This company is aware of the fraud. I notified them. This is a fictious check.

The California company is real. It is an upstanding company with many employees. If this check was ever honored by a financial institution there is no doubt it would cause some degree of hardship. I doubt it would be disabling, but, the loss of nearly $100k would be an issue in any company's cash flow.

It was never clear to me that the incident was reported to the California State prosecutor or any other law enforcement. In my opinion it should be and now probably will get some attention. 

To be completely clear, this company is a victim of identity theft. I have another check and they are remarkably similar. As a matter of fact it was easy to recognize the second fictious check after first seeing this one. I makes me believe the person producing these checks are the same individual. 

I have a hunch. Nothing more than a hunch. I think it is a man and/or woman in New York City with a name of Gonzalez. I have no real facts to back that up, simply names within a friends list that seemed to make sense to me.

The account numbers on the check are not real. 

This is the envelope it came in. Very funny stuff. It came from a "fulfillment center."

That is the back of the envelope. 

Here again, the definition of terrorist is when a person or group use a civilization's infrastructure against them. They are completely using the business infrastructure against the country and citizens. This is an intelligence operation and it is a terrorist organization.

I will continue this at another time.

Thank  you for your interest. Tell our Senior Citizens you love them and they don't need people they don't know to make them feel they have a purpose.

 

I want to get back to discussing Untied Nations and why it is such a terrible entity in the world.

American Senior Citizens and anyone else that becomes involved with this organized crime network is in for a lot of personal problems after their information is obtained. Let's start with these factious checks they produce. 

The checks can be deposited in any bank, credit union or financial institution. In some instances it is decided by Untied Nations that a separate dedicated account would be best. Why? Because they would have complete control over the movement of monies. Yes, that was movement of monies.

These checks have no value, so when they are processed by a financial institution they are treated as if a check with full face value. I am not sure why the financial institutions do this, but, it is probably due to the idea anything is possible with computerization including having money immediately even though the owner of the account just deposited a printed piece of paper called a check.

In my opinion financial institutions are like sheep over a cliff, if one does it they all do it, no different than landlords of apartments. The reason of course is competition for business and what the market will bear.

Electronic checks. These are slid into an account when the owner has relinquished the username and password. Along with the username and password Untied Nations and/or their operative has the account information and any other requirements such as security questions.

The electronic checks deposited conveniently to bank accounts these days are not necessarily held for processing. The electronic check, the ones everyone takes a picture of to deposit over the internet, will be deposited in it's entirety as a full cash deposit. Where these checks become actual cash has to happen within a short period of time after the electronic deposit is made and before the financial institution realizes the check is fraudulent.

So, the best way to turn a factious check into cash is to use the Check Card at an ATM and remove the cash before the bank is aware of the false status of the check. Once the cash is removed, there is no going back. The organization and/or operative has enough of a hold on the owner of the account that the cash can then  be deposited into a crypto ATM. Oh, yeah, crypto definitely enters the picture. But, remember up to the point where the cash is removed from the account there is no electronic footprint by the organization or it's operatives. The operatives are the ones that are acting as the love connection.

So, the damage is done and who indeed is responsible? The owner of the account. That means when the electronic check becomes a reality that it is false and has been acted on to receive cash, the owner of the account becomes liable for it. Now, in most instances this can be reported as identity theft and the financial institutions proceed to process it as such, but, there is no real way of finding the fraudulent person that produced it as they are in a far different place than the owner of the account.

Is it truly identity theft? The information was relinquished, right? It depends on how people look at it. An older adult that has become attached to someone else regardless of being a stranger and feels they have a sincere connection to them is responding to an emergency in that relationship. The operative or the organization has simply set the scene. So, the owner of the account isn't really expecting to have allowed identity theft. They were presented with a way to solve an emergency within the relationship. The owner of the account believes every aspect of the circumstances the operative presents. So, it sincerely is identity theft in that the owner of the account was conned into being cooperative.

The financial institutions are aware of these problems, but, treat them as a business cost and move on beyond the incident. The owner of the account, of course, feels as a fool perhaps, but, that is their problem to cope with and not that of the financial institution or the operative. The operative may very well be grateful for the monies received and relieved that the emergency is now addressed. In that is also justification for the false document in that the relationship is satisfied without any real consequences.

The dynamics of the fraud are very complicated. It isn't a matter of simply making this a crime and assigning senior citizens to prison. The entire interaction between operative, adult, and financial institutions is well groomed and highly effective. This is an intelligence operation of which the law cannot sincerely hold an innocent party responsible for. The senior citizen is already suffering financial losses in most cases.

The best defense against these fires is local control and local knowledge.

Professionals in these jobs can easily be required, if not already, to make a daily entry to an official log recording observation that may or may not be climate related. They are great people and very, very smart folks.

Laws and rules have to be in place to enforce, which is reliant upon a legislature and governor that cares about what is important. Climate can be as violent as the next tornado in New Jersey or as gradual as a drying area of trees or grass. The climate aspect of conservation should be somewhat second nature to the profession, but, may require fine tuning with additional educational events to existing officers. Once such an event is held, the immediate recognition of the problem will result in the classroom coming alive with information. They really are delightful folks with a lot to say if asked.

