Here to explain, doug holtzeakin, president of the American Action forum. Brian reed chief economist at Investment Company institute, a trade group that represents the Mutual Fund Industry. Guys, it has been almost six years to the day that Lehman Brothers filed bankruptcy and the government ever since has been trying to find a way to keep that kind of financial disaster from happening again. Doug, who do they have their sights on now . And what do they want to do . Well the group in question is the Financial StabilityOversight Council which was created by doddfrank. It has enormous powers to designate a Financial Institution as systematically important. If they do that, they then fall into what is meant to be a much tougher regulatory regime, specifically though, they would end up with the capital charges of 8 in, in a bankstyle regulatory setup. This is utterly inappropriate for mutual fund. It makes no sense whatsoever. It will cost people a lot of money. Gerri lets break that down for just a second because what you is a mouthful and very, very complicated. Brian, i will turn to you. Look, big banks, you know, you look at jpmorgan chase, you look at citi, you look at goldman sachs, the big investment banks, the big trading houses, those companies, boy, they can create a lot of mayhem and they sure have in the past. What about the Mutual Fund Industry . Is your industry, are you guys going to create just a nightmare for the economy . How, what are the chances . There is never been a case in 75 year history where mutual fund or Mutual Fund Investors take Financial Market problems that doddfrank intended to address. Concerns are here, rules put in place, applied to mutual funds are detrimental and detrimental to the economy as well. The flow of capital would slow,. Would stop that up like turning off a fawcett. Doug, im trying to simplify this this is not that complicated. Bunch of regulators decide the they have to put wrist discuss on mutt wall Fund Industry or close to doing it. They would essentially put in Place Capital requirements that would hamstring this industry because it doesnt operate like banks. Tell us how the structure of this business is different from a goldman sachs, different from a citibank. I can give you a very simple example how different it is, lehmans asset manager is still in business. Lehman brothers went away but asset manager is still around. Why . If you look at a mutual fund, it takes your money and invests it some stock say. That means that there is always something backing that mutual fund. They can sell the stock, give you your money back. You will never get into a problem. Gerri last time i looked it is me taking losses. Thats right. Flows right through to me. You know and i guess the fear, brian, here is what im hearing, you tell me if im right. The fear government has, every american will pull all of their dough out of the market at the same time and you know, what is going to happen . What do you respond to that . I mean you guys dont have control over that, obviously. But that is what they think is going to happen. Well, it has never happened, first of all. That is just not the way fund operate or investors operate. When i put my money in a mutual fund, im investing for the longterm. Im investing for my retirement. Im investing for my kids education. We find this money and investors are really stable. Theyre providing a base of support actually for the Capital Markets and they make the Capital Markets more stable. It is ridiculous to try to gerri here is the test, my friend. Here is the test, my friend. What happened in 2007, 2008, right . What a nightmare. People did not want to be in the markets. Did everybody pull all of their money out of mutual fund. No. That is the answer. The money pulled out was a couple of percentage of the overall asset. Vast majority of money in the market and stock fund in the beginning crisis were there during and after the crisis as well. Gerri you know, doug, i dont get it. I need you to talk to me a little bit what this ultimately could cost consumers. Because theyre telling an industry to have a capital oshkosh shun that probably doesnt need it. Where would the money come from. If you run a mutual fund, where would you pull . You. To pull it out of earnings. No other place for that money to come from. Over longterm investors life, exact person in a mutual fund were talking about 25 reduction in returns. 100,000 for lifetime investor. Gerri repeat, whoa. Repeat that. So are you telling me that you will earn 100,000 left over the lifetime of investing because of some rule from some obscure Government Committee . 