Another Nigerian Scam

Here is a typical letter you may receive. IT IS A SCAM! Don't give into it.
---
My name is Mrs. Betty Jean Price. I am 51yrs old of age, I lived in West Virginia USA. I am a good merchant, I have several industrial companies and good shares in various banks in the world. I spent all my life on investment and corporate business. All the way I lost my husband and two Children in fatal accident that occur in November 5th 2006.I Used to be a very greedy woman at all cost I don't know much and care about people, since then I have been experiencing difficulty to sleep and have rest. Later in the year 2007 September My personnal Doctor sent a letter of medical check up, So sad the result proved that I had lung cancer, which will easily take my life real soon. I found it uneasy to survive myself, because a lot of investment cannot be run and managed by me again. I called up a pastor as i have now given my life to Jesus christ to give me positive thinking on the solution, as my adviser. He ministered to me to share my properties ,wealth , for the less privilaged , motherless babies homes orphanages/people that need money for survival both, students , Widows and Widowers for their investment and for future generations. So I am writing this letter to you to benefit from my investments as the sole Beneficiary to my will as i am now in the intensive care unit dying and the doctors says i have less that one mouth to live, You will have to make sure you use the money for the purpose of humanity to help the less Privilaged , reply me urgently. So that I can make available preparations on that with my attorney before i depart to meet my Heavenly Father. Probably let me know what you really need the money for. Now am a Born again Christian and by his mighty grace a born again Christian. May you be blessed, as you reach me. I will give more information to you as I await your response immediately. Do pray for me as i am critically ill now. In God i Trust.

Spammers overwhelm Google

Spammers have perfected a method for automating pages on Google's Blogger service, a new report from security firm WebSense states.

According to WebSense security analyst Sumeet Prasad, spammers have somehow been able to bypass the field that asks users to prove that they are human. While it's unclear how spammers have managed to defeat Google's CAPTCHA (Completely Automated Public Turing test to Tell Computers and Humans Apart), the threat means that a higher level of risk is associated with Blogger pages, which are traditionally seen as low-risk by antivirus programs. According to Prasad, spammers are now able to use Blogger as a kind of shield against other security software products.

The news means Google will have to redouble its efforts to police Blogger, which is one of the world's most popular blogging platforms and a key point of distribution for AdSense.
