Security Breach

As best I can figure out, it was coordinated between someone in San Jose, CA and Leeds, UK. A friend began email communication with the sender in the UK (I think the hacker was in CA) and got him to go to a Western Union pick up point in Leeds to collect his "money". The FBI, Scotland Yard and Leeds law enforcement agencies didn't help in grabbing the pick-up the person. I told them that I could give them an address and a time frame so if they posted someone there, they could make an arrest. I was told to file a report on the FBI site and when they got to it they would decide if they would follow it up. (FBI headquarters 800 miles away would decide it they would send out the agent in Marion 10 miles away) The Leeds police simply declined to get involved. They said, "The crime was commited in the US and more importantly, I wasn't following protocol". Where it not for my son Anthony, I wouldn't be up and operating. IMPORTANT SUGGESTIONS: 1) Do not use the same passwords on different sites. 2) Change your security settings to "Friends only". 3) Don't accept "friends" that you don't already know. 4) Regardless of what you read about the security and law enforcement agencies working on Internet crime, ignore it. We are on our own and individually responsible for our own security. 5) Keep all your passwords and vital information on your own hard drive. Once you've been compromised, all the security systems work to keep you out of your own site. It's like locking your car keys in your car. Cleaning up after being compromised is a complicated mess!

Good luck!
