I hope they are worthy of everyone’s attention. I wish to emphasize that the goal of my second novel – The Girl Who Woke Up In The Morgue – is to call attention to the newest danger of opiates specifi cally that of fentanyl. My novel occurs in the mythical town of Springdale at the turn of this century. It parallels the emergence of a new class of potent drugs – synthetic opioids – that were easily mass produced in laboratories; marketed by Big Pharma as “safe and nonaddictive drugs,” OxyContin, Dilaudid and Vicodin soon became household names. America soon learned that these pills in their medicine cabinets were deadly – especially seductive for the young people. Springdale represents any community in America – urban or rural, affl uent or working class – who have been touched by this disease. My novel hopefully puts a face on those crusaders who identifi ed and fought those responsible for the “pill mill” epidemic. As a result, abuse of prescription opioids is no longer an issue. Anyone trying to get something stronger than aspirin after knee surgery today realizes this very quickly. But the opiate scourge is worse – much worse. As the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) agent Grey predicted in my novel “the snake has changed its shape.” He refers to the fact that the opioid issue went underground with the new restrictions in recent years. A black market has now emerged with makeshift labs producing the favorite opioid today, fentanyl. Designed as a prescription for those in severe pain – such as end-stage cancer patients – it can be one hundred times stronger that morphine. Greedy drug dealers have learned how to create it in this country, leading to a dangerous lottery for users. Various amounts of fentanyl may be found in heroin, cocaine and fake pills that look like fentanyl that look like benign pink pills. In my novel I add a postscript I thought I would share; a public safety alert from the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) dated September 27, 2021. “The DEA warns the American public of the alarming increase and availability of fake prescription pills containing fentanyl and methamphetamine. International and domestic criminal drug networks are mass producing fake pills and marketing them as legitimate prescription pills. More than 9.5 million counterfeits were seized so far this year which is more that the last two years combined. According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), more than 93,000 Americans died of drug overdoses in 2020. Fentanyl is the primary driver of the of this alarming increase.” I write a poem titled, A Funeral Director’s Wish, at the conclusion of my novel – something I never attempted in my life. I wrote it not for the young person in a casket but for the survivors who might learn from another’s mistake. As the title of this article declares, fentanyl does not give many second chances. Good young people might succumb to adventure or peer pressure with deadly results. A Funeral Director’s Wish I wish you could see What your late brethren have taught me No decisions are left Shame and regret no more I wish you could listen To the guilt and anguish That is your legacy An eternal weight on those left behind I wish you could hear The echoes of your death So much to off er So much to love I wish you were me Learning lessons from fateful decisions Of choosing to embrace a high Left the world denied your talents (Editor’s Note: Stephen Rocco is a retired funeral director and author of two novels, “The Girl Who Woke Up In The Morgue” and “The Ecstasy of Pupusas: Filled with Love.” The books are available on Amazon and Barnsandnoble.com.)

