Hello and thank you for the nice compliment.

I’m so excited and wish to share. My good friend,
Lois T.  Martin, has a  great show on blogtalkradio..com.  Check her out on www.blogtalkradio.com/loistmartin.
She has invited me to be on her show this January, 2, 2019 to talk about protecting yourself from identity theft.

Lois is a  numerologist and healer. She has many wonderful guests on her show, from astrologers to life coaches. You can go to the blog talk site and look at the archives on her show.

Lois is a  no nonsense, down to earth  person, who brings people together from all over the world. But she won’t hold your hand, instead  reminding people that they must do the work themselves. Lois and her co host with the mostest, JoAnna Garfi -McNally,  let people know that they are there to support you, but you have to do the work. No hand holding here.

When I  listen to questions, I  realize that I  am not the only one going through a  particular situation. Sometimes, you think  you’re the only person  having an issue. It’s nice to know I’m not the only one who’s affected by a  situation.

I  am blessed to call these wonderful people my friends. They definitely don’t let me get away with anything, and let me know when I  don’t hold  up my end of the bargain.

Along with regular  listeners, we have formed a  strong group of like minded people who only want to be there for each other, from giving a  cheer when things are great, and support when things aren’t going the way we wish them to.

What a  wonderful group, and a  great  honor  to be able to bring identity theft to the forefront. Thank you Lois and JoAnna, for the wonderful work you do. I  am honored to be a  part of the solution. I  look forward to giving some positive information on the upcoming show, so that people can be empowered. I  hope to see readers of this blog there.

How it works:

1. Call  1 (646) 716-6237 about  15  min before the show, which airs  at 
   7:00 pm  on Jan 2,  2019. 
2. As soon as you hear “blog talk radio, your show is scheduled to start in…press  the number  “1” –  this puts you in the queue so you can ask a  question.
3. You can listen  while you’re waiting. You’re on mute until they reach your  place on line.

Lois and JoAnna  air every  Mon/Wed  at  7:00 pm. I  hope  to  hear you there.

It’s  a  great  show, join us!

Have  a  wonderful  day,

Deborah   

This is something you didn’t think of – the effect of identity theft on seniors, and their ability to afford rent. I had another sleepless night, because it dawned on me that I’m smack dab in the middle of the baby boomer generation. ”My” generation has already started to affect the housing market – and no one prepared for it.  As a matter of fact, I bet some people became rich following the baby boomers from birth. You start investing in diapers, and end up investing in rental housing. Follow the trends, that’s what they say. It’s true.

Hello  Everyone,

I  received  an interesting phone call this morning.  A  representative  from the Council On Aging  responded  to my email regarding  the  Guardianship  Accountability  Act.

She was quiet  while listening to my story . I  explained that, as a  victim, I  couldn’t do anything as the DA refused to treat my case as criminal.  I  also told her that I  have a  civil judgement that does no good, as I  can’t get anyone to serve the Judgement on the thief.

She said she has heard my story from a  long list of victims. She wished there was something she could do. I  thanked her for the Council’s efforts in adding another Federal law, but if the local DA  wouldn’t prosecute, they are wasting their time.

She related  this wasn’t the first time she heard complaints about local District Attorneys.  Was there a  way they could work on legislation requiring a  DA to comply with Federal regulations on a  State level?

Otherwise, what’s the point?

I  felt bad for her. She sounded tired, frustrated, at a  loss.  Feel free to email the Council.  Someone needs to take responsibility for the thousands of us floundering in a  broken system.

Be Safe,
