Tag: Cyber attack

There has been a lot of buzz lately about a recently released film by Netflix titled ‘Leave The World Behind’ based on a novel by the same name.  The plot revolves around a catastrophic collapse in the US triggered by a cyber attack (and mass drone attack) that shuts down the internet and disrupts the global economy, leading to questions of who might have been behind the sabotage?

The most interesting aspect of the film is not so much the story (which is lackluster at best), but the fact that Barack Obama was so deeply involved in the making of the film as executive producer and as adviser on the script. This has led many people to suggest the movie is actually predictive programming – Propaganda designed to acclimate the masses to the idea of an event that is planned to happen in the near future.

The Fed is raising rates aggressively. But they didn’t keep interest rates close to zero for 14 years for no reason: it was because rising rates will make the Mega Debt unpayable. They say they’re raising rates to ‘fight inflation’, but in reality, the Fed is pulling the trigger on the Debt Bubble.

The Fed first started tapering in 2018. This, as predicted, immediately led to a deflationary shock, and in September 2019, they ‘had to’ restart Quantitative Easing. To bail out both the banks, and the real economy, both facing a liquidity squeeze.

This came to a climax in the weekend of March 18th 2020, when they gave Wall Street $4 Trillion to at least temporarily fix their balance sheets, while they locked up 4 billion of us, to prevent a popular revolt over the bailout.

But they ‘went too far’ (these fools know exactly what they’re doing), creating massive asset bubbles, and rising prices in the real economy. And creating the problem, infuriating everybody faced with exploding prices (the reaction), and now implementing the solution: raising rates ‘to fight inflation’.

Over the past few months I have been writing analysis on a planned crisis war game organized by the World Economic Forum called “Cyberpolygon.” The event will be held this week on July 9^th, and it’s allegedly designed to simulate a massive cyberattack that somehow disrupts the global supply chain, or at the very least disrupts the supply chain of multiple large economies.

On top of the various other challenges retirement savers already face, you now have another concern to consider: the possibility of a cyberattack.

Imagine if the life savings you set aside in your nest egg were drained with a couple of phone calls and control of your email account.

That’s precisely what happened in 2018 to a woman in her 50s, according to the Gloucester Daily, who had $200,000 snatched from her 401(k) at Alight Solutions:

Kidnappings are among the most nightmarish scenarios a person can encounter, both for the victim and their family members. The specifics can vary, but the premise tends to be uniform: the kidnappers demand a certain sum of money in order for the victim to be released safe and sound.

Yet a recent case of “virtual kidnapping” shows that criminals are always upgrading their methods in order to catch targets off-guard. In the age of advanced technology, would-be kidnappers hardly need to get up from their seats in order to extort money from those with friends and family, reports a recent USA Today article.

Such was the case of Mark Walker, a 57-year-old private eye from Indiana who received a call from what looked like his daughter’s phone. The voice on the other end belonged not to his daughter, but an erratic man claiming to have kidnapped the 34-year-old Rachel.

Last week, another round of cyber-attacks crippled computer systems across the world. As these attacks become more frequent, Americans need to understand what it means for their financial security.

For better or worse, a huge portion of what we do today happens online. And that includes our banking and investing.

Now, that’s fine if our computer systems are strong and secure. But today’s increasingly common cyber-attacks prove even the best security often isn’t enough.

Here’s why that’s bad news for anyone handling their money online, and what they should do about it…
