Voice Mail Fraud - Beware
FCC Consumer Advisory. Voice mail fraud Beware fraud that allows hackersto use a consumer s or business s voice mail system and the default password

Extractions: FCC Home Search Updates E-Filing ... FCC site map Voice Mail Fraud - Beware If you don't change the default password on your voice mailbox, you, or your company, could be in for a big - and expensive - surprise. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has become aware of a new form of fraud that allows hackers to use a consumer's or business's voice mail system and the default password to make collect calls without the knowledge or permission of the consumer. The Scam Works Like This A hacker calls into a voice mail system and searches for voice mailboxes that still have the default passwords active or have passwords with easily-guessed combinations, like 1-2-3-4. (Hackers know common default passwords and are able to try out the common ones until they can break into the phone system.) The hacker then uses the password to access the phone system and to make international calls. The hacker does this by first changing the voice mailbox's outgoing greeting to something like "Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, operator, I will accept the charges." Then, the hacker places a collect call to the number they've just hacked. When the (automated) operator (which is usually programmed to "listen for" key words and phrases like "yes" or "I will accept the charges") hears the outgoing "yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, operator, I will accept the charges" message, the collect call is connected. The hacker then uses this connection for long periods of time to make other international calls.

Extractions: By Ben Fritz In a new twist on the Social Security debate, some House Republicans are pushing legislation that would issue a certificate to Social Security recipients falsely claiming to guarantee that their benefits cannot be cut. This legislation takes dissembling beyond what we have come to expect from politicians, making the federal government itself just another instrument for false rhetoric. Two versions of the bill The Social Security Benefits Guarantee Act of 2001 and The Social Security Guarantee Act of 2001 are before the House, sponsored by Reps. James DeMint, R-S.D., and Walter Jones, R-N.C., respectively. Both propose the same thing: that senior citizens shall, as soon as they become eligible for Social Security, receive certificates from the secretary of the treasury guaranteeing that they will receive the Social Security benefits promised under the law and that those benefits will be indexed for inflation.

Extractions: SPRINGFIELD, Mass. (AP) - A man has admitted to mail fraud in selling marketing services to inventors. The guilty plea was entered Thursday in U.S. District Court in Springfield by Cary Bissell, 51, of Holyoke. His sentencing is set for Aug. 15. Bissell worked in sales for Westfield-based American Inventors Corp. Prosecutors said the company was part of a scam that bilked $60 million from more than 34,000 inventors around the country. Ronald Boulerice, of Russell, is named at the core of the charges. He was president of the now-closed company. The company promised to help inventors patent and market their inventions. But prosecutors say it exaggerated and misrepresented what it did. Click here for more news Click here to send this article to a friend