Conservation Officer Job Specifications (click here) Employees in this job are responsible for the enforcement of laws and rules protecting the public health and regulating the conservation and use of the natural resources of the state. Conservation Officers are peace officers and are also empowered to enforce general criminal laws of the state and enforce the motor vehicle code, drug laws, criminal sexual misconduct laws, etc. There are five classification levels in this job.

MICHIGAN (WLUC) - Wife, mother, daughter, sister, aunt, niece, caregiver and friend. (click here) The women who serve in the Michigan Department of Natural Resources Law Enforcement Division are recognized by more than one of these terms, in addition to “officer.”

In 1897, Huldah Neal became the first state game warden, paving the career path forward for women. Neal, from Grand Traverse County, was the first female conservation officer in the United States, according to media reports.

Today, there are 21 women who serve at all ranks of the DNR Law Enforcement Division. Like their male counterparts, they have sworn under oath to protect the state’s natural resources, environment and the health and safety of the public through effective law enforcement and education....

When I go walking I always notice the scene around me. Day after day there may be different characteristics along the walk. Those minor changes can be a clue that climate is becoming unforgiving as it became in Hawaii.

For as long as I can remember I have always blogged that local authority and local economies are the strongest and most effective ways of people power. This is no different. 

There is rarely a town that doesn't have a local authority on the biotic content of the area. They won't be the most popular people because they will stand up to defend wildlife over the interests of petroleum companies. However, in circumstances like this minor changes in the biotic content of the area would have been invaluable to report and RECORD.

Sometimes the folks most reliable about nature will be avid gardeners or they might have the most beautiful flower beds of native plants. They might be the leadership of conservation specialists in clubs like Sierra or other local clubs.

Drought that leads to deadly wildfires can be over a decade or more of time in the making, but, in the case of Hawaii there was a change in the climate beginning last year when a drought was found to occur in November, 2022 (click here). This devastation occurred in less than a year. It is completely out of character for drought. 

The best way to realize the climate has had devastating effects on the land is observation. Local folks will clamor to defend the land if there is any indication that development or changes to the land by human beings intent on building stuff or cutting down forests will occur. Those local people know the land and know what DISRUPTION will do in the way of harming the natural world.

The bottom line is that society at a local level MUST listen to the concern. Those that love the natural world, know what they are looking at. They are bird watchers that know if trees are cut down their favorite sites and sounds will disappear besides the beauty of the trees.

People have to pay attention. When their lawns dry out they water them to bring back the beauty, but, it needs to go beyond watering cans or sprinklers. When there are dry lawns and struggling bushes and trees, one has to ask why. 

At one time in the USA there were bountiful numbers of agricultural agents at the county level. There were also conservation officers. Somehow, state and federal governments found it better to cut the budget and say they have cut taxes than realize the intense value of these professionals ESPECIALLY when Earth is experiencing a deadly climate crisis. Here again, money is more powerful than people. It shows. YES, THAT IS A JUDGEMENT OF OUR SOCIETY!

Analysis by Glenn Kessler

....Tuberville’s office (click here) says his primary residence is an Auburn house that records show is owned by his wife and son. But campaign finance reports and his signature on property documents indicate that his home is actually a $3 million, 4,000-square-foot beach house he has lived in for nearly two decades in Santa Rosa Beach, Fla., located in the Florida Panhandle about 90 miles south of Dothan.

The Alabama sale in July was notarized by a person who lives in Santa Rosa Beach, indicating Tuberville was there on July 14. His wife, Suzanne Tuberville, a licensed real estate agent in Florida, has worked at a Santa Rosa Beach real estate firm since the start of this year; she does not have an Alabama real estate license.

The senator also signed in person a deed, notarized in Florida’s Walton County, where Santa Rosa Beach is located, on June 30 — during a two-week period starting June 26 that was designated in the Senate as a “State Work Period,” when lawmakers often return to their states to meet with constituents. Tuberville’s office issued a news release saying the senator met with local officials on three days of that period, June 26-28, including in Dothan, but was silent on the rest of it....

A tourist decided it would be a political bonus to drop cocaine in the White House. What next?

July 5, 2023
By Tyler Pager and Peter Hermann

Officials are investigating (click here) how a small bag of cocaine ended up in the White House on Sunday, when it was found on the ground floor of the West Wing near where visitors taking tours are instructed to leave their cellphones, according to three people familiar with the investigation.

The discovery of a powdery white substance on Sunday evening prompted a brief evacuation of the premises. Subsequent testing confirmed it was cocaine, said Anthony Guglielmi, a spokesman for the Secret Service.

Guglielmi said “an investigation into the cause and manner” of how the substance entered the White House is ongoing. There is no indication that the cocaine’s discovery disrupted White House operations....

It is a climate crisis.

 The Maui residents want to know why they weren’t notified. Really? 

No one expected Hawaii to have wildfires. This is ALL uncharted territory where warning signs never existed before.

I have no patience with this whining.

Where were the residents of Maui when the scientists were warning for DECADES there was a heating planet due to anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions? Where were you?!

Now the price has to be paid in the way of deaths, changing and charred landscape, the loss of civilization and quite possibly the loss of a beautifully benevolent planet that sustains life in the range of 98.6 F.

I have no sympathy for anyone.
