Email hacking at epidemic proportions
This is not going to come as news to many email users, but there is now an absolute epidemic of email hacking sweeping the internet. There are several different scams crawling their way around cyberspace, but most of them center on having crooks gain access to your email account in order to steal a copy of all the names in your address book and this often includes all the names harvested from your old emails. Once the crooks know who your friends are, all of their addresses are blasted with spam emails attempting to compromise them too.

There have been two such memorials for Riley recently, one a bust in Mexico City, the other a small sculpture in Clifden, Co. Galway.
