Facebook Hack – Social Media
“On Friday, September 28, 2018 Facebook said that an attack on its computer network had exposed the personal information of nearly 50 million users.The attackers exploited the “View As” feature that allows users to see their Facebook page the way someone else would. This could allow the attackers to take over Facebook accounts. Facebook has fixed this issue and informed law enforcement. They also do not know if the affected accounts were misused or if user information was actually accessed. Make sure you are getting everything your ID Theft membership has to offer.”

How to Protect Yourself
Follow these steps to prevent tax identity theft:
Do
File your income taxes early in the season, before a thief can file taxes in your name. Also, Keep an eye out for any IRS letter or notice that states:
- More than one tax return was filed using your Social Security number.
- You owe additional tax, you have had a tax refund offset, or you have had collection actions taken against you for a year you did not file a tax return.
- IRS records indicate you received wages from an employer unknown to you.
Don’t
- Don’t reply to or click on any links in suspicious email, texts, and social media messages. Make sure to report anything suspicious to the IRS.
Also – I might suggest switching to Duck Duck Go for Search.

Heartbleed Web Threat
In an effort to help our supporters, here is a few types related to the Heartbleed Web Threat:
What is Heartbleed – “Heart bleed is probably one of the largest security exposures, at least that I can remember in ten or fifteen years. It impacts almost all of the internet. David Kennedy, a security researcher and self described ethical hacker calls heart bleed the bug that broke the internet. Affects websites using a software called OpenSSL. Software is used to encrypt data that is exchanges the site will have https or a padlock sign in the web address. Any site you may have used – which is probably most – You could be at Risk. Any site that required a name and password – Could be an issue.
Some general recommendations:
1. Change all your passwords and log-ins.
2. Make the passwords and log-in more difficult.
