10 Tips to Protect Your Checking Account
10 Tips to Protect Your Checking Account
The tips for protecting your checking account are:
1. Never give the personal account number and bank routing number to anyone whom you are not familiar with. Reason being, these two key numbers are the essence which are required to create an electronic draft against a personal account. A good rule of thumb is to by no means hand out the above mentioned information if not one knows the corporation or concern asking for it or unless the account holder is the one who is initiating the transaction.
2. Avoid putting the home phone number on the cheques. One can put a mobile phone number to make sure that an alien person does not get account holder’s home listing.
3.The very common type of cheque fraud is the usage of bank cheques by some other unknown person. One should keep track of the dispatched cheques and never leave out blank ones with signatures on it. There are some individuals who can steal blank cheques to exercise for their vested interests.
4. One should review his monthly bank statement. An individual has a limited time frame to report errors and omissions, on unauthorized debits on checking account to the respective bank, normally, 90 days. If someone does not receive his bank statement of a particular month, immediately contact the concerned person or representative of that bank for the issuance.
5. It is very important to notify the bank about any trouble as soon as possible. The earlier one let his bank knows that something is wide of the mark going on, the better it will be for him. One should be well versed with all the relevant documentation including the bank statements and other important notes of conversations for the perusal.
6. Furthermore, If an account holder thinks that somebody has gained way in to his or her account, it is crucial to tell the bank and in return follow their instructions.
7. It’s not the criminals all the time, sometimes the account holders themselves create problems for themselves. If an account holder does not have enough money in his or her bank account, it is important that he or she should not write cheques or permits the debit. It is due to the law of ‘check 21′ that enables banks to convert cheques into electronic items for processing. Cheques are frequently being cleared on a much faster pace than they used to, usually as quick as a debit card transaction.
8. Another thing that is important for an account holder is that he or she should know the basic rights under the consumer protection laws.
9. While using online banking tools, at all times delete the personal user ID and passwords and then log out from the accounts once the work is complete. Never save personal information on the web page or ask the computer to remember the login ID or password. If one fails to pay attention to this advice, he or she can be left in a fix or a vulnerable situation.
10. Over drafting is also an issue that create problems. When there is a joint account and all the account holders use the debit/credit cards for buying and cash advances, with a lack of communication then this can create an overdraft in an account. One should know what the others are doing.

Perempuan pun Mengaktualisasi Diri (Raden Ajeng (RA) Kartini)
Bagi Sylviana Murni, peringatan hari lahir Raden Ajeng (RA) Kartini pada setiap 21 April adalah suatu bentuk penghormatan atas wujud perjuangan kaum perempuan yang harus tetap dikenang sebagai simbol persamaan gender dan emansipasi wanita. Perjuangan Kartini telah menginspirasi para wanita saat ini, termasuk dirinya. "Saya bangga dengan Ibu Kartini," ujarnya.
Berikut ini petikan wawancara wartawan Tempo, Sofian, dengan mantan None Jakarta tahun 1981 yang juga dianggap sebagai perempuan pertama yang menjabat Wali Kota di DKI Jakarta ini. Bagaimana Anda melihat perempuan sekarang ini?
Saya merasa bangga dengan perempuan saat ini. Betapa banyaknya kaum Hawa yang sukses dan menempati jabatan strategis baik di swasta, dunia usaha, maupun pemerintahan. Perempuan pun sudah mengaktualisasikan kualitas dirinya secara profesional.Pengalaman
Anda sebagai pemimpin perempuan?
Pada 1 April lalu tepat satu tahun saya menjabat sebagai Wali Kota Jakarta Pusat. Menjadi pemimpin di Jakarta Pusat bukanlah hal yang mudah, mengingat tugas sebagai show window-nya Ibu Kota sehingga membutuhkan tekad, keberanian, dan dukungan seluruh elemen masyarakat.