100 , that is exactly what is at risk here. And remember, that obscure rule is just disguised tax. Forcing you to do something different. You might as well write the check to the federal government and its a big check. Gerri brian, quickly, i know this isnt a fast answer, but, what should be done . Should the government do anything to try to prevent another 20072008 . You know they have done that. One of the clear sources was leverage and trying to keep the amount of debt sort of manageable. Mutual fund dont issue debt. When i invest in a fund im investing directly in that stock and that bond. The actually, mutual fund provide stability and i think that is what is important to keep in mind. Regulators have dealt with it. Lets not overreach here. Gerri so bottom line, if this happens, investors like me and you will be paying double the fees on our mutual funds. I tell you, i pay enough fees already. I dont need enough fees, particularly ones instituted by the government. Doug and brian, thank you. Thank you. Gerri well the government isnt only putting your finances at risk but your safety as well. Listen to this. An Inspector General report reveals Homeland Security is quote, illprepared for potential pandemics despite having a 47 million budget. With more on this. David michael balboni, senior fellow at Homeland Security policy institute and former new york state Homeland Security director. Knows what he talks about. Michael, welcome back to the show. This is just outrageous. How did this happen . What is going on . Unfortunately if you look at gao reports in the past, government accounting office. You see this is kind of a, something happened before. This not first time this is happening. But what is happening right now, in the wake of ebola and incident, people in this country are saying, gee, are we prepared . What you find from this report. The 47 million that congress put back in 2006 has not been spent the right way. Now, when i was here in the states i had role in overseeing stockpiles here. It takes maintenance. It takes rotating the stock. Theyre not doing that. Some of the things in the report i know you have seen are kind of outrageous. 16 million surgical masks but yet they dont say why they need 16 million. Gerri why do you need 16 million surgical masks or 350,000 white coverall suits . They didnt establish a need for any of this. Just to show folks some elements out from this report, i want you to see this, 81 of antiviral medication on hand will expire next year. 84 of Hand Sanitizer stockpiles have expired. Less of an issue in my view. Stockpiles of five million in antibiotics might not be usable because how the medication is being stored. What is going on at Homeland Security . Why are we so lax about this . Particularly now when we face threats on every level . We face health threats. We face threats from isis. What are they doing . Well it is really their job to watch this. Difficult to maintain a lot of these stocks, granted. You never know when they will be used. What type of preparation you have to do. But that is what theyre supposed to do. That is their whole charter. They have oversight. Other thing you Pay Attention to, were look lack opportunity to leverage new technologies. There are antianthrax sack keynes we can use. There are cac convenience we there are different strategies we can use. If youre not focused maintaining stockpile and constantly engaged you lose those opportunities. Gerri so is this in your view a National Security issue . Were talking after all, about stuff that makes people healthier. Stuff that would protect people in the event of a national pandemic. Is that a National Security issue . It erodes peoples confidence if something were to happen the government will be able to respond. Real challenge, if you had all the right things, responding effectively to a pandemic with all the panic associated with it is very difficult thing. Go back to h1n1. Gerri no kidding. What should they be doing right now . Department of Homeland Security accepted office of Inspector General report. They say theyre correcting this. They have a whole bunch of recommendations theyre going to adopt and taking money an applying it and not walking away. Continue to monitor, rotate and make the stockpile effective. Not to have it on the shelf. Gerri given in previous reports just like this, how confident are you the problem will be fixed . That is the oversight of congress. Talking with congressman peter king this is his constant effort. Constant effort. Got to watch how the department does this stuff. Gerri great to have you here, michael. I know well see you soon. Thank you. We still have a lot more to come this hour. Including your voice. Your voice is important to us. During the show we want you to facebook me or tweet me gerriwillisfbn. Send me e ail by going to the website, gerriwillis. Com. At bottom of the hour well read emails. What you think of the show, what you would like to see. Seems were paying more for everything these days. Now you an add milk to the list. Waituntil you hear numbers coming up. Crises. Gerri dont have to tell you, you problem already know. Milk prices hit new high. Prices are up even though americans drink less of it. The high prices pushing up other Consumer Staples like cheese and pizza. For more we have the editor of supermarket guru. Com. Good to see you, phil. Welcome back to the show. So why are these prices so high . Well, there is a variety of reasons. As you point out there is actually decline in per capita consumption. There is less cows out there number one. Number two, were exporting. Number three, if we look at the drought in california, what has happened and california is the number one milkproducing state in the country. What happened is the feed is too expensive. You actually have Dairy Farmers who are selling off their cattle because they cant afford to feed the cows. Gerri wow. You know, i like milk a lot but what i like even better is butter and cheese. Lets look at those prices. They are up too. Cheese is up 7. 