Women aged between 25 and 35 most likely to fall victim to scams

according to www.knowthennet.co.uk As we expose scams we have published what they say below

"Women aged 25-34 are most likely to fall victim of online scams, according to knowthenet research released today. The online research was commissioned to better understand the profile of online scam victims and build up a picture of what a typical ‘mark’ will look like.

In a drive to help consumers protect themselves online our Internet security experts conducted an experiment involving more than 2,000 online consumers which measured their ability to spot and respond appropriately to seven online scam scenarios. The tests ranged from identifying fake social network pages to testing how consumers respond to competition scams or the sale of counterfeit goods online.

In six out of the seven tests, the most likely demographic to fail was women. And of those women that failed, they were most likely to come from the 25-34 age group. However, the demographic of the most likely ‘victim’ did depend on the scam type. For example, out of those that fell for confidence trick scams – which often try to persuade people to send money to help someone in distress - the majority were men (53% of those that failed).

Phil Kingsland, Site Director at knowthenet, comments, “Our research shows that even confident web users can be vulnerable. The good news is that there are lots of simple, easy steps you can take to make it harder for the criminals. You just need to stay aware and this site helps you to do that.”

We with respect might disagree having investigated the online dating scams. This would seem to indicate that the male signing up with an online dating site or replying to the famous "Boris" letter probably represent the majority of the victims.

Your Weekly LoveCast™ "Moon in Leo fires up passion on Friday and Saturday" November 22/29 2010

The Sun entering Sagittarius on Monday and teaming up with Mercury and Mars in Sagittarius can bring out your inner wanderlust or desire for a romantic getaway this week. Mercury colliding with Jupiter and Uranus energizes intellectual freedom and rebelliousness. During the weekend, Moon in Leo fires up passion on Friday and Saturday, while Moon in Virgo favors analyzing your emotional ties on Sunday. Best days for socializing: Tuesday, Friday, and Saturday.

Aries: Your greatest gift this week is the ability to gain a broader perspective of what kind of relationship would be best for you. Meditation/introspection will help you see the direction you need to take to find fulfillment in love. This weekend, romance can be found during a party on Saturday or through a work project on Sunday.

Taurus: The focus this week is on eliminating emotional junk (habits, bad attitudes, negative thinking) that blocks your emotional/sexual energy. Releasing the negativity will intensify the intimacy between you and your sweetie, or help you attract a compatible sexual relationship. A spontaneous tryst (at your home?) revs up romance during the weekend!

Gemini: The desire to share your life with someone special is particularly strong this week. It’s time to share your dreams and goals with your sweetie, or get clear about what you really want in a new partner. Working through relationship issues is also favored. Verbalizing your desires through flirting or a heartfelt message inspires love this weekend!

Cancer: An emotional issue may be in your face on Wednesday, but a sudden insight can untangle the problem on Thursday – if you’re open to seeing the problem from a fresh perspective. A coworker may be able to help. Romance may come through a work activity as well. Daring to state your feelings brings a sexy interlude this weekend!

Leo: As romance percolates this week, you may find yourself having to weed out some less-than-worthy admirers. Your sense of drama and sexual creativity are particularly strong on Saturday, but your boldness may be daunting to sensitive souls, so be mindful of the feelings of others. A genuine expression from the heart inspires love on Sunday.

Virgo: Sexy wordplay heats up passion at the start of the week, but the primary focus is on creating a positive flow of energy in your home by clearing away the junk. The improved Feng Shui will help you manifest a compatible relationship. This weekend, a psychic nudge can accelerate romance on Saturday. Your sensuality is irresistible on Sunday!

Libra: Because your words have tremendous influence this week, flirting, heartfelt discussions, and insightful ideas can inspire/bring romance. Even an argument may prompt a passionate romp. Romance can also be found during a class or while traveling. This weekend, friends bring joy (and romance?) on Saturday, while a serene environment inspires love on Sunday.

