Dallas, Texas (PRWEB) September 01, 2011

Drew Brenner with Brenner Mortgage originally referred Oberste to SS Private Capital specifically for their credit Score Optimization Systems and Guaranteed Home Loan Approval Program like he does many of his clients who do not meet the home loan requirements that have become much stricter over the last couple of years.

“When Mr. Brenner told me I did not meet the lending guidelines to qualify for my refinance and then offered a solution based on the S.O.S. services, I regained a little confidence that I would be able to refinance my home loan which would save me several hundred dollars each month.” stated Oberste. “Though it sounded too good to be true, I hired SS Private Capital hoping they would be able to deliver on their promises. What ever they do, it works! I saw my scores go up over 100 points in a 2 to 3 week period thanks to Score Optimization Systems . My credit rating has now gone up approximately 140 points, and I am able to refinance my mortgage!” expressed Oberste.

Be wary of an “Enhanced Security Update” email purportedly from the UnionBank of the Philippines asking you to log in to your account. It is a phishing email designed to steal your login details in order to hack your account.

Early this morning, we received an email from CUSTOMER.SERVICE@unionbankph.com asking us to go to a certain website to “restore account access.”

Don’t be fooled by the email address. We’ve received several fake emails before to know that this is a PHISHING email. We’ve seen phishing emails and fake websites that spoof the likes of Paypal , eBay , and E-Trade , among others.

If you unfortunately fell into their trap, in the case of the UnionBank website, they will use your login details to access your UnionBank account to transfer your money to the accounts of unscrupulous scammers.

A screenshot of the fake UnionBank email we got earlier is shown below.

It reads:

Names and social security numbers of 43,000 Yale University students, faculty, staff and alumni were accessible via the Google search engine for about 10 months, according to the university’s newspaper.

The problem was discovered on 30 June and Yale University officials disclosed it on 12 August, offering affected individuals two years of free credit monitoring and identity theft insurance even though they said there was no indication that the information had been exploited, the Yale Daily News reported on 17 August.

The data, mostly belonging to people who worked for the university in 1999, was stored on a file transfer protocol (FTP) server that had been hidden from web search engines until September 2010, when Google’s search engine started indexing FTP servers, said Len Peters, IT services director for Yale. The university’s IT department was unaware of that change, he said.
