18,000 from bidders before she got nailed. A buyer thought he'd purchased a portable DVD player for $100, but what he got instead was a Web address for a site where he could buy a player for a $200 discount. The stories are virtually endless.

The risk: You get ripped off, losing time and money. If you spill the beans about the scam, the seller may retaliate by posting negative eBay reports about you using phony names.

The question you've gotta ask yourself: Who in their right mind would sell a $200 bag for $20?

the scaming process

After years of trying to recover from the dot-com hangover, the Internet is booming again. Online retail sales increased by 26 percent in 2004, according to comScore Networks. In September 2004, the number of domain name registrations hit 64.5 million--an all-time high. You know what else is on the rise? Internet crime.

Complaints about online fraud nearly doubled from 2003 to 2004, according to a December 2004 report by the FBI and the National White Collar Crime Center. Research firm Gartner estimates that nearly 10 million Americans were hit by online fraudsters last year--largely due to a wave of phishing e-mails seeking to steal users' identities.

In fact, phishing attacks seem to be the new, hot scam. Scammers send you an e-mail that tries to lure you to a legitimate-looking Web site where you'll be asked to enter personal information. The thing is, it's all fake; and if you fall for it, someone is ready to take your Social Security Number and start opening credit card accounts.

The FBI recently began warning people of scammers posing as tsunami-relief organizations. And late last month, the FBI warned that someone out there was even posing as the FBI itself--sending a fraudulent e-mail with the subject line "FBI Investigation" and trying to lure people into buying products from a separate, fictional scam artist whom the Feds were supposedly on to.

Confusing? Sure. But just ask yourself this: When was the last time the FBI sent a polite e-mail when they wanted someone's cooperation in an investigation?

Thousands of con artists, grifters, fraudsters, and other denizens of the dark are trolling for victims online. Can you recognize online fraud when you see it? Here's a quick guide to the Top 5 scams and schemes you're most likely to find on the 'Net.

THE SOME RULE YOU REMEMBER IN ONLINE TO DO ANY IMPORTANT THING

The bank will never ask you for your PIN, password, catch-phrase or anything like that.
Never disclose your password or PIN to anyone.
Always type in the address of your bank’s or credit card company’s website.
Use a secure password: not your date of birth, vehicle registration, telephone number or anything associated with you that someone might easily guess.
Use different passwords for different secure sites.
Check your bank and credit card statements immediately.
Always know where your passport, drivers licence and social security card is, and report them lost/stolen once you’re satisfied you cannot find them.
Properly destroy old utility bills, bank statements and any mail which is of a sensitive nature that may contain your name and address, or that could be used as identification to open an account or gain credit.
Keep your important documents in a secure place and keep records of your credit card number, as well as the number to report them lost/stolen. Remember you wouldn’t have the card!
This is not an in-depth list, but should serve to bring security and the ricks of fraud home to those who never gave it a second thought. There hundreds of different measures which can be taken to improve computer security and how to protect your private information, but that’s beyond the scope of this article.

Basically, be aware and educate yourself, get training; it costs money sure, think of it this way – a car sticker , which reads “If you think Education is expensive, try ignorance.”

If you’re interested to know more about online crimes (phishing), I encourage to look-up the term in Google, there you will find hundreds of websites with updated information on online crimes and identity theft. Please don’t be one of the many who say “I had no idea” or “If only I did know…

YOU SHOULD SEE THIS ONE TO YOUR FRIEND YOU SHARE THIS ONE USING THE TWITER OR FACEBOOK OR OTHER WAY.

ONLINE MORE THAN 80% WEBSITES ARE THE SCAM FULL

It’s really a sad reality, but there are people out there making a living from scamming people who want to make a better living. They prey on the hopes and dreams of those who believe that their product or service will change their lives financially forever.

Although there are many fraudulent scams on the internet, I am happy to say that there are still websites out there that provide true and valuable information, products, and services that will help people make money online.

If you decide that an online business is the way you want to build your finances, then there are some things that you must know before you spend your hard earned money on a product or service.

Things to look for on a fraudulent site are:
-No form of contact.
-No frequently asked questions or help section.
-No specified guarantee or returns policy.
-No specified privacy policy.
-Read all the terms and conditions of any offer very carefully: claims of free or very cheap offers often have hidden costs.
-Site does not have a legitimate secured site seal of approval.

One way to check if a website is secured by encryption is to look at the actual URL address. If it begins with ‘https’ instead of ‘http’ then the website is secured. The ‘s’ in ‘https’ stands for secured site. For example;https://www.theultimateinternetmillionaire.com/. You may also be able to see a small picture of a lock next to your browser indicating that you are on a secured website. A way for you to be sure of the security of your payments online is if the website offers a Paypal payment option. All payment information is completely processed through Paypal using 128 bits of encryption which is the highest level commercially available. When using Paypal as your payment method you can be assured that your information is protected.

So, now you know a few helpful tactics and tips that will help you beat the scammers at their own game and help weed out fraudulent sites. Just remember to listen to your ‘gut’ feeling and if you think the website looks dodgy, then stay away from it.
