I'm currently seeking referral partners. I own a financial agency and help my clients prepare for things like retirement, buying a house, saving for their children's education, getting out of debt, as well as getting their estate prepared (through referrals).

My services are FREE and I love to share referrals.

There's a new phishing scam in town. 'Quishing' uses QR codes to deliver malicious links that can steal your credentials or other sensitive data. Be vigilant, never scan a code you don't trust, and educate employees #CyberSecurity #Quishing #StaySafeOnline

There’s some scary new malware targeting Windows devices.
It’s a fresh variant of a remote access trojan called Bandook which first made its debut back in 2007. It was basically the ‘Swiss Army Knife’ of malware, with a ton of features to wreak havoc. Its main goal? Giving the bad guys remote access to your devices.
This new version targets Windows devices, making its way into systems via phishing emails carrying malicious PDF files.
Once you fall for it and click on the PDF, it extracts the malware and injects its payload into a seemingly innocent program called msinfo32.exe. This is supposed to diagnose your computer issues, but Bandook turns it into a cyber criminal’s playground.
The nasty part doesn't stop there. Bandook goes on to connect to a command-and-control server to receive further sinister instructions. These instructions can include all sorts of actions like stealing info, manipulating files, and... (more)

Hi Alison, I'm William Ross and can help your elderly clients prepare their estate, so they don't leave a bunch of unwanted items for their kin to sort through. I've personally had to go through this process when my father passed away, so I know how hard it can be to sort through things to figure out which is something to keep or something to get rid of. If your clients don't want to leave that type of burden on their kin, recommend them to Ross Junk Removal. I'll work with them personally to determine what they would like to get rid of.