That’s the headline by the self-proclaimed “wordsmith” and fi ction writer Josh Resnek, the admitted phony publisher and slanderous reporter of the Leader Herald who writes the fake news about the mayor. The Philbin family, in their weekly show of disgrace, who would rather burn down the city, as they falsely paint it as racist week after week – Fred Capone must be proud. The peanut gallery that attended the recent City Council meetings at City Hall – some with criminal records – continue their whining, screaming and yelling accusations and insults for Resnek, as they stamp their little feet due to their candidate’s loss at the polls. How pathetic. It’s incredible to realize that anyone could testify in a deposition (Resnek’s nonstop admissions of lying and fabricating stories) without a single shred of evidence – and that he still believes what he writes is relevant. As long as Philbin’s money keeps rolling in – he’ll keep believing he is. Philbin’s little pity party – you can just imagine seeing them all sitting around the desk upstairs in an Everett Square offi ce wringing their hands as they listen to their loser leader making his scurrilous little plans. I wonder how they would feel if their family suff ered the same harassment by such reprobates – without an ounce of honesty, integrity or humanity. Like their ilk leadership – it’s all about the money and the mayor. Resnek has a professional track record of being fi red from just about every job he’s ever had due to claims of sexual harassment from Regan Communications, fabricating stories and accepting money from a Boston company that violated his former company’s ethical policy – a company he once had ownership in until he was shown the door. It’s Resnek’s MO: anything for a dollar. His master, Matt Philbin – fl ush with pot cash from his cannabis dispensary in Portland, Maine, and his apartment building on Revere Beach – just wants to destroy the mayor at any cost. In his sad story of Capone’s 2021 loss by 210 votes to the mayor, Resnek claims “Capone is supportive of the recall eff ort” but will not take a public stand. My guess, knowing the former councillor as I do, is that even he knows not to stand next to a dumpster fi re like Resnek and his band of nitwits. His other front-page trash piece has a developer making a contribution to the mayor’s campaign fund. In all the year’s reporting in Revere, Resnek never mentioned how Global Oil makes donations to the majority of the city councillors and mayors despite a grassroots protest years ago to get Global out of Revere. Nothing to see there, folks. Like Resnek writes in his fake articles, wait until next week when he drops some bombs with witness testimony against the mayor, which of course, never happened on two occasions leading up to the election. It’s Resnek’s modus operandi: Write the lies and hope the readers are dumb enough to believe them. Judging from the election’s outcome – they were not. Well, we’ve got some bombs to drop, too – on the gang Resnek hangs out with. I actually have notes, legitimate documents – not like the kind Resnek claimed to have (fake ones written after-the-fact which he attested to as he lied under oath, over and over again, in the recent June depositions). I’ve made my own discoveries: criminal records of these hacks Resnek and Philbin use to create havoc at the City Council meetings. And while we’re on the subject, let’s not forget Supt. of Schools Priya Tahiliani, who demanded a contract extension based on creating her own havoc within the school district. Tahiliani doesn’t have any answers for the students running around the high school with handguns and Tasers – not a word about that. But not to worry – we have the police reports. That’s the diff erence between the Fishwrap and The Advocate – we can actually back it up with proof. Sadly, all this out-of-touch school superintendent has brought to Everett have been claims of racism fueled by Resnek and Philbin’s lies – again, burning down the city to rule over the ashes.

Look around. Why are so many families – people of color – have been coming from Boston and beyond to Everett for decades? But that’s not what this superintendent cares about. It’s all about her career and where she goes from here after her photo op with the bullhorn at City Hall. How much does she care about Everett students? She let the students walk out of class and march to City Hall from Glendale Square holding signs demanding that all the councillors and mayor resign – based on what? A city councillor who had already resigned over hateful emails and texts – some of which were shared by their favorite City Clerk, Sergio Cornelio, the former city councillor’s best friend. Nothing to see here, folks. And the security cameras in the administration’s Vine Street office that she claimed were meant for her – which she used to make a claim for a federal probe by citing racism, discrimination and retaliation to the U.S. Attorney’s office – the claim has gone nowhere – except in the pages of the lyin’ Leader Herald. Nothing but “BS,” as Resnek answered under oath to the attorney in his many depositions, describing all his stories. The cameras in her office were set up many years ago to catch someone using the computer without permission – and were disconnected the day after they were set up – many years ago. It’s all on record, as the supt. knows. But why would the truth ever get in the way of the mission? It’s all about their goal: Destroy the mayor and take over Everett. What a group!

The move will strongly impact over 100,000 rides daily, and MBTA offi cials encouraged several alternative travel options for Orange Line riders. • Enhanced Commuter Rail options: Orange Line riders who must commute downtown are strongly encouraged to use the Commuter Rail as an alternative as the MBTA is making a series of changes in service to accommodate the change in travel patterns: All Zone 1A, 1, and 2 fares can be paid simply by showing a CharlieCard or CharlieTickets on all Commuter Rail lines. Since many Orange Line riders drive to or transfer between buses and the Orange Line, the MBTA is making it easy to access the Commuter Rail before riders get to the Orange Line by allowing all riders to utilize Commuter Rail stations in Zones 1A, 1, and 2 by showing their CharlieCard or CharlieTicket to a conductor. Haverhill Line Commuter Rail trains stop at Oak Grove, Malden Center and North Station. During these 30 days, riders can show their CharlieCard or CharlieTicket to the conductor to access the Commuter Rail. According to the MBTA, “Haverhill Line trains will make additional stops at Oak Grove. Check back … for more information about this schedule coming soon.” Riders should review the latest Commuter Rail schedules.

