Clampdown on E-mail Fraud In our IT dominated 21st Century world most of us have managed to develop a healthy love-hate sort of relationship with our e-mail systems. We love to be able to communicate with people but we hate to be pestered by junk mail, or requests for work that we feel obliged to respond to! "It is never safe to assume a message really is from the person it appears to be from" At the university we are obliged to take steps to prevent anonymous and fraudulent e-mail to comply with the terms of our internet connection and we have recently tightened the security on our mail service.

Extractions: Statement of Policy concerning Venue in Mail Fraud Prosecutions Prosecutions of fraud ordinarily should not be undertaken if the scheme employed consists of some isolated transactions between individuals, involving minor loss to the victims, in which case the parties should be left to settle their differences by civil or criminal litigation in the state courts. Serious consideration, however, should be given to the prosecution of any scheme which in its nature is directed to defrauding a class of persons, or the general public, with a substantial pattern of conduct. See also USAM 9-85.210 (requires prior consultation with the Public Integrity Section to use the mail or wire fraud statutes in the prosecution of election fraud cases). Further guidance and legal analysis of issues surrounding the investigation and prosecution of frauds involving use of the mail or wire, in violation of Title 18, United States Code, Sections 1341 and 1343 can be found in the Criminal Resource Manual: Investigative Authority Criminal Resource Manual at 939 18 U.S.C.

http://kb.indiana.edu/data/afvn.html

Extractions: How to Search Advanced Search There are many types of fraud, and e-mail is an inexpensive and thus popular method for distributing fraudulent messages to potential victims. According to the US Secret Service, millions of dollars are lost annually to fraud. Never respond to any message that asks you to send cash or personal information. You won't receive any riches, and in fact, you could get into legal trouble if you get tangled in one of these webs. Some of the most common fraudulent messages are non-monetary hoaxes or non-monetary chain mail . Treat these as you would spam; for more information, see the Knowledge Base document What should I do when I get spam e-mail? However, if you receive an e-mail message that appears to involve money, or asks for personal information, do not respond . See the information below to determine what you should do with this type of e-mail. If you receive this type of message, you may report it to the US Secret Service for their ongoing investigation of this type of fraud. More information about this kind of fraud is available at the Secret Service Web site at:

mail fraud The GOP's attempt to mail Social Security guarantees turns postalworkers into campaign operatives. - - - By Ben Fritz.
http://www.salon.com/politics/col/spinsanity/2002/02/25/social_security/

Extractions: By Ben Fritz In a new twist on the Social Security debate, some House Republicans are pushing legislation that would issue a certificate to Social Security recipients falsely claiming to guarantee that their benefits cannot be cut. This legislation takes dissembling beyond what we have come to expect from politicians, making the federal government itself just another instrument for false rhetoric. Two versions of the bill The Social Security Benefits Guarantee Act of 2001 and The Social Security Guarantee Act of 2001 are before the House, sponsored by Reps. James DeMint, R-S.D., and Walter Jones, R-N.C., respectively. Both propose the same thing: that senior citizens shall, as soon as they become eligible for Social Security, receive certificates from the secretary of the treasury guaranteeing that they will receive the Social Security benefits promised under the law and that those benefits will be indexed for inflation.

Extractions: THIS SITE BETTER IN FLASH MAIL FRAUD WHEN THE F.B.I. COMES CALLING... You may be charged with: Mail Fraud is the oldest form of fraud statutorily regulated and prosecuted by the federal government. Like other forms of white collar fraud, the objective of mail fraud is to accomplish a desired result by deception, trickery, concealment, and/or dishonesty, albeit through the use of the United States Mail Service or other private/commercial interstate carriers. Statutorily regulated since 1872, the United States Supreme Court has repeatedly upheld the authority of Congress to pass the statute. Interpretation of today's revised mail fraud statutes finds generally that four elements must be met for an individual or organization to be convicted of mail fraud. An Assistant United States Attorney (AUSA) must present evidence that when submitted to a jury or judge would prove beyond a reasonable doubt:
Las Vegas SUN: Harmon Guilty Of Mail Fraud

http://www.lasvegassun.com/sunbin/stories/sun/2003/feb/13/514659427.html

Extractions: LAS VEGAS SUN Former state Assemblyman Harley L. Harmon was found guilty this morning in federal court of 34 counts of mail fraud in connection with a multimillion-dollar mortgage scandal. Harmon, 55, showed little emotion as the jury's verdict was read. Halfway through the verdict, he put his head down and stared at the desk in front of him. He faces up to five years in prison on each count a potential sentence of 170 years. He could also be fined when he is sentenced before U.S. District Judge Philip Pro. Sentencing is set for 9:30 a.m. May 2. The judge and attorneys will discuss sentencing issues on Feb. 21. Harmon walked out of the courtroom this morning showing no emotion. "I have no comment," Harmon said, responding to reporters' questions. Pressed further, he said, "You have to be kidding." His attorney, Frank Cremen, said he would "take all appropriate measures." Asked if he would appeal, he said, "absolutely." Harmon was tried on 34 counts of mail fraud after a joint FBI and Metro Police investigation into the operations of the now defunct Harley L. Harmon mortgage company. He had been indicted in April 2001 on 71 counts, but most were dropped because some witnesses were unavailable.

Extractions: LAS VEGAS SUN Larry Wayne Harris, who was arrested in Henderson this week after supposedly carrying enough deadly anthrax germ to "wipe out" Las Vegas, has a troubled history with fatal biological material. Harris also is aligned with a racist, anti-semitic movement that refers to Jews as the "children of Satan" and blacks as "subhuman mud people." A registered microbiologist who holds art degrees from Ashland University and Ohio State University, Harris, 46, who was born in Richlands, Va., was thrust into national notoriety in 1995. In May of that year, he was arrested at his Lancaster, Ohio, home with three vials of freeze-dried yersinia pestis, an organism that causes bubonic plague. The bubonic plague killed one-fourth of Europe in the 1300s but now can be treated with antibodies. Harris' samples, which were inert, were in the glove compartment of his Subaru. None of the vials had been opened. Harris reportedly paid $240 for the samples and received them via Federal Express from American Type Culture Collection, a lab in Rockville, Md.

http://www.vanfirm.com/columns/mail-fraud.htm

Extractions: Mail fraud continues to be a problem in America, according to data provided by the U.S. Postal Service. The number of arrests for mail fraud, as with other crimes, understates the extent of the problem. For an assortment of reasons, many of those who engage in these illegal practices never are charged with crimes. Although the sales pitch may be made over the telephone, if you are asked to mail in a check for the product or service, this can be a form of mail fraud. Common mail-fraud practices include ads selling land, work-at-home schemes promising hefty incomes for performing mundane tasks, fraudulent charitable fund-raising, investment scams, non-existent job opportunities, chain letters and others.
