Extreme Email Fraud & Its implications

Rate: 1 Flag

I am posting the following appalling email I recieved and writing this post about it, for several reasons.

1.  It is a perfect example of data mining.

2.  It is a perfect example of a very bizarre, and wierd set of "niche Interests" and multiple sources of information in one email, evidence to be discussed in a moment.

3.  It should make you finally understand why so much fuss has been made over things like FISA, Obama's appalling continuation of some of the WORST Bush policies, and it's wakey wakey time.

4.  It is a perfect example of the kind of online marketing, data mining, cookie information storage and sharing. Across an awfully broad spectrum of government, private and international sources.

5.  It should make you very, very uncomfortable about where this government is heading.

6.  It should make you very, very uncomfortable about what is going on in the wars we are fighting and what it is doing to the consciences, if not completely illegal activities of this nation, not to mention the soldiers doing the fighting of it. Or their superiors within DoD and the National Security Complex.  Not to mention Congress and the White House.

But first the email:

soldiersemailtomefromIraqscam

1.  The reason I know this is a fraud is because this is a very similar kind of email that I seem to be getting a lot of these days, which will eventually ask you for even more personal information, like bank account numbers and social security numbers, which I shouldn't have to tell you, you NEVER give out online unless you trust the source.

2.  While some of the acts in this email are probably true and rumours of soldiers illegally looting lots of cash have been floating for years, not to mention other illegal activity by our soldiers in Iraq, it is very disturbing that I would be getting this email now, particularly given other information contained within it, whether or not it is is visible to you.

3.  It is a perfect example of the kinds of information sharing, legal and illegal that are going on.  Apparently internationally.  How do I know that?  See examples below.

4.  The megatext of the email itself had information and a URL address, right down to the file directory information, of an image and a map containing that browser, as well as it's graphical image on my last blog.  That cannot happen by accident.  And the timing is more than suspicious.  And who has information to that kind of information?  Especially when used in conjunction with other clues in this email?  The White House and the national security complex.

5.  The email admits itself that this person I don't know, got my name and personal information from one of the many social networking sites. And is an attempt to gather even more information, such as social security numbers and bank account information.  Which means that browsers and telecoms not to mention other corporations, are sharing personal information between themselves about YOU.

6.  The line at the bottom of the email, whether you recognize it or not, is a new form of integrated "social marketing" and an advertisement for a MOBILE PHONE.

7.  The original attempt that I used to download the email, brought up as a default a Microsoft browser text document.  I don't use that browser.

8.  All of this, along with the White House's own lawbreaking activities (including the fact that the White House's own website is 508 noncompliant (a violation of disability law), allows Google to collect your personal information through cookies everytime you click on a video on the site for their own economic gain, which I believe is also illegal, not to mention the product placement the government is giving a monopoly, which is at a minimum highly unethical, considering that the head of the company sits on the President's advisory panel.  

But also means that Google is probably in on this too.  Along with one of the telephone providers Obama so nicely gave legal immunity to for blatently breaking the law.

The combination of all of these factors should make you very, very scared.

And hopefully get off your asses and do something about it.  Even if it's turning these kinds of emails into the "authorities" although I doubt they'll do anything about it, since I suspect their complicity in this as well.  For various reasons.

And if all this sounds paranoid, metatext and coding language doesn't lie.  In fact I'm not even sure that it's capable of it, last time I checked.

But what it does mean is that Obama has an Oedipal Complex he needs some serious psychoanalyzing on.  Not to mention a vision of where he's taking this country (not to mention a glimpse of a very twisted psyche).  Even greater than the normal sociopathology of politicians.

And should make you start thinking of voting all the bums out of office, no matter the party, starting next year.   Not to mention realizing that our national leader is a pathological power seeker, intent on undermining the Constitution. 

This email breaks so many laws it's not even funny.

And the combination of factors, including the players, the technology involved, the coding used, not to mention where it came from, and the timing, are all proof of something that should make you think very carefully about what Obama is planning on doing.

And says some very disturbing things about the lawbreaking activities of this administration, it's reluctance to punish the lawbreaking activities of the previous administration, is what I believe is further example of the Obama "enemies list" (FISA after all was passed by Congress after Watergate.)  And Nixon did alot of illegal wiretapping.   Not to mention contained such a similar list.  

Not to mention evidence of databases that might be used to conglomerate such information, plus "targetted marketing" (that's the text banner advertising inducing me to try the mobile phone they so conveniently provided the link for at the bottom of the email.

So put your thinking caps on, but not for too long.

And realize we are not in Kansas anymore.

Thank you for a detailed and thoughtful insight as to this practice. We certainly are not in Kansas anymore - but the larger question is - "were we really ever in Kansas?" Keep up then good writing.
Are you pathologically paranoid or just naive? This is just a variation of the Nigerian email scheme that's been going around for years. It's been adapted to appear more current. Jeez. Take a look at snopes.com.
Thanks so much for the sexist and demeaning remark. NO I am not ignorant of the above. What is appalling however, is that that the metatext contains specific information from a blogpost about US FOREIGN POLICY I OPPOSE.

And for your information, most people don't know that the White House is 508 noncompliant (name that law you ignoramous), what cookies are, and most people in this country are still technologically illiterate. If not literally so. Thirty million Americans cannot READ.

I post my blogposts to educate people. NOT BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT.

But naturally since you are, from what I can tell of your name a guy, and therefore, naturally consider yourself superior in all things IT, just because you have a penis. That's called violation of Title XII and is actionable. AS IN YOU CAN GET SUED. Not to mention a violation of the ADA, in which assumption of any disability is also a violation of federal law. Good going, you just got yourself in legal hotwater over your stupid and uninformed comment.

And should make you think twice before posting such trash ever again, particularly on any blog site I publish.