Despite the many “plusses” cited by MBTA officials on Wednesday, the shutdown will still severely impact the mobility and day-to-day lives of those who travel the Orange Line daily. The city of Malden hosts no less than two major Orange Line stations: Oak Grove at the northerly end of the line and Malden Center. Malden Mayor Gary Christenson said on Wednesday that he and his staff are already working on a local response to this transportation situation. “I have already met with our team to see if we can do anything to help the situation which includes utilizing the commuter rail to off set the disruption,” Mayor Christenson said as part of a statement released Wednesday afternoon. (See separate story in this issue of The Advocate.) Mass. Governor Charlie Baker urged workers who have the ability to do so to “consider working from home” and likewise encouraged employers to adopt this option for workers and staff if possible. The major revitalization work to take place on the Orange Line during this 30-day shutdown will deliver a number of projects “over five years faster than originally planned,” officials said, and will result in “track replacement, upgraded signal systems, and station improvements.” The MBTA will also be able to accomplish required track maintenance associated with Federal Transit Association (FTA) safety improvement directives as quickly as possible. Major revitalization work will take place along the entirety of the Orange Line – from the northernmost Oak Grove Station in Malden to the southern end of the line at Forest Hills – over 30 days, from August 20 through September 19. “This closure will allow departments across the MBTA to make substantial improvements across the Orange Line,” Mass. Secretary of Transportation Jamey Tesler said at Wednesday’s press conference. “Not only will improvements that are made benefi t Orange Line riders, but they will allow for an overall rehabilitated system that is safe and effi cient for employees and neighboring communities.” “We’ve listened to our riders, and we hear them loud and clear – bold action needs to happen in order to improve the MBTA at the pace that riders deserve. This 30-day surge will allow the MBTA to accomplish major and expansive progress on a number of priorities at the same time,” said MBTA General Manager Steve Poftak. “Thirty days of 24-hour access to the Orange Line [will replace] over fi ve years of weekend diversions needed to address delays and slow zones.

The MBTA encourages employers with hybrid work policies to allow employees to work from home as much as possible. • Alternative shuttle bus service will be provided. Earlier today the MBTA Board of Directors approved an approximately $37 million contract for shuttle bus service to Yankee Line, Inc. Alternative shuttle bus service will also be provided by MBTA buses.

Joe McGonagle, along with his colleagues in the Massachusetts Legislature, passed An Act regulating sports wagering – authorizing and regulating sports betting in the Commonwealth. The legislation authorizes the Massachusetts Gaming Commission to grant in-person licenses at gaming establishments, including casinos, racetracks and simulcast facilities, as well as mobile licenses through mobile applications or digital platforms. This legislation will generate an estimated $60 million in annual tax revenue for Massachusetts, in addition to collecting up to $70 to $80 million in initial licensing fees, which must be renewed every fi ve years. The revenue collected will be distributed to municipalities, and for economic, workforce, education, and public health priorities. An Act regulating sports wagering now goes to Governor Charlie Baker for his signature or other actions. “I’m incredibly proud that today, and after years of Houseled eff orts to authorize legal sports wagering in Massachusetts, the Legislature has acted to bring the immense economic benefi ts of a legal sports betting industry to the Commonwealth,” said House Speaker Ronald J. Mariano (D-Quincy). “Legalizing wagers on both professional and collegiate sports will create jobs and bring tens of millions of dollars in annual tax revenue to Massachusetts. I want to thank Chairs Michlewitz and Parisella, all the conferees and my colleagues in the House, as well as our partners in the Senate for recognizing the incredible economic opportunity that legalized sports betting presents.” An Act regulating sports wagering includes a 15 percent tax on in-person wagering er nearby states. Dozens of jobs will be created through this, especially here in Everett. This legislation was very carefully thought out and I’m so proud to have passed it this session and grateful to my colleagues, especially Speaker Mariano, Chair Michlewitz and Chair Parisella for their hard work. I look forward to seeing it in action.” Law Offices of JOSEPH D. CATALDO, P.C. “ATTORNEYS AND COUNSELORS AT LAW” Joe McGonagle State Representative and a 20 percent tax on mobile wagering. The legislation creates the Workforce Investment Trust Fund & the Youth Development and Achievement Fund, which will receive 17.5 percent and 1 percent, respectively, of the revenue generated by the taxes and licensing fees. The rest of the funds will go to the existing Gaming Local Aid Fund (27.5 percent), the Public Health Trust Fund (9 percent) and the General Fund (45 percent.) • The funds in the Workforce Investment Trust Fund will be used to develop and strengthen workforce opportunities for low-income communities and vulnerable youths and young adults, including to promote stable employment and wage growth. • The funds in the Youth Development and Achievement Fund will provide fi nancial assistance to students enrolled in and pursuing a program of higher education, and for afterschool and out of school activities. “I am absolutely thrilled about this legislation fi nally being passed,” said McGonagle. “Massachusetts is a perfect setting for sports loving individuals to lay bets and fi - nally the people will be able to see some return on this, instead of losing revenue to othUMass Amherst Spring 2022 Grads A MHERST, Mass. – Approximately 7,000 students received bachelor’s degrees in over 100 majors at the University of Massachusetts Amherst’s Undergraduate Commencement on May 13, 2022, at the McGuirk Alumni Stadium.

