Computerised accounts

June 19, 2013 – 6:46 am

Using a computer for accounting purposes can greatly reduce the time needed for finalization of accounts. There are also many computerised accounting packages available like Tally, Busy or Quickbooks. However using a computer or these packages can be a frustrating experience for some users for a number of reasons:
1.If the same computer is used for accessing the internet, it is very likely that unknown individuals will misuse the internet connection to access the accounting information without the knowledge or permission of the computer user. Financial information is highly confidential and can be misused by blackmailers and extortionists to destroy the life of the person concerned. It may also be leaked to competitors who may use it against the business owner.
2. Most models of laptops available today can be hacked by using bluetooth/wifi connections (a backdoor which laptop owners find difficult to trace) and the data can be accessed remotely without the laptop users knowledge or permission.
3.In some cases, the hacker will remotely uninstall the spreadsheet program installed like MsExcel , which is used for accounting purposes and maintaining records.
4. The keyboard for the laptop will be disabled remotely or corrupted, forcing the laptop user to get a new keyboard which costs Rs 1000 – Rs 1500 . The laptop user also faces booting problems intermittently while using the laptop.
5. Just before the tax payers files returns, all the accounting records on the computer are deleted remotely by anonymous hackers. Backups may also get corrupted, so the user is forced to generate all the records again, which is a very time consuming process.
Small business owners who are a takeover target for larger companies are usually a major victims of these hackers. These business owners are usually short of time, so they will chose a method which will take the least time under the circumstances and some may prefer to use the computer as a glorified typing machine, just for writing articles.

Looking For 24 Hour Online Cheap Payday Loans Direct Lenders?

May 18, 2013 – 9:51 pm

There are several payday loan companies that drop some quick cash in advance, in your bank account. This process takes place within 24 hours. Such loans are known as payday loans or cash advance. The whole process just takes 6 to 7 hours. The service of providing such loans which are basically the instant payday loans is established by several companies and they are making a good business. This is because whenever a customer needs urgent cash; he is ready to pay any amount of interest fee to the lender.

The simple process of payday loans comprises of approval of the application and the transfer of the funds in your checking account. Most of the banks will have the cash ready the next day, while some banks take longer to make the payday loan cash available in advance to the customer.

Those who need cash fast must seek for cheap payday loans online. There are companies that provide their online application without any charges and be able to match your application to more than 50 different online lenders quickly. One can acquire 24 hour loans by simply filling up his personal information in the application. The customer will receive the cash directly in to his account once the application is approved. Usually the maximum amount provided under such loans is up to $1000 depending on where you live and your financial situation.

These quick payday loans or online cash advances have no substitute of a financial planning for long term. Go through the important sections of the loan providing sites before you agree for the loan. If you feel that you will not be able to pay back the loan within the defined period of time then do not apply for the loan. Such loans have a high interest fee, and can often give you more financial mass for yourself if you don’t handle them properly. Remember, these type of loans are only meant for short term uses in case of emergency.  It happens that some customers are unable to pay the loan within the agreed upon time, therefore they pay a higher extension fee later on. Some customers even apply for other loans to pay back their previous loans.

Never ever trust a payday loan company that asks for a fee up front. A real payday loan lender realizes that the customer is asking for a loan because he needs money, not because he has it. Therefore such a lender will never ask you to pay any fee up front. Such a company will ask you for a proof of your employment income and valid bank checking account at least. If it does not then it is proved that the payday loan company is a scammer.

Mason Wecker writes many financial articles.  If you want to just submit one payday loan application and be able to connect to over 100 different lenders all at once, you can visit http://www.aceloanfinder.com to get started.

Protecting bandwidth and identity theft

May 17, 2013 – 2:27 pm

Imagine visiting a store or shop to buy groceries or clothes. You pay the bill, but some one else walks off with your purchases. The shop keeper instead of helping you, the customer, does everything he can to protect and support the thief, help him or her walk off with the stolen goods.

How does the customer feel?
Unhappy , yes certainly
Frustrated , yes
Will the customer return to the shop again? No
Is this common offline ? certainly not, the shop would be shut down in no time..

However, this scenario is commonplace online, especially for internet bandwidth and domain name purchases.
Experienced investors are put under surveillance for many years, making it extremely easy for hackers to steal internet bandwidth.
So the investor is forced to pay his or her hard earned money for bandwidth he or she has never used, while the hackers are protected despite stealing money from a person who has caused them no harm.

