I am not a muppet, HSBC! $7.50 is too high a fee for the RIGHT to pay my mortgage online
Happy Mothers Day Yall. I am raging today.
Anyone else stuck with HSBC for a mortgage and notice a new $7.50 fee for PAYING your mortgage online in recent days” Thanks HSBC for the “privilege” to PAY online vs. snail mail? Out-frigin’ ragous… Dear dinosaurs at HSBC US $7.50 for the right to pay my mortgage online is beyond outrageous. Ok?
Never getting my business ever again.
Look I know the regulators hav cracked down on where you can earn fee income, I get it. I can’t fault a bank for being a bank. BUT, when everyone else is forcing people online because of processing overhead you are now forcing back to snail mail because of fees. WTF?
If this has happened to you and are as angry feel free to comment or tweet to me @jdellinger.

fake Autodesk employment scam using from Susanj.Alexander an hrmanager@autodessk.org
Below is a recent employment scam I reported to scamdex.com this week that was attempted on me last week. I have not blogged in a while but I thought I would share.
| Name | Susanj.alexander (fake yahoo messanger ID) | |
|---|---|---|
| Email Address | hrmanager@autodessk.org | |
| Scam Website | http://www.autodessk.org | |
| Telephone | 7727833117 |
| If it sounds too good to be true it is. A few months back I was aggressively looking for full time work as I have just gotten out of graduate school and moved back to my state after being away for many years and was using the shotgun approach to finding work, until I got mad at the entry level call backs and just started contracting again. Contacted by text about a job interview with “Autodesk” for remote work. It was not in my target zone, but I am always willing to listen. Ignored the texts, but they got real pushy I took the interview with “Susanj.alexander,” but was suspicious once I was asked if I bank accounts and credit cards and their english us and syntax was very poor. But I felt them out. Of course, I got the “job.” I asked for an email or call from someone from the company, after “they talked to HR,” A number of hours later, I got a congrats email from hrmanager@autodessk.org… (opened in a clean browser) and more pushy texts. Yea, that is not the corporate domain or even a good bluff of it. What would I not check? Luckily the online info they got from me is already publicly available. But I have upped my defenses of my identity online and the security of my browsers and changed all my passwords in a methodical way to prevent future social hacking. If you are hanging a bit more leg out looking for work, just remember you are putting yourself at risk for getting phished or scammed. I learned the hard way.

$4 gas: Get used to it
A new U.N. report says the massive bets placed on the commodities markets are the "root cause" of the volatility in oil and gas prices. And that's not about to change.
FORTUNE -- President Obama may have a lot more to worry about than bombing the debate this week. Traders are starting to get particularly bullish over gasoline prices – and that is bad news for the average driver, who may also be looking to vent his spleen at the voting booth.