1 . Butter up 16. 5. This is interesting. I mean, you raised the price of milk. A whole category of things go higher in price. Phil, how does it ripple through . Well, take a look, number one, about milk. About 30 of milk is actually used for fluid milk or cream. Then, youve got the other part, about 13 , is actually used for export. Of that, 30 . But then the biggest use of milk, about half of milk is actually used for cheese. So, the ripple effect, as you point out, whether it is cheese, whether it is yogurt, cream cheese, cottage cheese, the list goes on and on, ice cream, pizza. Gerri i like it all. I do too. Milk is good for us. Lets not forget. We still have vitamind deficiencieses. We still have calcium deficiencies. Milk is a good thing. Gerri the thing that got our attention what they call class 3 milk futures. This is milk used in products like cheese and yogurt. It is up 26 this year alone. It is at the highest price now than it has ever, ever been. I just, i still dont get why those prices can go up so much when we have so much less inflation in other parts of the economy . How much of this milk are we exporting . Is that the problem . No. Only about 13 , most of that goes to either mexico, china, or canada. But, keep in mind, when we talk about the futures markets, there is speculating what is going to happen. Gerri right. For example, a lot of the food and a lot of milk used in processing today, they already have the contracts going back a year, two years, three years. So it is really projecting what the price of pizza is going to be like in a year, two years, or three years and that is what is driving it up. Gerri that is not good news. If that is where they see prices going. I want to share with viewers, a picture from dylan, who showed us his fridge. I asked people to tweet us some pictures. Dylan tweet ad picture of his coconut milk and his booze, crown royal in his refrigerator. Of the tell me what are the substitutes that are gaining a lot of ground and really selling . Well, the Fastest Growing is actually almond milk. Soy used to be but soy sales declined. Whole bunch of reasons for that. Some have to do with allergies. Some to do with scientific reports but almond milk is the clear winner right now. When it comes to coconut, were seeing a lot more growth in Coconut Water than actual coconut milk. It is about the same but Coconut Waters, many are adding sweeteners to them. They talk about hydration for athletes. Really more of a replacement for gatorade, if you would, versus cows milk. I think well see more and more alternatives as time goes on. And again, you know, per capita consumption since 1970 is down substantially. Gerri why . Were talking about it being down 40 . Gerri why . They are not drinking milk. Theyre drinking more soda. That is the number one cause. Drinking more water. And frankly a lot of Dairy Farmers, even though right now their Profit Margins are terrific because of these high prices but a lot of Dairy Farmers gone out of business because of losing those sales. Gerri i understand, being a Dairy Producer right now can be pretty lucrative. Phil, there is Nothing Better than a glass of milk and a pbj . You know what i mean, that fine eating in my view. One final question for you here. There is a, you know, the question of nutrients. Because milk gives you calcium in a way some of these alternatives do not. What should mom and dad be thinking about . Mom and dad should be thinking about vitamind and calcium both together because it aids absorption. As you point out, naturally occurring calcium is better than calcium b added to things. We see a lot of calcium in juices and like. Gerri right. Not absorbed as well in oured about dis. We have to read the labels. I agree with you about milk and Peanut Butter and jelly, perfect combination. The milk producers have gotten about that. Theyre trying to get us to drink chocolate milk. Theyre trying to put bubbles in milk. Theyre trying to do all things. Drink milk the way it is supposed to be drunk with Peanut Butter and jelly sandwich, well all be happy. Gerri well all be happy. Phil, thanks for coming on, phil, thank you. Good to see you, gerri. Thank you. Gerri maybe well get a pbj on the set. Are you drinking less milk . Vote on gerriwillis. Com.