Ultimately, the ISP will also be the loser, for 2-3 months, the user will tolerate and pay for the high internet bills, then he or she will cancel the internet connection. When the number of users in a circle decreases, the ISP will have to shut shop, and the investment made will go waste. Recently, MTS stopped offering 3g services in certain areas. Airt* has also stopped offering 3g postpaid connections in certain circles.

One investor spends the money, someone else gets all the credit and privileges that a major investor gets, without spending a single paisa, just because she is the girlfriend or relative of a powerful person or a convincing liar .
Additionally, the investor is subjected to continuous harassment and persecution, with directed energy weapons used to cause severe headaches, memory loss, sleeplessness.

In such a case, will it be advisable to invest or spend money with the internet company?.No

These problems are particular acute in some parts of India, local newspapers are full of advertisements, while online classifieds contain very few ads. Being online ( except in a cybercafe) can be very expensive, as bandwidth theft is very common, for an ordinary internet user with no contacts. A newspaper will cost the user Rs 4 a day, reading/posting advertisements online can cost the user Rs 100 a day.

Some of the largest internet companies in the world may be running full page ads in newspapers, tv commercials, roadshows, but only when there is some fairness in behavior/treatment, will people continue to spend time and money online. In no sector is cheating and fraudulent behavior condoned and innocent people face so much harassment.

Promoting, protecting and worshipping liars

April 18, 2013 – 5:19 pm

One of the biggest problems working online in India is how people who spread blatantly false rumours have a lot of credibility,are protected and are widely trusted , while innocent hardworking investors are persecuted, harassed and subjected to slander campaigns and identity theft.

For example, a resident Indian pays all the domain registration and web hosting fees, yet all the internet companies and banks believe that the money is paid by an NRI whose actual contribution towards the expenses is zero. The resident Indian sacrifices a lot to pay the domain registration and web hosting fees , she has to travel by train instead of air, yet why are Indian internet companies and private banks so eager to eager to give credit to an NRI who is not spending any money? Why are they so unwilling to acknowledge their customer, who is doing all the work and spending all the money?

Laptops are hacked and controlled remotely, the hacker misuses it, yet they make it difficult for the laptop owner to get any kind of support. The hacker is widely supported and protected by his powerful backers in his attempt at defamation.

An investor spends tens of lakhs of rupees with an internet company, but blackmailers and extortionists who have not paid a single paisa , and make fictitious claims of payments have a lot of credibility and are trusted blindly.Till today, these blackmailers and extortionists are well protected by the largest internet companies in the country. The investor is not even asked his or her side of the story, these blackmailers and extortionists are considered to be saints and extremely truthful.

A housewife supported by her scammer husband makes false claims about the ownership of websites and is widely supported in her attempt at identity theft just because she is a convincing liar and an excellent housekeeper. This housewife is so crooked, that she has no qualms impersonating and betraying her own sister, yet she is worshipped and protected by many internet companies.

Assorted 21-22 year olds, housewives who are girlfriends/relatives of powerful persons and well connected are given unlimited powers of surveillance over a business owner. They abuse this power to make false claims about the business and are trusted because they are convincing liars. The business owner is expected to like them and teach them for free. When the business owner has spent over a decade and many lakhs of rupees, why is she expected to teach the 21 and 22 years for free? Why should the 21 and 22 year olds who are lazy, with big egos and have little knowledge be given everything on a platter, have it easy? If they are not willing to pay, why should they not spend at least 5 years of their life reading and learning new things, spend a few lakhs of their money with the different internet companies?

No names have been taken, but these are issues every Indian online investor should be aware of. In the short terms, crooks will flourish, but if the internet industry is to flourish, investors should be protected and frauds should be punished.

