The most beautiful words you can use for email

The following posting is republished from March of 2013. It remains very popular.













Some of my earlier blogs have dealt with torpedo words which can often have an immediate negative effect on the recipient. Similarly, a good choice of certain words, selectively used, can evoke a range of better received reactions by a recipient. So much of an email is subtle that any positive item can make a difference.

It is well to keep in mind that certain positive, strong or beautiful words each can be best placed in personal, professional or specific email related to other categories. This specific discussion would take much more time and space to be completely addressed in a single blog.

Try a simple test in your next few emails.

The next few times you compose a medium sized email, before you send each of them respectively, save them first. Go to the list below and see if there is a synonym for a word or two and try substituting it. Read it back and see if it sounds better. If this works, start your own list and incorporate it. Hopefully, within a short time, your emails will improve.

If any reader has some suggested words to append to this list, kindly do post them. Here is the list.

abundance/abundant	felicity
accomplished	flexible
accuracy	fluidity
adaptability	generous
admirable	genuine
adroit	graceful
agile	gracious

exuberant	worthiness
faithful	zenith
far-reaching

Happy emailing and good Netiquette!

How to report identity fraud

     Most adults know that email offers great potential for fraud.  Billions of such messages are sent daily.  The IRS alone, accounting to its website, has identified almost 33,000 forwarded scam e-mails, reflecting more than a thousand different incidents.  Investigations by the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration have identified host sites in numerous countries, including Argentina, Aruba, Australia, Austria, Canada, Chile, China, England, Germany, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Mexico, Poland, Singapore, Slovakia and the United States.  In the USA, if you believe you have received fraudulent messages, they should be reported.  You should also flag these as spam in your email package.

      Here are some organizations to contact:

·    The FBI:Internet Fraud Complaint Center (IFCC).They work closely with their counterparts in other countries to identify, apprehend and close down the groups who are organizing these crimes.

·    The FTC: Federal Trade Commission.  If you believe that your personal information has been compromised or stolen, you should report the circumstances to the FTC National Resource for Identity Theft and visit their site to learn how you can minimize the damage.

     To assist the investigation, attach and send fake email messages to authorities.  Reporting fake messages to authorities helps in the effort to combat phishing schemes.  There’s information buried in the header of an email that technical experts require in order to flush out flush out fraud or abuse.  Without this documentation the experts may be unable to pursue an investigation.  Follow the steps below to send the full original header of the message you want to report.  Here are a few email addresses you can use to report suspicious email:

            reportphishing@antiphishing.org (goes to Anti-Phishing Working Group)