Scorpio: Sharing both your down-to-earth (genuine) side and spiritual (idealistic) side brings romance this week. Stating what’s important to you will also help you find someone compatible, or improve/deepen your current relationship. During the weekend, love can be found during a public event on Saturday or though a friend on Sunday.

Sagittarius: Multiple influences in your sign make you a magnet for romantic opportunities this week. They can also intensify your restlessness, making it difficult to focus on one particular person. Perhaps seeking out a new and exotic activity will satisfy your need for adventure – and help you attract someone new and exotic as well!

Capricorn: With your inner life so energized, it may be difficult to take action on your desires unless you get in touch with your deepest feelings. Taking some time for yourself will help clarify what you need to do (and with whom). This weekend, intimacy sizzles on Saturday, while a spiritual or cultural activity inspires romance on Sunday.

Aquarius: Romance is sexy, spontaneous, and unpredictable (perfect for you, in other words) at the start of the week. A friend, group gathering, or community event will be instrumental in bringing a personal or professional opportunity. This weekend, a shared activity inspires love on Saturday. Helping someone in need draws admiration on Sunday.

Pisces: With such intense energy centered on your career and reputation this week, it’s no wonder that sharing your expertise is certain to draw admirers who can help you move forward, personally and professionally. If you’re paired, helping others by sharing your relationship insights will deepen your connection. A courageous expression of love inspires romance this weekend!

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part I hits theaters on November 19th, 2010.

Cast: Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint, Emma Watson, Tom Felton, Ralph Fiennes, Alan Rickman, Bill Nighy, Jamie Campbell Bower, Bonnie Wright, Helena Bonham Carter, Timothy Spall, Michael Gambon, Rhys Ifans, Maggie Smith, John Hurt, Jason Isaacs, Ciaran Hind

Part 1 begins as Harry, Ron and Hermione set out on their perilous mission to track down and destroy the secret to Voldemort's immortality and destruction-the Horcruxes. On their own, without the guidance of their professors or the protection of Professor Dumbledore, the three friends must now rely on one another more than ever. But there are Dark Forces in their midst that threaten to tear them apart.

Meanwhile, the wizarding world has become a dangerous place for all enemies of the Dark Lord. The long-feared war has begun and Voldemort's Death Eaters seize control of the Ministry of Magic and even Hogwarts, terrorizing and arresting anyone who might oppose them. But the one prize they still seek is the one most valuable to Voldemort: Harry Potter. The Chosen One has become the hunted one as the Death Eaters search for Harry with orders to bring him to Voldemort... alive.

Harry's only hope is to find the Horcruxes before Voldemort finds him. But as he searches for clues, he uncovers an old and almost forgotten tale-the legend of the Deathly Hallows. And if the legend turns out to be true, it could give Voldemort the ultimate power he seeks.

Little does Harry know that his future has already been decided by his past when, on that fateful day, he became "the Boy Who Lived." No longer just a boy, Harry Potter is drawing ever closer to the task for which he has been preparing since the day he first stepped into Hogwarts: the ultimate battle with Voldemort.

Russell Grant’s Daily Horoscopes for Monday 22 November 2010

Weekly HoroscopesHoroscopes

Aries (Mar21/Apr20) After spending an intense period of introspection, you’re ready to spread your wings and fly. If you’ve been thinking of venturing into a new industry or embarking on a romance, do it. Leaving your old life behind will be incredibly liberating. You’re sick and tired of doing the same thing day after day. If you’re happy with your job and relationship status, think about taking an advanced course in a subject that captures your imagination

.

Taurus (Apr21/May21) An intense encounter makes you realise how much you’ve been on autopilot. Going through the motions of life doesn’t work for a passionate person like you. You need to fill your life with art, music, food, poetry, and love. When you don’t get enough of these things, you get tetchy. Change your priorities, even if it means handing off responsibilities to others. Just because you work hard doesn’t mean you should be stuck with more than your fair share.

.

