      Posted by SoxFirst

      In his latest filing, disgraced media mogul Conrad Black says he is worried about his old company Hollinger is spending money on legal fees, and he seeks $20.6 million which he reckons the company owes him. He is also looking to hire jury consultants to help him come across as a regular sort of guy.

      Posted by SoxFirst

      Just months before his fraud, racketeering and tax evasion trial begins, disgraced former media mogul Black is giving special Christmas presents to what's left of his friends.

    • How to beat identity fraud

      Posted by SoxFirst

      Identity fraud is on the rise but new data shows a lot of it is avoidable. Data shows that most cases involve stuff that’s within the consumer's control, be it lost or stolen wallets, credit cards and cheque books, trusted associates including family, friends, neighbours and employees, stolen mail or garbage and hacking into computers.

    Drilling for Dollars - Dentists at Small Smiles

    Let’s face it, if you’re like most people, you probably dread going to the dentist. Quite frankly I don’t blame you. Going to the dentist can be a very frightening place to be, not only for kids…but also adult!. But that all has changed now. Not only can you maintain the health of your teeth and ehance your attractiveness, but you can do so without any pain or anxiety.

    Easing up on fraud enforcement

    One of the many tragedies of the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina three years ago was the fact that insurance companies used the event to systematically deny claims, leaving victims further in desperate straits. That shouldn’t happen following any natural disaster, and even though the immediate storm effects did not cause as much damage as predicted, there are sure to be plenty of claims for flood damages throughout the Midwest and along Gustav’s path. If you or someone you know has been denied an insurance claim related to Gustav: that would be a site you should visit.
