Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.

How to Create Map Views in the Odoo 17 ERPCeline George

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
2. What is Identity Theft?
Identity theft is a form of stealing someone's identity in
which someone pretends to be someone else by assuming
that person's identity, usually as a method to gain access to
resources or obtain credit and other benefits in that
person's name. The victim of identity theft (here meaning
the person whose identity has been assumed by the
identity thief) can suffer adverse consequences if they are
held responsible for the perpetrator's actions. Identity theft
occurs when someone uses another's personally identifying
information, like their name, identifying number, or credit
card number, without their permission, to commit fraud or
other crimes.

3. Is Identity Theft Preventable?
Not entirely. There are some precautions we
can take to help minimize the risk (which we’ll
discuss in other presentations), but there are
many circumstances that are not within our
control.
Identity theft can be a result of a random act or
targeted event.

8. Prevention Tips
• Use strong passwords like iGfcin2009! (I graduated from college in 2009!)
and PINS.
• Open and respond to notifications of data breaches from banks, vendors,
retailers etc.
• Safeguard important documents like: social security card, passport,
medical card, gun permit, birth certificate, drivers license, student id.
• Watch for hidden cameras in brochure holders at ATM’s and skimmers at
gas pumps and bank kiosks.
• Watch for URL in websites. All legitimate sites have http(s):// (s = secure).
• Shred or burn documents before discarding them.
• Pick up mail daily. Don’t make it easy for thieves to apply for credit.
• Invest in anti-virus software. Be suspicious of malware and phishing.
• Be alert. Absence of mail, credit denial, charges on statements.
• Don’t do any financial transactions on an open WI-Fi network.
• Frequently monitor bank , credit card and investment accounts.
9. You could be at great risk if…
• Suddenly you stop receiving mail.
• You get phone calls from collectors regarding debts
that are not yours.
• Your bank accounts have been compromised.
• You’ve been locked out of your online accounts or
emails.
• Your automatic deposits are missing.
• You receive mail for matters not initiated by you.
• You are arrested for criminal acts you did not
commit.
10. How to protect yourself and help others!

resources, and solutions.
• Become an advocate and share your knowledge.
• Get protection.
