Military is job of last resort for unemployed masses
March 5th, 2010. Published under Unemployment. No Comments.
02/15/09 By: DH Williams @ 1:39 PM – EST – Many have accurately predicted that the convergence of an imploding economy, unemployment and secret trillion dollar bailouts would lead to more defense spending and the expansion of the Armed Forces. And they were right because as more people lose their jobs all branches of the military are finding it easier to meet recruitment goals. Source: MSNBC The tough job market is making some jobs a lot easier. As the economy goes down, military recruitment goes up. Its a sellers market, as one Marine recruiter put it, and thats with military action in Iraq and Afghanistan. For a change, the Army doesnt have to go out as much to try to attract recruits because more and more are walking through the door. One recruiting officer noticed that theyre a little older than the norm. About 27, 38, 36 years old, all the way up to almost 40, said Sgt. Jermaine Martin. President Obamas plan to increase the military by 100000 is now possible as military service becomes the job of last resort. Obamas defense department is even recruiting soldiers from what they call temporary immigrants, to give them a shot at citizenship. Using waivers for high school graduation and criminal convictions the Pentagon hopes to recruit 1000 into the US Armed Forces this year.

Evidently I am a Creditor for the Now Defunct Debt Collector Mann Bracken LLC
March 5th, 2010. Published under Business Scams, Scams. No Comments.
I received a letter today from the receiver of the now defunct debt collector Mann Bracken LLC. I am assuming I am receiving the notice below because I filed a lawsuit against Mann Bracken for multiple violations of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA). I am in discussions with a consumer protection attorney on how to proceed and file a claim against the estate of Mann Bracken, LLC (702 King Farm Boulevard, Rockville Maryland). If nothing else it is good to know the tables are turned and Mann Bracken is out of business for good.

What Is The Lebanese Loop?
March 5th, 2010. Published under Fraud, Scams. No Comments.
The number of instances of ATM fraud around the world is on the increase, and it represents a huge drain on profits for the banks, as well as a major inconvenience for the victims. One method of ATM fraud that you should be aware of, so that you can avoid it, is known as ‘The Lebanese Loop’. Here’s how this fraud is committed – The unsuspecting victim inserts their card into the ATM as normal. However, the machine will report back that the service is currently unavailable. Unfortunately, their card is not returned. Conveniently, a stranger happens to be passing by and stops to offer some ‘helpful advice’ – they will say that they experienced the exact same problem very recently but worked out how to get their card back. They will then go on to say that all they did, and all you have to now do, is enter your PIN number twice and then press ‘cancel’ and the card will then be returned. If the victim doesn’t realise what is going on here then they may well follow these instructions, only to find that their card is not returned. Moving on, they resolve to contact their bank later in order to retrieve their card. After the victim has left the ATM, the helpful stranger will show their true colours by removing the plastic bag that they hard hidden in the ATM’s card slot. What they had done was to capture the bank card in a manner that allowed the ATM to realise a card was present whilst not being able to read the data on it, hence the error message given to the victim. After ‘looping’ the card out, the scammer is then free to withdraw as much money as they wish as the victim has very kindly showed them their PIN number – twice! Remember, never accept help from strangers where bank or credit cards are concerned – you just can’t be sure of their motives.
