DO NOT Download files from emails from FedEx, DHL etc regading deliveries!!!!!
There are emails going out that say there was an attempted delivery and you have to download and open a file to reschedule. If you do, the file will encrypt files on your PC, and you will get a message that you have to pay about $400 to recover your files. We received three of these this morning.

I have been getting this crap for over a year, a few times a week. They do look real. General rule don't open anything, even from someone you know, if there is not a personal message to you that makes sense. If you send me a photo and just say "wow look at this car." I will not open it.

This may be a little different because it is not a virus etc. It just encrypts your files and asks for $400 to release them. Your anti-virus software may not recognize it.

It is likely very real. Two years ago I opened one (not referencing a delivery). My computer locked up. It is called "Ransom Software" or Ransom Email". Our IT people found the encryption but could not remove. Paying the $400-500 dollars sometimes releases your files but no guarantee it won't come back. I swear by Carbonite. The IT staff stripped out the computer & then installed the Carbonite Backup. Took about 2 hrs., as I remember. No problems since. As long as you have a good back-up, you can clean out your computer.

A word of advice to anybody with a computer or a few. Treat the computer as a disposable device. Have a storage area network (SAN) device with RAID 1 or 5 redundancy. I have a 6 terabyte cloud an a 2 terabyte on a private network, but most non IT folks probably could suffice with much less. Any software you install on any computer on your network should have full install backups on the SAN along with a text file of the license keys. Any documents, working files, backups, data, etc goes to the SAN, not the computer itself. Things that are static (meaning they are archives that will never change) set to read-only and create a redundant backup on a cheap portable hard drive encryped and kept in a car or safety deposit box off site. That includes financial stuff, pictures, music, and wrk stuff. If a computer gets hijacked or fails, you lose nothing. If my house were to get blown away by a hurricane, I would be able to recover every client, intelectual property, picture, mp3, and data I have ever saved witin hours of buying a new laptop. Paranoia is good and the geeks shall inherit the earth! On Jun 21, 2016 2:15 PM, "Dave" <dave@damardirect.com> wrote:

Rob: That's awesome advice, and it's exactly what I preach in my Digital Legacy seminar. Everyone take note, because the old adage of "it's not IF and hard drive will fail, but WHEN" is more true than I'd like to admit. Earlier this year I experienced a massive data loss, one that nearly killed my business. It wasn't caused by hackers or a virus, but a classic Maui brownout. While all my images (I'm a fine-art nature and auto photographer by trade) were on a server, and files were "mirrored" to two Drobo, network attached storage devices, a 30-plus-second brownout cost me 16 hard drives, our server, and both NAS devices (everything was on UPS battery backups, which were fried too). What saved our bacon was a 4TB portable hard drive, that was buried in a safe in California. Unfortunately, all my files weren't on that drive (it only covered the mission critical data). When the smoke cleared (literally) and we were back up and running, our loss tallied approximately 181,000 of 597,737 images -- that's about 30% of my digital catalog. Not only were many master files lost, but all our digitized family photos were toast, as well as the photographic restorations of my grandfather's Pantera (#6665) and my car. With the help of a friend who's business is data security, we now have nine-levels of data redundancy that includes two servers, three NAS storage devices, four off-site external devices (one in a local safe deposit box, two in California and one in Florida) that are swapped with updated units monthly, and a continual "cloud" backup to a service called Backblaze. Most IT professionals shake their heads, and tell me my data protection scheme is big time overkill, but I look at it as having multiple safety nets. Plus, I'll never lose family photographic memories again -- many of which can never be recreated again. -----Original Message----- From: DeTomaso [mailto:detomaso-bounces@server.detomasolist.com] On Behalf Of Rob Dumoulin Sent: Tuesday, June 21, 2016 3:55 PM To: Pantera - Dave Cc: detomaso@server.detomasolist.com; Ken Green Subject: Re: [DeTomaso] DO NOT Download files from emails from FedEx, DHL etc regading deliveries!!!!!

I use a Kinston Hyper X 64 GB thumb drive and do an incremental backup once or twice a day, takes a couple minutes at the most. I don't have a lot of photos, so 64 GB is more than I need. Also periodically clone the HD. With that combination, I can recover in a few minutes. Also have a back up of the same PC model, and can swap the SSD into it if my PC dies.

6 TB Mirrored = 3 TB usable. Still, it's quite a hunk of storage I can securely get to from anywhere not blocked by a corporate firewall (like my current client). Likewise, my 2 TB local SAN/print server is also mirrored and not accessible/vulnerable to hackers or viruses. I forgot to mention the UPS connected to each and the router so they are not vulnerable to power issues. Another thing to consider is to use cheap droid or apple tablets to do internet surfing.

A word of advice to anybody with a computer or a few. Treat the computer as a disposable device. Have a storage area network (SAN) device with RAID 1 or 5 redundancy. I have a 6 terabyte cloud an a 2 terabyte on a private network, but most non IT folks probably could suffice with much less. Any software you install on any computer on your network should have full install backups on the SAN along with a text file of the license keys. Any documents, working files, backups, data, etc goes to the SAN, not the computer itself. Things that are static (meaning they are archives that will never change) set to read-only and create a redundant backup on a cheap portable hard drive encryped and kept in a car or safety deposit box off site. That includes financial stuff, pictures, music, and wrk stuff. If a computer gets hijacked or fails, you lose nothing.
If my house were to get blown away by a hurricane, I would be able to recover every client, intelectual property, picture, mp3, and data I have ever saved witin hours of buying a new laptop.
Paranoia is good and the geeks shall inherit the earth!

General rule don't open anything, even from someone you know, if there is not a personal message to you that makes sense.
If you send me a photo and just say "wow look at this car." I will not open it.

There are emails going out that say there was an attempted delivery and you have to download and open a file to reschedule. If you do, the file will encrypt files on your PC, and you will get a message that you have to pay about $400 to recover your files. We received three of these this morning. Ken

I use an apple time capsule for backups. It is very easy to setup, plus it does wifi and is a mini hub. It's more expensive than it should be, but it's worth it. I've used it to restore files I accidentally deleted. No malware problems since going Mac, so while it is supposed to do a full system restore, I don't know how well it actually works.

There are emails going out that say there was an attempted delivery and you have to download and open a file to reschedule. If you do, the file will encrypt files on your PC, and you will get a message that you have to pay about $400 to recover your files. We received three of these this morning. Ken