Catch up on what everyones talking about with the x1 entertainment operating system. Preloaded with the latest episodes of the top 100 shows. Only from xfinity. Gerri Ford Motor Company getting ready to launch its all new 2015 f150 truck, but it is made mostly out of aluminum, the way it is put together well, it is quite interesting. With more on this, jeff flock who joins us from romeo, michigan, jeff . Just one of the interesting storylines, gerri. This is interesting truck. All aluminum right there. When you make it all out of aluminum, you take 700 pounds off the truck. Essentially you can toe and carry 700 more pound that you used to because the truck isnt 700pound heavier, right, Eric Peterson . That is absolutely right. Take the weight out of the truck it has better capabilities and better efficiencies and that is better way to make a truck. Gerri is adhesive issue. Used to be steel with welds. And now aluminum with rivets and glue i would call it. How could i possibly be as strong . High strength adhesives, go with high Strength Military grade military aalloy and rivets and blue. The strong ad theseselves go along with the rivets and screws with powerful bond. We use more advanced adhesives. Here is the deal, gerri. The prove is in the ride i think. That is what we were able to do, first reporter, i was proud to be the first reporter to take a ride in the new f150 all aluminum. We really put it through its paces today. We went through something called silver creek, which essentially is a torture track. Durability test. It is modeled after a tough creekbed dried out to do most extreme type testing to toughest durability run to prove not only this truck but all of our trucks are built ford tough. I got to tell you, gerri, headline is getting a ride and feeling what this truck is like. A lot of people will feel it will feel light and flimsy. I must tell you that my laymans read on it feels like a reeling lar truck to me and a lot of the dealers here, you had dealers here today, people that will be selling this truck, youre on a 26city tour. Youre heading off this is gamble for ford. Youre taking gam medical in next city of las vegas. We like to look at smart investment. Were excited. More capability and efficiency. Take this to our dealers and customers. Dealers get a firsthand experience with touch and materials. Drive the truck. Get same kind of confidence we have so they can pass it on to their customers. Biggest launch for ford since maybe the mustang in the early 60s. Its a big thing for this company. Bestselling vehicle in this country for the last three decades, gerri. It was a fun day to get a look behind the scenes at how they are getting this vehicle out there. It will be in showrooms in december. Gerri jeff i have some questions. But i do want to say, you are a total rock star for being the first journalist being able to drive that. I have more questions about the adhesives. If it gets really hot, does it become unglued . And further, further, aluminum, like the last car i remember that was all aluminum, wasnt it the delorean . I just, is america going to accept an allaluminum f150 . This is iconic. This is such a critical brand. Well, first of all, no cocaine was purchased in the construction of this car, unlike the delorean, the last aluminum car we saw that was popular. These adhesives, do you know, dt hot . Only question, maybe. Sound like not so much. No. Actually the heat actually helps form that bond, so we actually heat, heat the aluminum, heat adhesives to create a nice bond with the material. Makes it stronger than the actual aluminum itself. Increases strength. This truck gets stronger with the heat. Different aluminum perhaps than the aluminum the delorean used in day . Im not familiar with they used in the day but military grade lump e aluminum in this truck is enough to be built ford tough. Built ford tough is what they say, gerri. Gerri mighty pretty. Tell you that. Jeff, thanks for coming on. Appreciate your time. Thanks, gerri. Appreciate it. Gerri time now for a look at stories youre clicking on foxbusiness. Com.

Feel that in your muscles . Yeah. I do. Try a new way to bank, where no branches equals great rates. Gerri tonight we have some good news for parents dealing with children with autism. A new Study Reveals the importance of early intervention. Here with more is dr. Robert malilo, author of, autism, the scientific truth about preventing, diagnosing and treating Autism Spectrum Disorders and what parents can do now. That is learnly what were talking about tonight. Doctor, thanks for being on the show. So the study were talking about, you said it was shocking, surprising and very important to parents with autistic children. Only seven kids were tested though. What did this small study showed . What it showed which is very important, for years people said there is nothing can be done with autism and it is genetic disorder. Gerri a life sentence. A life sentence, you have to manage it. This is one of the other studies showing it is not true, it is not the case. We may be able to actually eliminate it, reverse it or even prevent it. Gerri in the study they watched babies very, very carefully. Tell me exactly what they did and how they managed to pull these kids back from the brink. The study was done at mind institute at university of call davis. This is welldocumented study. They looked at sixtonine month old children and did an intervention which was fairly simplistic. Teaches parents how to be more attentive to the childs cues and subtle social things. Gerri what does that do though . How is that an advantage . You know we know that in autism what were