Ever felt like a Trout???

I know that I do lately.  Every day I get another spam email message from some unknown person.  Seriously, I wish they would just leave me alone.  I don't want to inherit millions of dollars.  No, I didn't do a wire transfer to the IRS and TSTC IT  never has to ask for my password to login. 

Did you know that there are actually people known as "Spam Kings"?  Yeap, they make a living fishing (phishing) for our  information.  People all over the world provide them with money, passwords and personal information.  Living in this new digital world can be a test of your strength and critical thinking skills.   Most of us could have never dreamed about having to deal with these types of issues when we were young.  I sure didn't when I was sitting in my BASIC class programming the dot to bounce around. 

Well, never fear.... If you have a concern or just suspicious of an email....Don't open it, Call us!!  We have been there and will be able to help you navigate these new waters.   Don't be caught by the Spam Kings next fishing (phishing) net.
