Phishing Scam – Phony Amazon E-mails
There's been a recent increase in phony Amazon order
confirmation e-mails, so it's a good time to remind you to be careful before
responding to any messages that appear to be from this major online store.
These fake messages often try to direct recipients to a website that looks
similar to Amazon.com, where they ask for account information in an attempt
to commit fraud. The e-mails may also contain potential viruses or malware
that can detect passwords or sensitive data. See the image below to view an
example of a bogus Amazon order confirmation e-mail:
If you receive an e-mail like this, check for clues that it's a fake:
- Instead of your real name in the introduction,
an e-mail address is listed.
- The e-mail address is frequently wrong.
- There is no address shown in the shipping
information area.
Remember, NEVER click on links in any unsolicited or suspicious
e-mails. To learn more about the specific tricks used to target Amazon buyers
and what to watch for in e-mails like these, you can visit Amazon's phishing
page at:

>From this page, you can also report any suspicious e-mails you've
received and track your recent Amazon orders.

This Month's FAQ – Why Does A Webpage Load More Quickly The
Second Time I Visit?
 Question: I've
noticed that when I return to a webpage I've previously visited, it loads
more quickly. Why is that?
Answer: You're witnessing the work of your computer's cache
(pronounced "cash"), which stores data locally in order to speed up
retrievals. When you download a webpage for the first time, the data is
cached on your computer. The next time you visit that same webpage, your Web
browser just accesses it from the cache instead of requesting the file from
the Web server. Because accessing your computer's cache is much faster than
retrieving the page from the Internet, this process can significantly speed
up your Web browsing.

Sites Of The Month – Great Sites To Check Out In September
Household Product Safety
householdproducts.nlm.nih.gov – There's
a reason people put locks on cabinet doors when there are small children
around: household products can be dangerous to them. But, don't forget, they
can be dangerous to you, too. This site provides information on potential
health effects of many common products (from cleaning supplies to personal
care items) as well as handling and disposal recommendations. Search using
your own keywords, or browse by category or product name.
Research Family History
archives.gov/genealogy – If
you want to study your family's history, where do you start? This National
Archives site is a great place, since it includes articles on how to conduct
genealogical research, what types of records are and are not available online,
how to use research tools, and links to genealogical websites. While not all
records are available on this site, you will find information here to help
you prepare to visit the National Archives and other sources.
Anne Frank Online
www.annefrank.org – The
touching story of Anne Frank, captured in her diary, has inspired people all
over the world through books, movies, and plays. You can learn more about
Anne Frank through this site as well. Take a virtual 3D tour of the furnished
rooms of the Secret Annex—discovered in August of 1944—where Anne and seven
others hid from the Nazis. You can also listen to their stories, and place
your leaf in the interactive monument called the Anne Frank Tree.
Best Airline Seats
seatexpert.com – Flying on an
airplane can be uncomfortable for many reasons, not the least of which is a
bad seat! This site can help solve that problem, by providing information
about the best (and worst) seats available on a particular flight. Just type
in your airline, flight number, and date of departure. You'll see seat maps
identifying the best and worst seats, so you'll know what to request before
you book. Need more information about seats or flying in general? Ask the
Seat Expert.
Creative Kid Lunches
www.laptoplunches.com – As
the school year starts, it's time to start thinking about creative lunch
ideas for your kids. This site offers dozens of nutritious ideas for lunch,
prepared bento box style (meaning a box with internal dividers). Try a
vegetable soup lunch that includes orange segments, pretzel sticks, and baked
potato, or a "sandwich and sides" lunch with olives, stir-fried cauliflower,
and fruit. Check out the sections on proper nutrition, how to please picky
eaters, and how to cut down on lunchtime waste. You can also sign up for the
monthly eNewsletter and weekly lunch menu.
