Cybersecurity is key
When cybersecurity is inadequate, it can lead to stolen identity and financial loss. Most scams and scammers have two main goals--to steal your money and your identity. You should know what to look for, how they work, and what to do, so you can protect yourself and your finances.

Maintaining cybersecurity is very important, even for consumers. It is not simply something that concerns large corporations and other businesses. Here are some steps you can take:

Do not open email from people you don’t know. If you are unsure whether an email you received is legitimate, try contacting the sender directly via other means. Do not click on any links in an email unless you are sure it is safe.
Be careful with links and new website addresses. Malicious website addresses may appear almost identical to legitimate sites. Scammers often use a slight variation in spelling or logo to lure you. Malicious links can also come from friends whose email has unknowingly been compromised, so be careful.
Secure your personal information. Before providing any personal information, such as your date of birth, Social Security number, account numbers, and passwords, be sure the website is secure.
Stay informed on the latest cyber threats. Keep yourself up to date on current scams. The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) can provide you with Alerts.
Use Strong Passwords. Strong passwords are critical to online security. Review CISA guidance on Choosing and Protecting Passwords.
Keep your software up to date and maintain preventative software programs. Keep all of your software applications up to date on your computers and mobile devices. Install software that provides antivirus, firewall, and email filter services.
Update the operating systems on your electronic devices. Make sure your operating systems (OSs) and applications are up to date on all of your electronic devices. Older and unpatched versions of OSs and software are the target of many hacks. Read the CISA security tip on Understanding Patches and Software Updates for more information.
Here are some trending scams to look out for:

Money Mules

Scammers use people as “money mules” to receive or move money obtained from victims of fraudulent activities. Scammers proactively recruit people to be part of fraudulent activity without their knowing it. If a stranger asks you to open a bank account, or asks for access to your bank account or debit card, be extremely guarded. A scammer may ask you to move money and direct you to deposit funds into your bank account, or ask you to purchase virtual currency or gift cards for someone else’s benefit. In these scenarios, you may be unknowingly hiding someone else’s money for them. Be very cautious if a stranger asks you to receive or forward packages containing money or goods, which may also be part of a similar fraudulent scheme.

If you believe you have engaged in, or contributed to, money mule activities, stop transferring money or merchandise, and stop communicating with the person giving you direction. Then, immediately report your concern to your bank. Your banker can assist you with the appropriate steps toward protecting your bank account and money. You should also report the suspected activity to law enforcement. Visit the U.S. Department of Justice webpage on money mules for more information.

Online Dating

Romance scammers, as they are often called, create fake profiles and try to develop relationships with their targeted victims through online dating apps or social networking websites. Once the relationship develops and they have earned your trust, the scammer makes up a story and asks for your money. Be aware that scammers are lurking in these areas, so you can keep yourself and your money safe. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has additional information on romance scams.

Impostors

Impostor scams are when a scammer pretends to be someone you know or trust to convince you to send them money. They may even claim they are with the FDIC or another government agency. These scams are communicated through emails, phone calls, letters, text messages, faxes, and social media. The messages might ask you to “confirm” or “update” confidential personal financial information, such as bank account numbers. In other cases, the communication might be an offer to help victims of current or previous frauds with an investigation or to recover losses. Some scams request that you file official looking forms, such as insurance claims, or pay taxes on prize winnings. They might claim that you have an unpaid debt and threaten you with a lawsuit or arrest if you don’t pay. Other recent examples include check endorsements, bankruptcy claimant verification forms, stock confirmations, and investment purchases.

The FDIC or other government agencies do not send unsolicited correspondence asking for money or sensitive personal information, and we will never threaten you, or demand that you pay by gift card, wiring money, or digital currency. FDIC Consumer News: Scammers Pretending to be the FDIC has more information on impostor scams.