Clark react to MBTA shutdown of Orange Line Assistant House speaker calls it ‘outrageous’; Mayor said he and staff will address impact on Malden residents By Steve Freker D espite the forthcoming positive results cited by MBTA officials, there is no avoiding the severe impact the 30-day Orange Line shutdown will have on the tens of thousands of local residents who will be affected by the move in their day-today lives. Malden hosts two major Orange Line stations, Oak Grove and Malden Center, which originate and end thousands of trips per day for commuters. The shutdown will also have an impact on college students and others who use the Orange Line to get to and from classes. On Wednesday, both local and federal officials reacted to the dramatic announcement, with Malden Mayor Gary Christenson saying he and his staff were already working on a response to the shutdown that would mitigate the impact to local residents, if at all possible. U.S. Rep. Katherine Clark (D-5th District), who represents Malden and many other communities affected by the shutdown, called the planned move “outrageous” due to the impact it would have on the over 100,000 Orange Line riders who make use of the line daily. “It is outrageous that years of underinvestment have left the MBTA with this decision of last resort just to ensure basic safety for riders,” Rep. Clark said. “This service disruption will upend the lives of those who have already been hit hardest by the pandemic and its economic fallout,” Rep. Clark added. Mayor Christenson, in a statement immediately after Wednesday’s press conference by MBTA officials and Governor Charlie Baker, said he and his staff were already working on addressing the major announcement and subsequent local transportation disruption. “This shutdown will without a doubt negatively impact our community especially our residents who depend on the Orange Line to get to and from work and for our students returning to school,” Mayor Christenson said. “I have already met with our team to see if we can do anything to help the situation which includes utilizing the commuter rail to offset the disruption.” Gary Christenson Mayor “This announcement also highlights our repeated stance over the years that the MBTA needs to do a better job of maintaining what they have rather than funding new projects especially where it’s not cost neutral,” Mayor Christenson added. “In the meantime, we will continue to work with the MBTA on ways to minimize the impact to our community,” the mayor said. Mayor Christenson noted that there were some alternative travel options for local and area Orange Line riders already outlined at Wednesday’s press conference. “During [Wednesday’s] press conference, it was announced that several steps will be taken to ensure that existing riders will still be able to reach their normal commuting destinations by way of alternate substitute transportation including the use of the Commuter Rail as well as shuttle busses,” Mayor Christenson said. (See separate story in this issue.) Additionally, Mayor Christenson said he and his staff are “actively working with representatives of the MBTA to ensure this Commuter Rail service runs smoothly and will be pushing for more frequent rides than its current schedule.” With respect to shuttle busses, the mayor added that the MBTA is still in the process of finalizing those plans and said, “We will share those updates as soon as they are made available.” Assistant Speaker Clark echoed the mayor’s sentiments regarding alternative transportation options. “There needs to be a clear, comprehensive plan for the tens of thousands of people who rely on the Orange Line every single day and significant investment in our public transit system to finally Katherine Clark U.S. Representative take it into the 21st century,” Assistant Speaker Clark said. Malden is home to no less than two of the busiest Orange Line stations, the last two on the northern end of the line: Malden Center Station in Malden Square and Oak Grove Station on the Malden-Melrose city line.

