Identity Theft!

ATTORNEY'S ADVICE -- NO CHARGE. Read this and make a copy for your files in case you need to refer to it someday. Maybe we should all take some of his advice!

A corporate attorney sent the following out to the employees in his
company.

1. The next time you order checks have only your initials (instead of first
name) and last name put on them. If someone takes your checkbook, they will not know if you sign your checks with just your initials or your first
name, but your bank will know how you sign your checks.
2. Do not sign the back of your credit cards. Instead, put "PHOTO ID
REQUIRED".

3. When you are writing checks to pay on your credit card accounts, DO NOT put the complete account number on the "For" line. Instead, just put the
last four numbers. The credit card company knows the rest of the number,
and anyone who might be handling your check as it passes through all the
check processing channels won't have access to it.

4. Put your work phone # on your checks instead of your home phone. If you have a PO Box use that instead of your home address. If you do not have a PO Box, use your work address. Never have your SS# printed on your checks. (DUH!) You can add it if it is necessary. But if you have it printed,
anyone can get it.

5. Place the contents of your wallet on a photocopy machine. Do both sides
of each license, credit card, etc. You will know what you had in your
wallet and all of the account numbers and phone numbers to call and cancel.
Keep the photocopy in a safe place. I also carry a photocopy of my passport
when I travel either here or abroad. We've all heard horror stories about
fraud that's committed on us in stealing a name, address, Social Security
number, credit cards.

Unfortunately, I, an attorney, have firsthand knowledge because my wallet
was stolen last month. Within a week, the thieve(s) ordered an expensive
monthly cell phone package, applied for a VISA credit card, had a credit
line approved to buy a Gateway computer, received a PIN number from DMV to change my driving record information online, and more. But here's some critical information to limit the damage in case this happens to you or
someone you know:

1. We have been told we should cancel our credit cards immediately. But the > key is having the toll free numbers and your card numbers handy so you know whom to call. Keep those where you can find them.

2. File a police report immediately in the jurisdiction where your credit
cards, etc., were stolen. This proves to credit providers you were
diligent, and this is a first step toward an investigation(if there ever is one).
But here's what is perhaps most important of all : (I never even thought to
do this.)

3. Call the 3 national credit reporting organizations immediately to place
a fraud alert on your name and Social Security number. I had never heard of
doing that until advised by a bank that called to tell me an application for
credit was made over the Internet in my name. The alert means any company
that checks your credit knows your information was stolen, and they have to
contact you by phone to authorize new credit.

By the time I was advised to do this, almost two weeks after the theft, all
the damage had been done. There are records of all the credit checks
initiated by the thieves' purchases, none of which I knew about before
placing the alert. Since then, no additional damage has been done, and the
thieves threw my wallet away This weekend (someone turned it in). It seems
to have stopped them dead in their tracks.

Now, here are the numbers you always need to contact about your wallet,
etc., has been stolen:

1.) Equifax: 1-800-525-6285
2.) Experian (formerly TRW): 1-888-397-3742
3.) Trans Union: 1-800-680-7289
4.) Social Security Administration (fraud line): 1-800-269-0271

We pass along jokes on the Internet; we pass along just about everything.
But if you are willing to pass this information along, it could really help

Yesterday was a long first day ....

Yesterday was a long first day in the hay fields of summer! Jake and I and Great Grandma got all the tractors up and going... and things all hooked up to them to go to the hay field. Jake changed the oil and filters in all of them, cleaned out the mower, greased the equipment, and checked and filled the transmissions... we overlooked the power steering on the Ford, but on the trip over to the Kastle Place, I found out that we did... haha.. I could not hardly keep it in the road. It does have the cylinder under the tractor all wet, so it's leaking out... but anyway, we have it filled up and ready to go. Great Grandma made her usual 4 trips to town to get oils, filters, etc. It would not be summer if she didn't do that, haha..... Jake is going to mow this am while I catch up a couple of websites. Then he heads off to work, and we will rake it this evening. We will be working in the north love grass field on Kastle Place, as it's one of the smaller fields, and if I remember right, the baler is having a closing problem - one side is not catching and the back gate is sprung. It that's correct we will try to bale the North side tomorrow and zip the baler to John Deere to fix it for us...
Judge's have started working the wheat ground on Kastle Place. I have not asked Kenny how the wheat did, but probably not to well. They were getting docked about 10% for trash in grain.. rye, and the moisture was high, so not sure...
Looks like summer is here, 100 degree days forecast, and NO RAIN still... wow.. just wish it would shower some.. would be really cool... haha..
Austyn has his last TBall game this evening, and if I get home in time from raking, I am going to try to make it.
Ann did really well with Madison yesterday. She took off a couple of weeks to help Heather make the adjustment from home to work again.. and besides.. she is doing what she loves and is really good at.... actually she never misses work and has lots of time she is losing so she decided to take off some... I think she needs to do this when we can go back down to new orleans... yelp, I sure do...
welp.. gotta close this deal out.. have a great day.... I do know Jonathan is in Tulsa, Heather had a good first day back at work... Paul goes back to work this coming weekend. And I know that yesterday, Madison had on her WHITE dress.... wow.. Heather, how long will that last??? girl in white.. haha.. in the red dirt of Oklahoma? Bet Andrew will fix that deal, huh??? He will help her "color" it.. haha..
later all.. enjoy the day

Wow.. the end of the week is here!

Hard to believe the end of the week is here. Seems like only yesterday we were all together last Saturday, having a great visit and celebrating Jake's Birthday and Father's Day. Then on Thursday, Great Grandma Moffat celebrated her 86th Birthday! Austyn called needing a baby horse to grow up and ride. I heard that Grandma Ann is taking off the next to weeks to help with Madison as Heather goes back to work on Monday. Austyn has a ball game tomorrow morning, and we all are heading to OKC to celebrate Fannie Moffat's 92nd birthday... She is the wife of Mervil Moffat, Dad's older brother who dairyed north of El Reno. And we also are re celebrating Great Grandma Moffat's Birthday, too. We tried to get Ann's brother, Mike to come along, but he is busy working the wheat ground at Helena, and won't be able to come. He has a birthday on the 28th of this month, too.
Austyn, I did call about something today, and we might need to take a short trip next Saturday morning to Circle F Stable, if this is ok with your mom and dad... I think you will like what I have arranged. It has to do with horses,learning about them, and getting to ride too.. haha..
Well, don't know much else.. Oh, yes, this is the week Kaitlyn found out she has asthma... and started medication for it. Jonathan moved to a new office at work. He can now see the door, and since he can, he is not sure what that means.. haha..
I had a neighbor stop by thinking of opening up a feed store in Stillwater last night. I had to be honest with him... and I think he is still wanting too.
And then.... I wish I had a picture of the new piece Phillip stopped by with last night, but it was a pottery piece that was really cool. kind of looked like an old piece for ancient Egypt!! Lots of design on it and very irregular. He had constructed it by hand in coils.. really cool. Will put a pic on here later. It was truly amazing! I am proud of him...
Heard Paul is heading off to a gun auction tomorrow. He has quite a collection, but I think he is always looking!! Heather is doing better, health wise too. Well, don't know much else, but wanted to share the few brain cells I have working.. haha..

Jake's at work. He is a bit tired, working three jobs. I think he needs a break, and time for Jake. Sometimes he is a bit gripy..haha...

Can't wait till tomorrow afternoon.. It will be cool being with everyone again.

We need rain badly... I mean badly!!

Love to all.... Enjoy the evening..
