Email Dated 07/08/09 Dear David, Just a note to thank you for dealing so effectively with my serious computer problem. You took my PC away and not only upgraded its memory but brought it back up to speed. In fact I think you made it even better than new!   Advice I had received from others had failed to do any good at all - you told me in advance what your service would cost and although I am sure there were more bugs to find and remove than you anticipated you kept to your (very reasonable) price.   One small remaining glitch (which I caused) you dealt with by remote control. It was fascinating to watch as you manipulated my computer from afar and demonstrated your complete mastery of computer technology.   Thanks again - I will happily recommend you to anyone who needs prompt, friendly and skilled help or advice in this field.   Sincerely. Stanley

Email Dated 15/09/09 To Dave & Thomas, Thanks for your help over the last couple of days. You were recommended to by the stationery shop by Morrison’s garage.  I shall pass on your details if I know anyone needs any computer assistance and will be in touch myself if I need any help in the future. Once again thanks.  Regards,  Thelma

Extract From the Clevedon Mercury Dated 24/08/2007 ID THEFT RISK AS STAFF AT TIP CLEAN UP Be the first reader to comment on this story 18:00 - 23 August 2007 People who dispose of old computers at a council tip have been put at risk of identity theft due to staff flogging the discarded items for profit. Undercover television reporters were shown buying computers full of personal details from the Black Rock Quarry Recycling Centre in Portishead. The reporter, from current affairs show Biteback, was secretly filmed buying five computers from a workman who told him if he dropped a £10 note on the floor by the drinks machine he could take as many computers as he wanted. The programme, aired on ITV on Monday evening, claimed reporters had obtained computers from the site on two other occasions. When the computers were tested by experts, a huge amount of personal information was found, including bank details, investment statements, job applications, holiday pictures and hotel bookings. Identity fraud is estimated by the Home Office to cost the UK economy £1.7 billion per year and thieves are adopting increasingly sophisticated techniques to get information. Victims can end up thousands of pounds in debt and be locked into a nightmare web of financial and legal problems which take years to resolve. The Black Rock site is run by Viridor on behalf of North Somerset Council. Viridor, which operates 25 landfill sites and hundreds of waste-processing sites around the country, hit back at the programme makers, saying it is up to all residents who leave computers at the site to ensure all personal data is removed. A spokesman for North Somerset Council said: "Since October 2006, our waste contractors Viridor have put in place new arrangements which prohibit the exchange of money for goods at our household recycling centres. "We are investigating this issue with Viridor, and the individual who has broken this arrangement has been removed from the site. "Any further evidence of this behaviour will be dealt with accordingly. "We are in the process of installing new signs at our household recycling centres. "This will include clear notices at the entrance to each site to state no goods can be sold from there. "We will also install signage at the points where electrical items are collected which states residents should ensure all personal data is removed from items prior to their disposal. "North Somerset Council cannot be responsible for data left on any computers or equipment disposed of at any of these sites." Clevedon computer expert, David Till, of DTechnics, Hill Road, said short of smashing the hard drive with a hammer, the only way to guarantee deleting sensitive information was to get an expert to wipe it clean. He said: "Owners assume that because saved data has been deleted from the hard drive that passwords, bank details, credit card numbers and other personal information have been eliminated for ever, but this is far from the truth."