Gemini (May22/Jun21) Teaming up with a partner boosts your effectiveness. You’re good at handling little details, while your other half prefers to focus on the big picture. If you’re single, you will meet someone special at a dog park, sporting event, or bookshop. Keep your eyes open for an athletic type with a mischievous smile. Already in a relationship? Give your amour a token of your affection. A fun gadget or elegant jewellery will serve as a physical reminder of your love.

.

Cancer (Jun22/Jul23) Work has been piling up, and you have no choice but to roll up your sleeves and get busy. Neglecting your duties will result in a write up or dismissal. If you’re unemployed, take this opportunity to send out a slew of CVs. Search job boards for the kind of work that speaks to your heart. Let friends, relatives, and colleagues know you need a job. By covering all of your bases, you’ll strike gold in record time.

.

Leo (Jul24/Aug23) You’ve always made fun a top priority, and that’s especially true today. You’re sick and tired of postponing your favourite activities for work. Take the day off or go home early. Head for the park, zoo, or theatre. You don’t have to justify taking a break. When you’re on call, you give every ounce of yourself to the task at hand. That’s why you burn out more quickly than most. Letting your hair down and putting your feet up will recharge your batteries.

.

Virgo (Aug24/Sep23) Spending time on domestic pursuits gives you a divine feeling of safety and security. Roll up your sleeves and make some comfort food. Tidy up the garden. Clean out a cluttered area and spruce it up with beautiful paint, mellow lamplight, and comfortable furnishings. You’ve got a great eye for detail. Make notes on the things that displease you and then create a plan for improving these elements. Pretty soon, your home will be a tranquil haven.

.

Libra (Sep24/Oct23) Ramping up your computer or entertainment system will save valuable time and money. It will also make your life a lot easier. Yes, you may have to spend a little more on equipment from the outset, but the initial outlay will soon pay for itself. If you’re thinking of taking a trip, this would be a great time to book one. You’ll find good rates on plane and hotel fares. Not only that, a brief change of scenery will be refreshing.

.

Scorpio (Oct24/Nov22) It’s time to put your finances in order; although you’re very resourceful, it’s important to get paid what you are worth. Don’t hesitate to ask for a raise or find a better paying job. You’re worth your weight in gold, and need to price your wares accordingly. If your job no longer has any meaning for you, it’s time to find another line of work. Opportunities in travel, publishing, and education are looking good. You’re good at ferreting out the best deals.

.

Sagittarius (Nov23/Dec21) The phone is ringing off the hook and it seems like everybody wants to get hold of you. While it’s nice to be popular, it’s a little overwhelming, too. Pick and choose your meetings with care. Avoid toxic people like the plague. They’ll try to push their responsibilities onto you and take credit for your work. On the other hand, supportive friends will only fuel your fire, giving you the energy you need to take on an impressive project.

.

Capricorn (Dec22/Jan20) Life has been incredibly busy lately, and you’re exhausted. Luckily, the Universe is giving you a chance to slow down and smell the roses. Stop loading up your schedule with meetings and errands. Give yourself a few hours to rest, relax, and rejuvenate. If that means taking a day off, so be it. Pull down the shades, turn off your mobile, and draw yourself a hot bath. Luxuriate in the quiet of your home and take a nap if you need to.

.

Aquarius (Jan21/Feb19) Being a team player is the name of the game. Yes, you’re probably the most capable member of the group, but don’t lord your superior knowledge over everyone else. By blending in with the group, you’ll make some valuable allies. Working towards a cherished dream is possible, but you will run into some obstacles along the way. Turn to your newfound friends for assistance with paperwork, complicated technology, and legal matters.

.

Pisces (Feb20/Mar20) Normally, you prefer to keep a low profile, but that’s not possible today. You may be called in for a meeting with your boss or asked to make a public presentation. Fortunately, you radiate confidence and intelligence. Making a good impression will be easy. If a high level position opens up at work, apply. You might not be confident of your abilities, but your superiors are impressed by what they see. Are you fed up with the way a public official is doing their job?
