At A Loss For Words

The following pitch was received by a journalist friend of mine yesterday.  I will not comment on it.  I guess this is why Kevin and I started this blog in the first place. Read at your own risk.

"Robin Williams’ tragic death leaves consumers at high risk of identity theft. The 1.2 billion people already endangered from the massive Russian hacking just got more vulnerable as identity thieves lure curious citizens with links promising details about Robin Williams.

Cyber security expert Steve Weisman, founder of www.scamicide.com, author of Identity Theft Alert & seasoned media interview can talk about: 

· Celebrity tragedies and how they endanger consumers – Amy Winehouse, Whitney Houston and now Robin Williams

· How to spot tainted emails, texts and Facebook links to ‘unreleased police photos’

· The urgency of cyber security in light of the recent Russian breach 

· Likelihood of spear phishing and increased cybercrime following the Russian breach

· Tips for consumers to protect themselves

Would you like to set up an interview with Steve Weisman?

Thanks for your time"
