Sony’s Welcome Back program is ready to sign you up. I’ve got details on the Identity protection program right her at Clevver Games.

Hi everyone I’m Andrea Rene with the latest info from Sony regarding their cyber attack. It has been over a month now since the Playstation Network was taken down in response to a security breach at one of Sony’s facilities.

The Playstation Network is back online and running smoothly, but the Store is still waiting for deployment. While you wait to download the free games Sony has offered, you can enroll in their Identity Theft Protection program. The service is called AllClear ID Plus and it provides alerts of fraud, insurance coverage, and access to fraud investigators.

If you’re a PSN or Qriocity active account holder as of April 20th you’re eligible for 12 months of free service. To get registered click on the link in the story info below which takes you to Sony’s website. This announcement couldn’t come any sooner as it was discovered that earlier today there was yet ANOTHER security breach with some on Sony’s international websites.

Sony Ericsson’s Canadian website had a breach that put 2,000 users’ data at risk along with attacks on Sony in Thailand, Japan, and Greece. Seriously, someone has it out for them! As if losing over $3 billion dollars from the earthquake in Japan wasn’t bad enough. Can we just kiss and make-up already? Thanks :)

Alright that’s the latest Sony update from Clevver Games. Make sure you’re following us on Twitter for all the hottest gaming news. I’m Andrea Rene and I’ll see you next time.

Computer Security & Identity Theft Author/Speaker John Sileo


http://www.thinklikeaspy.com/audience_testimonials.php Identity theft speaker and expert John Sileo speaking on this video about protecting your computer from security breaches. The professional ID Theft speaker gives keynotes seminars and workshops on personal and business privacy.
According to a new article in the Wall Street Journal, cybercrime has significantly risen 22.3% in 2009 from 2008. Identity thieves and white collar criminals have taken to the internet and caused over $550 million in reported losses. There were also over 60,000 more complaints of cybercrime in 2009. Many experts say the plummeting economy is responsible for the great rise last year.

The article goes on to discuss the new and more technologically savvy way that criminals are stealing our information.

Criminals tactics also are changing, with a growing number of crimes involving malicious applications installed on mobile devices and embedded in news and celebrity gossip Web sites. In this type of crime, Web criminals are using search-engine optimization to allow fake Web sites to rise to the top of searches. When users click on the links or pop-ups, malware or key loggers infect their computers, usually with the intent of hijacking personal and financial information such as bank passwords and account information. Scam artists also are switching from email to social-networking sites to perpetrate phishing scams designed to steal sensitive information from victims.

Top scams now include nondelivery of ordered merchandise, fraudulent emails claiming to be from the FBI seeking personal and financial information, identity theft, credit-card fraud, online auction fraud, and job and investment scams. Online auction fraud, which was a top complaint in the past, has declined and losses have fallen as awareness and auction-site security protections have improved, officials said.

In order to minimize your risk, share as little personal and identifying information on the internet as possible. The less that is out there, the less there is to steal. Verify web addresses and dont click on unknown links or advertisements that come through on email and other sites. If you are the least bit suspicious dont enter financial information onto the site!