Pada awal saya bertugas sebagai wali kota, saya berdiskusi dengan wali kota sebelumnya dan belajar dari jajaran pemerintah Jakarta Pusat sampai di tingkat Kelurahan, serta menjalin hubungan dengan tokoh masyarakat. Alhamdulillah, tahun pertama dapat saya lalui dengan memperoleh 18 penghargaan untuk Jakarta Pusat, dari tingkat provinsi sampai tingkat nasional. Tapi saya belum puas karena ada beberapa rencana kerja yang harus dilaksanakan secara berkesinambungan.
Apa yang dibutuhkan perempuan untuk bisa maju sejajar dengan laki-laki?
Peranan kaum perempuan di sektor publik sudah semakin meningkat. Ayo berjuang, tapi tetap ingat, jangan lupa kodrat dan tugas utama sebagai perempuan. Keharmonisan dalam rumah tangga adalah salah satu indikator akan suksesnya perempuan mengaktualisasikan dirinya dalam karier.
Harapan mengenai peran perempuan ke depan?
Keinginan Kartini yang begitu kuat agar wanita dapat dihargai dan memperoleh pendidikan yang layak seharusnya menjadi inspirasi bagi kaum perempuan saat ini. Kesempatan sudah terbuka lebar, hanya tinggal keberanian, tekad, dan keinginan kuatlah yang harus dimiliki setiap perempuan yang ingin maju menuju sukses.

Percubaan Pemurtadan Nenek Tiri Obama Timbulkan Kemarahan
Percubaan Pemurtadan Nenek Tiri Obama Timbulkan Kemarahan
Sebuah gereja Kenya dikabarkan mencoba membawa nenek tiri.
Presiden Amerika Serikat (AS), Barack Obama, untuk beralih ke agama Kristen.
Namun percobaan itu telah mencetuskan kemarahan masyarakat Islam. Mereka mendesak pemerintah menghalangi usaha tersebut.
Sebagaimana diketahui, gereja Seventh Day Adventist di kota Kisumu di barat Kenya dikabarkan telah berusaha menjadikan Mama Sarah (87), yang tak lain nenek tiri Barack Obama, menjadi Kristen dalam sebuah acara besar-besaran, Sabtu lalu.
Namun Sarah, yang sejatinya seorang Muslim terkejut dan menolak acara tersebut. “Ketika saya mendengar ada rencana menjadikan saya penganut Kristen, saya menolak,” katanya dikutip The Standard.
Upaya pemurtadan yang akan dilakukan terhadap Mama Sarah oleh Gereja Advent Hari Ketujuh itu menuai reaksi keras dari kalangan umat Islam di negara berpenduduk 32 juta jiwa itu.
Sosok Sarah menjelma menjadi seorang selebritis di Kenya, sejak cucunya menjadi presiden Amerika November 2006.Sarah pernah ditunjuk langsung oleh Uni Afrika menjadi Duta Uni Afrika memerangi lalat tsetse.
Lalat tsetse menyebabkan penyakit tidur dan menyebarkan infeksi pada ternak.Majelis Ulama dan Imam Kenya mengecam rencana pemurtadan yang akan dilakukan Gereja Advent Hari Ketujuh terhadap Mama Sarah.
Sekretaris Majelis Ulama dan Imam Kenya, Syeikh Mohamed Khalifa, seperti dikutip kantor berita AFP, menilai upaya yang dilakukan pihak gereja itu sebagai bentuk provokasi."Saya menyesalkan upaya yang dilakukan pihak gereja yang memaksa Mama Sarah berpindah agama,'' papar Syeikh Khalifa.
''Mengapa hanya dia? Mengapa hal itu tak dilakukan sebelum Obama menjadi presiden?
Apakah mereka melihatnya sebelum cucunya menjadi presiden? Kami siap melindungi agama kami,'' tutur Syeikh Khalifa menegaskan. [cha, berbagai sumber/www.hidayatullah.com]