Mortgage and Foreclosure Scams

Watch out for scammers who falsely claim to be lenders, loan servicers, financial counselors, or representatives of government agencies who can help with your mortgage. These criminals prey on vulnerable, desperate homeowners. For more on mortgage scams and how to protect yourself, visit the FTC Mortgage Relief Scams.

Foreclosure scams usually come from multiple advertisements stating that a company wants to save you from foreclosure. This scam allows fraudsters to take the equity out of your home. They may even try to evict you from your home and sell it. Learn more at Common Foreclosure Rescue and Loan Modification Scams under the FDIC Consumer Assistance Topics.

Ransomware

One cyber threat often discussed in the news is ransomware. Typically, this scam targets businesses, not individuals. Ransomware is a type of malware created to lock or encrypt files on an electronic device like a smart phone or computer. The sender of the ransomware then demands a ransom in exchange for unlocking or decrypting the information on your electronic device. The scammer typically threatens to publically disclose or sell the compromised information, if the ransom is not paid.

If you believe your business is a victim of a ransomware attack, contact law enforcement immediately. You can also contact a local field office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) or U.S. Secret Service to report a ransomware attack and ask for assistance.

Maintaining your cybersecurity will help prevent you from being a victim of identity theft and potential financial loss. Staying current on the latest types of scams can help you to identify the risks and learn how avoid them, so you can protect yourself and your finances.

 SPORT‘It’s a fixture I’ve been looking forward to’ – Aina speaks ahead Forest Vs Chelsea Published on May 10, 2024By Mike Oyebola


Nottingham Forest defender, Ola Aina is looking forward to facing his former club, Chelsea.

The 27-year-old left for Serie A club Torino on a permanent transfer in 2019.


Aina will be looking to help the Reds do the double over Chelsea after their 1-0 victory at Stamford Bridge in September.


“I don’t know if this is going to get me in trouble, but I am a Chelsea fan. It’s a fixture I’ve been looking forward to and I’m excited to be involved in it to see what happens,” the Nigerian told BBC.


“I don’t think there’s any point to prove. I don’t hold grudges or anything – whatever happened in the past happened. There’s no animosity there. It’s just the career of a footballer. I only have fond moments of being at Chelsea. It’s a chapter that closed and [I’ve] moved on, just how anyone else would.”

DEAR PARENTS /GUARDIANS

Mohbad means _"I am bad"_. His real name is Ileri Oluwa meaning _"The Promises of God"_ When he started his music career as a Christian singer, he tagged himself "Imole," meaning _"Light."_ 

 He changed his name to Mohbad after carelessly taking a cult leader as a role model. 

Once he got caught in the snare laid by the evil squad, he was murdered before he could retrace his steps.  

Who is your role model? 

His parents are now gnashing their teeth, shifting blames.

As a parent, how are you raising your own children?

Child, why on earth would you abandoned God?

Mohbad was buried at the age of 27.

Few weeks ago, a 19 year old boy was reportedly buried in his father's compound after being shot dead by rival cultists. 

Four weeks ago, a fresh graduate of a university in Lagos, aged 21 was supposed to follow her parents home after the convocation ceremony, but she insisted on staying back for some wild celebrations. 

By 5 am the following day, she was found dead, half buried without her private parts and her breasts.

A girl of 18 told her parents that she wanted to go and see her classmate, three hours later, her body was dumped in front her father's house in a pool of blood, by her Yahoo boyfriend

As parents,

1. When last did you see your children/child in school?(including university,polytechnic, etc?) 

2. Who are your child's friends?

3. Why does your child return home late (esp. at nights)?

4. The hair style, dress, necklace, tattoo, etc, that your child has, what does it mean? 

5. When last did you check your child/ children in their room at night? 

6. What is your child doing or who is he or she calling at midnight?

7. Why are your child's eyes sometimes red?

8. What caused changes in his/her voice, itinerary & behavior (from time to time)?  

9. When last did you check the bag he is carrying up & down? 

10. When last did you check:
His/her phone?
Under the bed?
His/her wardrobe?

11. What caused the wound on his/her body?

12. Why the very long fingernails?

13. What causes the strange body odour?

14. What type of iced do they prefer?

15. Why is he/she not eating mum's food, always saying 'am ok'?

16.If the family is going out together, why saying, 'go, I will meet you'?