Being a loyal customer

March 9, 2013 – 2:35 pm

Some companies value their customers and appreciate their loyalty by giving additional discounts, build close relationships and helping their business grow. Other companies take their loyal customers for granted.
The loyal customers are treated very badly as they are:
1. Forced to make payments to girlfriends and relatives of powerful people
2. Subjected to id theft attempts , the identity thieves have spent very little money with the company, yet they are given all the assistance they need in their attempt at fraud.
3. Phone calls are not answered promptly
4. Customers spending $200 get better treatment than customers spending $100,000
5. Blackmailers and extortionists who make false allegations against the customer are considered to be saints telling the truth.
6. Every effort is made to destroy the reputation and business of the customer.
7. Employees (both senior and junior) have no qualms lying blatantly to the customer, they know that it is extremely insulting, but that is their company culture.
In such cases, when a loyal customer is treated very badly, it is better to move the business to another company which appreciates and values the money spent with them.

Problems with freelance writers

January 31, 2013 – 2:06 pm

Some of the problems faced while working with freelance writers are:
Poor quality content – not relevant to the topic given
Spun articles – some writers take the trouble of correcting at least some obvious grammatical errors, others will refuse to make the corrections
Poor general knowledge – many writers are not very well read, writing online is just a way to earn extra money, and this reflects in the quality of their work. For many topics, it is difficult to explain the subtle differences to a person whose general knowledge is limited to what is taught in school and college.
Not original – as mentioned before if a freelance writer is not well read, he or she is forced to research the topic online. This results in articles which are rehashed versions of the content on some other major websites
It is relatively easy to find writers for informative articles on a specific topic. However finding writers for opinion pieces is comparatively difficult, as their opinion will often differ from the editorial tone of the website.
Payment – some writers insist on payment on a per word basis, other want to be paid a fixed amount for articles of a particular length. Writers who want to be paid on a per word basis, may increase the length of the article unnecessarily so as to increase the payout. On the other hand, writers who insist on being paid a fixed amount may not be motivated to write a comprehensive article, since they are aware that they will not receive any extra payment whatever the length of the article.
Rates – some writers are interested in volumes, and are willing to lower their rates. Others will insist on being paid a fixed amount per article.
Revision – many writers refuse to revise the articles, others will revise on being requested, but the revised article will still not meet the quality standards.

Surveillance

January 4, 2013 – 11:57 am

Being under surveillance for years is worse than physical assault in many ways. Physical assault is a one time event , surveillance destroys a person mentally, financially as well as physically, especially when he or she does not know the reason why he or she is put under surveillance. When an innocent person is under surveillance, footage of all activities during the day and night are relayed to unknown individuals who ogle at it and misuse it for their own gain and benefit. All phone conversations are tapped, emails are intercepted.
Some of the reasons why surveillance is harmful, especially when the surveillance information is not kept confidential , but leaked to unscrupulous individuals are as follows
1. Loss of privacy – for example when the person goes to the bank to withdraw money, the surveillance footage is misused to send someone else to the teller to withdraw the money. when FDs are submitted for renewal, an unknown person tries to claim them.
2. Identity theft
3. Blackmail and extortion attempts as every person he or she interacts with is encouraged/threatened to make false allegations. It is difficult to make new friends.
4. Leakage of confidential business information – emails from prospective customers are stolen and diverted to competitors.
5. Difficulty hiring/retaining employees as competitors lure them using the surveillance
6. Theft of equipment and documents , hacking of computers, laptops and electronic equipment.
7. Use of directed energy weapons(DEW) on the individual . The DEW cause very severe headaches, which make it difficult to carry out any activity, reduce productivity, cause sleeplessness and result in memory loss.

The life of the person under surveillance is effectively destroyed, and there is often no way he or she can get any kind of compensation. The companies and individuals who authorise this may be extremely powerful and “respectable” (but remain anonymous), but the destruction and damage caused by them is comparable to that by natural disasters like fires or flood , only an innocent person has to pay the price of someone’s recklessness/carelessness/greed.

Unwillingness to pay for training/technology

December 15, 2012 – 2:45 pm

One of the worst aspects of working online is that most people are extremely unwilling to acknowledge or even refuse to pay for training and technology. The small business owner may have spent many years of his or her life and a huge amount of money in developing the technology or expertise which is not found in any book or taught in any college in the world. However, the business owner is not even treated with respect and expected to teach these strangers for free (even paying them and being falsely accused of cheating).

The same people will happily spend tens of thousands of rupees while sending their children to kindergarten for learning ABC and lakhs for their childrens secondary school education which can be taught at home free. Why are they so selfish that they expect technology which could earn them lakhs of rupees every month to be transferred to them free?