seeing areas of brain, especially on the right side that are related to nonverbal communication, eye contact, facial expression, are delayed in development. Not broken or damaged, just delayed. So by a parent maybe being even more attentive than normal you may stimulate those areas of the brain, so now they grow. And so what they did they followed these children out and found one year of age, that basically five of the seven children had no signs of autism any longer. And that one of them had much more subtle signs. So that is a pretty significant change. No kidding. So, what is a parental takeaway from this study in your view . What should mom and dad learn here . For me, our brain mal centers we work with these children all the time. Said youve been working with these kids for 20 years. We are work with, we work with higher functioning autism kids and do see elimination and significant improvement. So the idea that many of the parents come into us have been told, literally at three, four, five, six years old they need to look for institution. There is nothing that can be done. This is what happens. And what parents should know, is that be autism can be helped and in many cases it may actually be completely reversed. Gerri and you said, it is not genetic if you can turn it around. Exactly. Gerri in fact the actual causes of autism may be what . Environmental thing like age, vitamin deficiencies. Folic acid deficiencies. High stress hormones. Exposure to certain types of toxins. Mostly things we can change or eliminate or avoid or even reverse. Gerri doctor, before you go, tell parents out there who may have a small child the things they should be looking at. Again these are little babies. Theyre not very big. What are the signals, symbols, the cues that your baby is giving you it may be autistic . One of earliest things, is nonverbal communication between mother and child which can be noted one month of age. It has been shown, looking at one to two months of age you can identify a child who may be autistic, focusing on mothers eyes and facial expression or looking around them also is the child rolling over appropriately . Are they crawling on time . Are they delayed in walk. Many of those motor milestones are very, very important although many parents are note theyre not. Gerri doctor, fascinating study. Thanks for telling us about it. Thank you. Gerri another story. A fourth american who contracted ebola in west africa arrived in atlanta at the very same hospital two other aid workers successfully recovered from the disease. Here with more is fox newss john robbers. John . Good afternoon to you, gerri. There is shroud of confidentiality surrounding this ebola patient unlike the other three who came to the United States in recent weeks. We dont know a whole lot about this person. Emory health care is playing its cards close to its vest as the who, this patient was working. This is american doctor who contracted ebola in sierra leone. At the same time the World Health Organization said one of its doctors was infected with ebola working at a hospital 150 miles outside the capital of freetown over the weekend that. Person was medevaced. If you put two and two together you might come up with a four. Like others that arrived at the emory medical center. It arrived at Dobbins Air Force base after daybreak this morning. Made the ambulance trip down here to emory medical center. Was able to, upon exiting the ambulance, walk into the hospital under his own power. I say his, because it appeared to be a male patient, fairly tall, dressed head to toe in the tie beck suit. The person may get experimental treatments. Doctor from emory they said they believe basic medical care is probably about the best thing they can give this patient. Of the listen. We really think high level Supportive Care we have been delivering to our previous two patients, ability to check labs, ability to give good iv fluids and correct electrolyte and nutritional problems will be the mainstay of our therapy. This epidemic is getting nothing but worse in west africa either. The w. H. O. Said that, and used this word, that the patient count is increasing quote, exponentially, which may be a bit of an overstatement but clearly, gerri, things are horrible there. Every time medical services, whether it is doctor without goarders or w. H. O. Opens new clinic it is inundated by hidden caseload of people out there in community they had no idea were infected with ebola, gerri. Gerri john, exponential growth. Is there a way to sop this thing . Well at the moment, no. W. H. O. Expects that if you launched a massive worldwide response to this you might get control of it within six to nine months but consider these statistics. More than 4200 people have fallen ill with the disease. Almost 2300 of them have died. 500 of those deaths in just the last week. And the to among medical workers, really, gerri is incredible. As of late august, 240 medical workers have fallen ill with ebola. Of them, 120 people have died. I know it is a lot of figures to digest but each and everyone of those is a person, either a person on the ground there in west africa or dedicated medical worker. This thing is just really, really awful. Gerri numbers are eyepopping. John, thanks for bringing them to us. Thanks, gerri. And when we come back, well have the latest as home depot finally confirms, finally, finally, it was hacked. Are you a victim . Next the wait is over. There are rumors no more. Apple unveils its new line of products. Do they reserve rave reviews . Is bigger better . Well take a look. Here is the consumer gauge. Take a look at numbers that mean the most to you.

