Sorry PayPal, the problem lies in how people deal with email, not with the browser. Anyone clicking on any link in an email message is asking for trouble. If you need that link, copy it, paste it, and then read the URL carefully. If you don’t recognize the domain or the directories after it, don’t use it. You can get to the site using your bookmarks to be safe.

I wrote an entry on identifying phishing last year (sorry, it looks like the quiz is gone; you may have to look elsewhere for more information). Be careful out there…

It’s been a busy time. Let me try to make up for it by posting a link to an article that came out while I was in the U.S. It’s about getting a degree while living and working in Japan.

Notice what a great finish it had! :-D

There are no guarantees it will stay up. I understand links are removed as time goes by.