17. Do you take time to check the movie he/she is viewing on TV?

18. Who visits when he/she is alone and Why? 

19. Why is he talking to you looking down (hiding his face)?

20. Why is your child so frightful (esp. if he/she wasn't like that)

PLEASE CHECK, is your child in danger because you are INSENSITIVE?

When you spoil your child you send him/ her to early grave.

When you don't discipline, you are preparing for a monumental shocker.

May the Almighty God not let us know the grave of our children.

May we not be victims of our child's early or sudden death.

May we not end our lives in regrets.

May God
in His Infinite mercy continue to deliver us from wicked and unreasonable forces. 
Amen.

What Does A Reporter Do? A Comprehensive Guide (With Duties)

A reporter is a journalist who uses investigation and research to gather the details of a story or event, and deliver the facts to the public through a medium or platform. The topics reporters could research include local and global events and often involve field investigation. If you want to become a reporter, knowing more about their duties may benefit you. In this article, we examine what a reporter does, the different types of reporters and how to become one.

What Does A Reporter Do?

To better understand the answer to the question, "What does a reporter do?", it's beneficial to review their job duties. Reporters gather news and information through multiple sources, verify the source for reliability and the information for accuracy, create a report and submit it to an editor or producer. They obtain information from their contacts, through personal interviews, press conferences and from other news agencies. They travel to relevant locations and verify information about events from official sources like police, public relations officials and government agents.Apart from covering the scheduled events that an editor assigns them, a reporter can also cover important events or incidents independently, as and when they happen. Reporters travel extensively within the areas under their purview, looking for coverage-worthy incidents or events. The editors and the news desk rely heavily on reporters to identify newsworthy events that they can telecast as breaking news or published in print media on the following day. The duties of a reporter may vary based on the medium they work in, typically print or digital.

What Are The Responsibilities Of A Reporter?
A media house can hold a reporter accountable for the information and reports they deliver. A media house may issue a corrigendum or retraction if they publish or broadcast false reports. Apart from sending accurate reports, reporters also have other responsibilities, including:
Taking responsibility for the information they share
When a reporter submits an article to their editor or anchor, the responsibility is on the reporter to verify background information. If they report a crime, they talk to police officials and witnesses before writing a story. A reporter also has to fit the report within the word count and finish preparation within a timeframe that an editor or producer may stipulate. If a reporter's story could be sensitive, they may talk to an in-house legal team to check if they can publish it.
Performing investigative reporting
Editors assign important issues that concern the public, like corruption, to one or more reporters depending on the magnitude of the issue. The primary responsibility of investigating all facets of the issue lies with the reporter. Reporters talk to many people who may help them in recording evidence to support their stories. Media companies may not publish stories if reporters cannot support them with adequate evidence. Some reporters may also work with people or organisations as undercover reporters to get crucial evidence for their stories.

Complying with legal and regulatory parameters
Organisations train and instruct reporters to follow legitimate procedures to obtain information for a story. If they are recording an interview, doing it without a person's consent could be illegal. It's essential for reporters to remember the privacy and the rights of individuals and institutions of which they write.

Addressing ethical responsibilities

Reporters constantly travel and investigate newsworthy items. They typically perform unbiased reporting, presenting the perspectives of all concerned parties. Obtaining information through ethical practices is very important to a reporter's work. Reporters usually avoid obtaining information through coercion, blackmail or bribery.

What Are The Duties Of Different Types Of Reporters?