Available as an oral rinse, toothpaste, spray or gel, biotene can provide soothing relief, and it helps keep your mouth healthy, too. Remember, while your medication is doing you good, a dry mouth isnt. Biotene for people who suffer from dry mouth. Gerri the curtains opened and seas departed and apple unveiled its nowism phones. Well introduce the apple watch and apple pay. Are they really worth your money and your privacy . Rob enderle, tech an from the Enderle Group is here with his take. Before we get to anything, i want to know, did they surpass your expectations . Did you feel wow, that is exciting or how did you rate the whole event . Well, probably a bminus on a typical scale. Gerri that is great inflation. Grade inflation. Everything that was announced was pretty much expected and end result there wasnt a ton of excitement. We knew about the payment program. We knew about the watch. We knew about the phones and phone sizes. The only real surprise the watch will not show up until after christmas. That is not a miss steve jobs would have made. You miss a Fourth Quarter profit, you miss christmas and you kind of miss the quarter. That is very interesting. Weve done some investigative work here. We believe youre carrying samsung on to the set there, am i right . Am i carrying a samsung on to the set . Into. Ive got a, the phone i have a nokia 930. Gerri okay. All right. You know, suffice it to say youre not necessarily an apple acolyte. I do want to talk about the apple watch. This is getting a lot of play. Weve been showing pictures they showed in the meeting over and over and over again today. Do you rate it a buy, sell or hold . Lets talk about some features of this thing. Were seeing pictures right now. With any apple product like this. Basically an ipod with straps on it. You want to wait until the second version. I wouldnt buy this one. I wait to the second one. Recognize these tend to be Fourth Quarter products. If youre giving it as a gift, nobody wants an iou in their box. So the you want something that will actually work. There are plenty of smartwatches in the market from samsung, motorola. The one folks at google conference liked was the moto 360. A couple of friends of mind have those. I think there is a plenty of product out there you can get within the christmas season. Gerri you know what i thought . Im looking at this thing, look, if i lived in cupertino and San Francisco generally and wore jeans and tshirt to work every day it would look great. But i doesnt. I work in a place where you have to dress up so not so much. Im a fan of apple products. Price tag is 349 . Is that the right price point and getting fitness and workout apps, read email and see texts, there is a lot going on with this product . There is. Recognize most of the watches coming to market will be under 200. I think that is probably the sweet spot here. Apple can carry the higher price. To open up the market they can carry a higher price. I dont think it will stop apple buyers, certainly not apple fans. This is the not price well see volume. Volume products will be between 100 to 200. Eventually like we saw with the smaller ipods well see a lot of these things go eventually for under 100 bucks. To start off a market and have highend product to start it off, 350 is palatable for those folks who have the money. Gerri wow that is interesting. I want to talk about apple pay. So, the iphone 6 has it. And theyre also going to put it on the watch. So now, using near field technology, which frankly is moving nor than radio signals, okay . You will be able to pay for things using your iphone, using this apple watch whenever it does actually hit the market. Is it going to be worth it . Heres the thing. So every american in the country is worried that they bought something at home depot in the last six to eight months and now they will have their personal identity stolen. Is this the solution to that . Not necessarily. I mean the problem with home depot or target or any of the rest is the data is being stolen from the back end. It has not been stolen from the device. As long as the store has data regardless how they got it, youre exposed if the store is open to an attack. This doesnt protect you against that. This does prevent having your credit card stolen or credit card duplicated. Somebody running around with a fake credit card, only if this is the only device that was used against your account. If you have a credit card youre really not protected because they can still get to the magnetic strip for the same banking information. There is basically a credit card underneath the iphone app. So it doesnt really solve a problem. Makes it a bit more convenient. The phone ive got here has nc built into it. When it works right, you tap it on something and pays what youre tapping on. If you transfer payment and payment is transferred. It is quite a bit easier and much less likely to leave it behind than you would a credit card but it doesnt solve the problem with exposed, with stores that arent secure enough.

Gerri new details emerging on home depots data breach. Now reports say that as many as 60 million credit card numbers could have been stolen t could have been you. That would make home depots breach the biggest yet. Here with important advice for your privacy, kim commando, host of the kim komando show. Thanks tore joining us. 60 Million People and same malware used in the target breach where 40 million were initially impacted. Are we not learning anything . Whats going on here . It is just crazy, isnt it, that we have the target breach with 40 million. We have home depot with 60 million, using same breach tactic, going into back end of point of sale system n target case it was heating and air contracting contractor that had access to everything. Now we have home depot, it brings up the point are we winning a war here . I think hackers are in charge right now. Gerri it would seem that way, thats for sure. Seems like we hear a new name every day. A lot of people are out there asking, can i find out if my identity is stolen before i lose money . What is the answer to that . You know, heres the deal, no longer can you be just a passive consumer. You have to be a proactive. I know so many people you dont want to check your Bank Statements or credit cards because maybe you dont have a lot of money in the bank and maybe you have a lot of credit card debt. So the last thing you want to do is check your statements right . How depressing is that . But the thing that you want to do is keep tabs on everything. Because what the hackers do, they buy all these credit cards and in what is called dumps. Dumps are 5,000 to 10,000 credit card numbers. They run them through this entire automated system. Try to make really small charges, like 1. 99 or 59 cents or 99 cents. Theyre checking validity of cards they later on can use for bigger purchase. By the way i found this fascinating. If you buy a whole bunch of dumps and some credit card numbers are not valid anymore, the black market folks will actually give you a refund. Gerri works like conventional retailer.
