Look guys and girls, I know I can be a cnut. Enough of that.
I am trying to make us all aware of a new wave of fraud.
Forensic fraud.
Ok, some wise arse is going to say that their DNA is not possible within
the internet.
These people use whatever means they can to rob you of your money.
Forensic Fraud comes from your mobile phone or computer, meaning that they
can find out with forensic software just how much money they can steal from
you! Your post code is enough, and this code is so bloody easy to find.
Just be aware of this please.

Thank you for the warnings, Baz. It means we're all forewarned and
forearmed. I think further comments on this will fall on stony ground,
however. Probably better to get on with your own enjoyment of this
group.

Yes Sacha,
But on barren ground, not stony.

I suggest you stop reading scare stories in the Daily Mail or Express or
which ever paranoid right wing tabloid rag is feeding your delusions.
Get a grip. There are risks to being on the internet, but they can be
managed with a decent firewall and suitable anti virus and malware tools
will go a long way towards protecting you. Trouble is people click on
links and allow unknown code to run. Today even major players distribute
unsigned driver code online which is a total disgrace.
BTW: Knowing a postcode gives you next to nothing in a city.
You should probably be a lot more scared of 118 people search
http://www.118.com/people-search.mvc
Or the fully searchable copy of the (edited) electoral roll for England
given away with a computer magazine a few years back.
If you are really worried about online banking security you can run
something like Trusteer Rapport as recommended by some banks.
http://www.trusteer.com/product/trusteer-rapport
This blocks a most of the potential weak points in common browsers and
adds another layer of protection to secure online transactions.