Reporters are integral to journalistic practices. Reporters can work for print media, visual media and online media platforms. Each of these domains may have several reporters specialising in specific fields like politics, crime, finance, trade, commerce, international events, foreign affairs, sports, weather and entertainment. Some prominent types of reporters and their duties are:
Assignment reporters or media correspondents
Editors of news channels, newspapers or online portals assign reporters to specific locations to identify newsworthy stories or to cover scheduled events. They share details of scheduled events with the reporters in advance. These could be government events, court activities, campaigns, news conferences, community events, celebrity events or any significant event in the geographic area.
Assignment reporters note the dates in their calendars, cover the events and create reports to send to the editorial staff. They may also cover accidents, theft or crime-related news in their designated area. The decision of publishing or not publishing a reporter's story lies with the editorial team.
Sports reporters
A sports reporter may cover sports-related news in their assigned location or cover prominent games and sports events across the country. Media companies may have exclusive reporters for each sport who can describe the game in detail. Sports reporters may also interview sports personalities and share behind-the-scenes details of important games.
Beat reporters
Beat reporters are specialised reporters who cover news in specific fields. Media outlets may have beat reporters who exclusively cover news related to entertainment, shopping, education, food, music, art or culture. They keep the public updated about recent developments in their focus domain.

Weather reporters

Weather reporters provide information, analysis and updates related to weather forecasts. During extreme climatic conditions like heat waves, cyclones, thunderstorms or heavy rain, they keep the public informed through regular emergency weather updates. They inform the public about what to do and what to avoid, and issue frequent alerts so that the public can protect themselves from any danger.

Visual media reporters

A reporter working for television news channels produces reports that fall under the domain of visual journalism. They may also shoot live videos at sports events, crime scenes and newsworthy engagements. They work with editors in the studio and look for new approaches and topics for creating engaging news stories.

What Are The Skills That Reporters Require?

Reporting requires a variety of skills that assist with interviewing, interpreting and delivering news. Reporters train to record events factually, without any misrepresentation. Meticulous research, documentation and fact-checking require specific skills. Some important skills you can develop to become a reporter include:
  • Communication skills: While creating a story, reporters communicate with editors, other writers and subjects. Good communication skills aid in delivering stories effectively through any medium, in ways that the general public can engage with.
  • Investigative skills: Investigative skills aid a reporter in gathering the details related to a story or event. The ability to find trustworthy sources and to locate the origin of a story before other reporters, is important to being a valued professional in this field.
  • Interpersonal skills: Interpersonal skills are important for contacting sources and interviewing subjects. While interviewing subjects for a story, developing professional relationships with them helps a reporter stay engaged with a story and build a rapport with crucial contributors.
  • Written communicatio
  •  skills: Reporters may require excellent writing skills to keep notes, set schedules with interviewees and report story details to their editor. Clear and concise writing can assist reporters in accurately describing details.


Reporter Work Environment
Reporters typically spend the majority of their working days in the field. Some reporters may work part-time, only working when they receive a story, whereas others may split a full-time work schedule between reporting, pitching ideas and developing stories. A reporter's work environment has the following work characteristics:
  • Long periods spent standing or moving around
  • Frequent communication with witnesses, interviewees and other sources
  • Competition and time sensitivity
  • Frequent travel
  • Unconventional work schedules
The industry in which a reporter works can also dictate their work environment. A reporter who works solely in the field of business and finance can expect to spend a lot of time in offices, interviewing executive staff and financial analysts. A reporter specialising in weather may spend most of their time following weather-related events and communicating with subjects affected by adverse weather and climate conditions.

How To Become A Reporter

Follow these steps to become a reporter:

1. Pursue a degree in journalism

A bachelor's or a master's degree in journalism or mass communication is the most common requirement for a reporter's role.

Diplomas are ideal for professionals who want to become a reporter but do not have a related degree.
Weather reporters provide information, analysis and updates related to weather forecasts. During extreme climatic conditions like heat waves, cyclones, thunderstorms or heavy rain, they keep the public informed through regular emergency weather updates. They inform the public about what to do and what to avoid, and issue frequent alerts so that the public can protect themselves from any danger.
