Author: Bad Credit Unsecured Personal Loans Offer Alternatives to Cash Advance Payday Loans and High Interest Credit Cards
Posted on | January 25, 2011 | No Comments
With the overall economy still greatly struggling with the unemployment rate above 9% it comes as no surprise to see many individuals looking for money help. Some ways to borrow money that have become very popular over the last several years include bad credit unsecured personal loans, cash advance payday loans and high interest rate credit cards.
Before deciding to borrow money through any loan type is always a wise decision to understand how the process works. It is also a very good decision to make sure that there is an exit strategy when it comes to paying off this money. Unfortunately, many people end up borrowing money having no clue as to how they will pay it off.
This is one of the main reasons that millions of Americans are finding it very difficult to get out of debt. If these same Americans have created an exit plan before borrowing money than there is a very good chance that they would not be having revolving debt problems in January or February of 2011.
It is generally the case that customers will go through a credit check process to borrow money through a bad credit unsecured personal loan or credit card. When it comes to cash advance payday loans there is no credit check process but customers will pay upfront fees usually between $15 and $35 for every $100 borrowed.
While these fees do not seem to be overly excessive it is still the case that they can add up very quickly when several hundred dollars borrowed. It is also true that these fees will reset each time a customer receives a paycheck and does not pay the loan off in full. Some customers have ended up paying more in fees than the actual loan amount which cause huge debt problems down the road.

Police: Banks to be on look out for suspect
Police said an adult female has been using a stolen Wells Fargo Debit card. She enters credit unions and banks and asks for a cash advance on the card. Police said when it does not work she calls her bank and then the person on the other end of the phone directs the teller what to do on the Veriphone or other type of card reading system.
Police said the transaction is basically forced through and approved by confusing the system from the directions the person on the other end gives to the teller. The amount is then approved and cash given to the suspect.
Police said the suspect is a black adult female with black curly hair that is shoulder length. She is in her late 20s to early 30s between 54 and 56 tall.
Bank employees, please be extra observant and if you see her, contact the police department as soon as possible. Citizens, if you have any information relating to this case, please contact the St. George Police Department at 435-627-4300.

Ombudsman orders dismissal of 2 treasurers, councilor
The Ombudsman has ordered the dismissal of two treasurers and one councilor over cash-related offenses.
An article posted on the Ombudsman website said, Ombudsman Merceditas Gutierrez ordered the dismissal from the service of:
De Jesus was ordered dismissed after she failed to produce the cash shortage of P521,984.45 she incurred from May 9 to November 27, 2007.
Despite receipt of the demand letters issued by the Commission on Audit (COA), de Jesus failed to produce the cash shortage she incurred, the Ombudsman said.
Gutierrez ordered the filing of a criminal charge for Malversation of Public Funds against De Jesus.
Gutierrez also ordered the filing of charges against Rebugio, who was accused of allocating P15,000 from his countrywide development fund for buying goats to be dispersed to his district in May 2002.
However, records showed that he did not buy any goat or use the allocated amount for the purpose.
He also reportedly made a cash advance of P10,000 in March 2005 for the payment of his registration fee and traveling expenses during the 6th Philippine Councilors League (PCL) held in Pasay City on March 8 to 10, 2005.
He also received another cash advance of P10,000 in May 2006, supposedly for attending the PCL from May 14 to 26 in Olongapo City.
The Ombudsman said Rebugio failed to attend both activities and to return the said cash advances.
As for Molar, she was ordered charged with Malversation of Public Funds for misappropriating P25,000 granted by the Olongapo City government for the livelihood program of Barangay Barretto in November 2004.
The amount was to be loaned to possible beneficiaries at a low interest.
However, she had never reported on the collection of the amount loaned to borrowers, including its corresponding interest, the Ombudsman said.
Molar failed to submit her counter-affidavit when directed to submit one, it added.
In malversation, the failure of an accountable officer to account for such public funds or property within the period prescribed by law shall be prima facie evidence that she appropriated the same for her personal use, the Ombudsman said.
The same is true even in the absence of direct proof of misappropriation so long as there is evidence of shortage in her account which she was unable to satisfactorily explain, the Ombudsman added. VVP, GMANews.TV

Zeus malware now targets online payment providers
The Zeus malware continues to evolve, diversifying away from its target bank sites and their customers, and over to sites with user credentials that allow assets that have a financial value.
The move mirrors the evolution of card fraud in the 1980s and 1990s, when fraudsters initially targeted banks for cash advance fraud, then, as the banks developed their internal anti-fraud resources, moved over to quasi-cash platforms such as foreign currency purchases and then over to retail and e-tail sales outlets.
The parallels between card fraud evolution and the evolution of Zeus is reflected in the attack vectors against a few websites Trusteer researchers have identified as being targeted.
Money Bookers is an online payment provider allowing you to make online payments without submitting your personal information each time. We have found 26 different Zeus configurations targeting Money Bookers.
This usually indicates that fraudsters have a solid business around this target. For comparison, this number doesnt fall short of some of the highly targeted banks and brands in the world. For those of you who dont know what a Zeus configuration file is its basically a set of instructions that Zeus gets on which websites to target and what to do with them (steal login credentials, tamper with HTML webpages, etc). Different configurations represent different work efforts of targeting online websites.
Another interesting target is Web Money. This is another online payment solution that claims to have more than 12 million active users. Web Money is targeted by 13 different Zeus configurations, with the last one released January 16th, indicating that this is hot target for fraudsters. As with all the other online payment providers, Zeus steals login information and other sensitive information of Web Money users.
Another popular target is Nochex, a UK based online payment company specializing in smaller online businesses. Nochex is targeted by 12 different Zeus configurations with the last one released in January 16th.
While these three examples represent online payment providers which have been targeted for months, there are new comers as well. One example is netSpend. This website has been recently started to be targeted by Zeus. netSpend is a prepaid card provider. You add money to your account and use you netSpend account to pay online.
The last example for today is e-gold which provides a money-like currency and wire transfer services. This website has been indicted in the past for violating money laundering regulations. This website is targeted by 16 different Zeus configuration. Could it be that fraudsters are targeting other fraudsters?
The genuine login page for e-gold asks the user for the account number, passphrase and uses CAPTCHA technology to help prevent automated attacks.
On a Zeus-infected machine (with an e-gold targeting configuration), the malware injects an additional element into the login page that requests the alternate password – plus the email associated with the account, which can then presumably be tapped for back-door access to the account.
The following screenshot shows the login page after it has been tampered with by Zeus (the injected fields are identified using a red rectangle):
Trusteer believes this trend of targeting online payment providers will continue as more retailers allow these alternate payment methods with their Web sites.
What can be done to counter the problem of Zeus-enabled credential fraud against a diversified range of online payment providers?
Customers of all sites where purchases are involved need to protect their PC or access terminal, using secure browsing services and solutions that specialize in protecting online payments and online banking.
Users should also avoid using public access computers, as well as computers you do not own and therefore have direct control over.
Retailers and payment providers, meanwhile, need to assess the risk associated with their customers endpoint devices. They should, we believe, reject transactions from accounts used over insecure endpoints.
