You may not know this but a lot of credit card fraud, hackers and spammers us what you call a proxy server where they can hide their IP address and go undetected. The fact is, even blogs are targeted using proxy servers by hackers and spammers. If you are a merchant with an online store, you would want to protect your site from fraudulent individuals where they use credit cards to purchase merchandise from your store only to find out later that the identity provided by the buyer isn’t real. You will suffer chargebacks and loss of revenue if you’re not vigilant in protecting your site.
There is a solution to that. Did you know that you can detect anonymous servers by using a program that will provide you an Anonymous Proxy List. You can use the tool simply by placing a code in your website that will detect whether the incoming IP address is using a proxy or not. This will help deter spammers and hackers as soon as they see that their access is being traced.
The IP2Proxy provides a proxy list that merchants can use to identify hackers and fraudulent users within a 24 hour period. It is a very manageable tool that webmasters can utilize and it is customizable where the report can be automated to run at specified or scheduled times.
You may also download a Free tool by going to http://www.ip2location.com/demo-ip2proxy.aspx, copying the code and embedding the code into your site. This is a free detection tool that would provide a unique display on your site telling the user whether he has been detected using a proxy server or not. You should give it a try.

The Yahoo Group email that was started by our very own, Divina “Binday” Dominguez-Garcia is alive and well. We all communicate through it, including the Dangoys, the Alcalas, Tanchicos, and the Dominguez clan. However, we haven’t seen much reaction from the Lavariases and the Dizons.
The calendar is well updated (from the active members such as Ate Corrie for the Tanchicos, and Maridee for the Dangoys). Thanks to their active participation.
We would l ike to request for a representative from the Dizons and the Lavariases to help us update the calendars with birthdays, anniversaries and other important dates so that members may be made aware of the special events that they have in mind.
Again many thanks to the active participants… let’s keep the yahoogroup growing.

To all those who didn’t know, I went home to the Philippines last month to help a friend bury his father’s ashes. I didn’t have a chance to go to Baclaran to see our property there but from my understanding, it isn’t doing too good. I would invest in it only if you will all agree. I would like to take a loan and get the house completed, hire a Property Manager (companies like that are all over like Real Property Management whom we can use to manage the property) and rent it out to Balikbayans.
I just feel bad that the only thing that reminds us or ties us to our parents is this small property left behind for us. Yet, we are not utilizing it to the best that we could. We just can’t let the property sit there. What do you guys think?

Our cousin, Danette Dizon from Seattle, Washington contacted me via Facebook asking when the next Reyes Reunion would be. I haven’t responded just yet as I want to throw it out there first and get your opinion. Remember, I won’t be coordinating this reunion anymore as I already had my share (of headaches - haha!)
So, who’s in? Are you willing to host a reunion? Maryland or New York? Philippines?
Let me know who’s interested and I’ll send an Evite out.

There are many opportunities still undiscovered in the Philippines. Anyone who wants to earn could earn money, given the right opportunity. Of course, you need capital. Once capital is found, a good business plan and a strong heart for success. Everyone knows it takes at least a year or two to get a business off the ground.
My friend wants to open a furniture business in the Philippines. While we were there, he started looking for a space where he could rent. Offices may be found through the internet through listings that are offered by companies. We may have to come back next year to firm up the business plans. We’re just waiting for the economy to turn around a bit before we get started.
Crossing our fingers!

Please register and be a part of our family group.

There are lots of positive news about the economy. The stock market is doing really well globally. Is the economic crisis over? Well, let’s hope so.
To some of the families, it may not be the end just yet specially the ones who were laid off during the peak of the crisis. President Barack Obama is doing his best to move the economy forward. I heard that the bill was signed to prevent credit cards from over-charging interest rates. That is a good thing. Lots and lots of customers in good standing (myself included) are still getting charged with exorbitant amount in interest rates which is totally unfair. We hope that this move will help consumers specially at this time when times are tough.
Those who don’t want to rely on credit cards but simply would like to obtain a short term loan could apply for a Payday Loan where they could borrow a certain amount of money and wish to pay it off immediately just to bridge the gap between paychecks. If you have the ability to pay a loan immediately in full and simply would like to borrow and spend it on tuition or books at the time you most need it, you can apply for a Payday Loan. It’s best to pay it in full so that you don’t pay high interest rates.
Let’s all hope that we’ve hit the rock bottom of this economic crisis. Let’s look forward to a healing and eventually, healthier economy in the future.

I guess you’ve all heard that I have opened up a blog on how to earn money online. Working from home part-time, can get you a few bucks that you thought you’d never be able to make. The key thing is to make your money work for your. Otherwise, the little income that I get from blogging will be just that… little. I can grow it exponentially by investing it somewhere where you can leverage your investment and watching your money grown. Investment Forge is such a place where you can to this. If you own a small business or have spare change to invest, you shouldn’t let it sit. Otherwise, financial freedom may feel out of reach.

I don’t know much about it yet but I received a call from Max last night (a family friend from New York) who was introducing a concept to me about a new product that is FDA approved. As we all know, getting involved at the bottom level of any MLM is the best way to go. Receiving royalty checks is the goal.
If anyone is interested, please contact me or comment on this post. We are looking for people who wants to get involved - for a mere .25 cents, you can get started. The product will be available in the Philippines in September and we’d like to get you in as soon as possible.
Let us know!
