We have had a couple of insurance claims lately and clients have had expensive laptops (excess of $3,000) a couple of their insurance companies have come back and said the maximum claimable amount is $2,000. If you have an expensive desktop or laptop, it may be worth while checking to ensure it's covered sufficiently with your insurer.

05.01.2022 So this arrived into my work email today :) total scammy scam, read for your enjoyment! ========================= Hello! I am a professional coder and I hacked your device's OS when you visited adult website. I've been watching your activity for a couple of months.... If you don't understand what I am talking about I can explain... My trojan malware lets me get access to my victim's system. It is multiplatform software with hVNC that can be installed on phones, PC and even TV OS... It doesn't have any AV's detects because it is encrypted and can't be detected becaause I update it's signatures every 4 hour. I can turn on your camera, save your logs and do everything that I want and you won't notice anything. Now I have all your contacts, sm data and all logs from chats for the latest 2 months but it is not very useful without something that can spoil your reputation... I recorded your masturbation and the video that you watched. It was disgusting. I can destroy your life by sending this stuff to everybody you know. If you want me to delete this stuff and avoid any problems you have to send $1000 to my bitcoin address: If you don't know how to buy bitcoins use Google, there are a lot of manuals about using, spending and buying this cryptocurrency. You have 50 hours from now to complete the payment. I have a notification that you are reading this message... TIME HAS GONE. Don't try to respond because this email address is generated. Don't try to complain because this and my bitcoin address can't be tracked down. If I notice that you shared this message everybody will receive your data. Bye! ============== So, if you get it, you can SHIFT Delete it. :P and remember, DON'T CLICK ON LINKS within these sort of emails.

03.01.2022 South Australia Police have identified an increase in Remote Access Scams, where unsuspecting victims are receiving calls out of the blue and are being requeste...d to download software onto their phone or computers to resolve account hacking issues. Whilst these types of scams are not new, scammers are adapting to the December online shopping frenzy; moving away from misrepresenting telco companies and towards major online shopping platforms such as EBay and Amazon. Victims are receiving unsolicited phone calls, with the caller informing them that their online shopping account has been hacked or an illegal purchase has been made. The caller then informs the victim that in order to rectify the issue, they will need to download an app onto their phone or software onto their computer. Unfortunately, the software downloaded is a type of remote access tool, which provides the scammer will full access and control of the phone. This means they will now have access to personal information, passwords and online accounts. Once the scammers have control of the device, large sums of money are then moved from the victim’s online banking accounts without their permission or knowledge. South Australia Police recommend that people do not download software or apps that they are not familiar with, and particularly never at the direction of someone over the phone. If you receive a call and cannot be certain who you are speaking to, hang up the phone and make contact with the organisation on a known, reputable number or alternate contact method such as an email address from their website.