National Night Out is an initiative where communities throughout the United States are encouraged to participate every first Tuesday in August. The goal is to bring neighbors and local law enforcement together to enhance positive community relations. The EPD began the evening celebrations by gathering residents at four meet locations around the city. The designated locations were Wehner Park, Gramstorff Park, City Hall and the Hancock Street Fire Station – where a police officer would be waiting to greet them. Residents and the officer would walk through the City to Glendale Park as a demonstration to show that the citizens of Everett and law enforcement are in control of the streets. At Glendale Park, the EPD had plenty of activities and demonstrations for kids and families. Residents were able to meet and speak to members of many different law enforcement agencies like the EPD, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) and the Massachusetts National Guard. Kids also got to meet Chase, the police dog from PAW Patrol. Residents were also treated to police K-9 demonstrations from EPD and Massachusetts State Police officers. It was a fun and informative demonstration for residents to learn how the dogs are trained and disciplined to follow commands and search for evidence and explosives. Another highlight of the event was a performance by Lil Phunk, the junior dance team of the Phunk Phenomenon Dance School, which is based right here in Everett.

When it comes to baseball, however, nothing slows down in the summer. Just the opposite: It all ramps up for baseball players. Why do you think they call them the “Boys of Summer” anyway? Just the other night a group of former longtime Malden residents and ex-local high school stars strutted their stuff in the Commonwealth Amateur Baseball League (CABL) Annual AllStar Game. For the past six years, the Powers Brothers, Manny and Nick have run the Malden Marlins franchise in the CABL, and just like their high school days, are some of the best players in the league still, as they approach their 30s. Manny Powers, a 2012 Malden Catholic grad and Nick Powers, a 2013 Malden High graduate, were named to their 5th consecutive CABL All-Star Team and were joined by three of their Marlins teammates, including two other former Malden residents, Ricky Mendez (Malden High 2013) and Connor Mulcahy (Malden Catholic 2012). The league was split in half for the purposes of the All-Star Game and the team the Malden Marlins were on won the game, 3-0, led by the hitting of Manny Powers, Mendez and Mulcahy. Nick Powers hurled a scoreless seventh for the save. **** Malden High assistant coach Mike DiCato named Pitcher of the Month in Boston Men’s Baseball League Malden High School assistant baseball coach Mike DiCato is the top pitcher in the Boston Men’s Baseball League (BMBL) 28-Plus Division and was recently named Pitcher of the Month for June for recording three impressive wins for his team, the Boston Dodgers.

He is 5-2 on the mound for the Dodgers with six complete games and is the league leader in wins (5), innings pitched (48) and strikeouts (69). Perhaps his most impressive stat? Aside from the 69 strikeouts in 48 innings, DiCato has walked only SIX (6) batters! That’s 69-6 strikeouts to walks ratio! No lie: He might be leading the NATION in that category for men’s league baseball. **** Saugus standout Nathan Ing contributing to Champions Pub team success in North Shore League Recent Saugus High Class of 2022 graduate Nathan Ing has been one of the top baseball players in the Northeastern Conference (NEC) for the past three years, both on the mound and at the plate. Ing took a big step forward this summer when he joined the roster of the league-leading Champions Pub team out of Peabody in the prestigious North Shore League. The North Shore League is one of the leading men’s baseball leagues in the region. Ing has fit in nicely on a team full of experienced players like longtime legends Jon Cahill and Mike Giardi, mixed with newcomers like the Saugus All-Star. Ing is fourth in hitting on the Champions team at point in the season, at a .323 clip (9-for-28) with 9 RBIs in 11 games played. He has also scored three runs. The 6-2, 220 Ing, who was a key contributor to success of the Saugus Sachems the past three years, is headed for Bentley University in Waltham where Mike Popp has played in several statewide All-Star events this summer after shining for the Revere High baseball team this past spring, with more on the way. (Courtesy Photo) he intends to pursue his academic and baseball career. **** Busy Summer for Everett High GBL AllStar Marshall and Revere High GBL AllStar Popp It’s been a busy and successful summer for some local Greater Boston League (GBL) high school All-Stars. Revere High Class of 2023 outfielder Mike Popp has already participated in the Mass. Baseball Coaches Association (MBCA) Junior Select State AllStar Game as well as the Bay State Games METRO Team. Popp plays for the Giants Elite travel team out of The Dugout in Lynn and before the summer end is planning on participating in The Lynn Invitational Showcase Tournament August 10-12. Also in the works is a trip to Florida to take part in a National JUCO Showcase event in Ocala, Fl. in mid-August.

Can you do a similar column for those of us who still use basic fl ip phones? My old 3G fl ip phone is about to become obsolete, so I’m looking for the cheapest possible replacement. I only need a simple cell phone (no data) for emergency calls when I’m away from home. Penny Pincher Dear Penny, For many seniors, like yourself, who only want a simple basic cell phone for emergency purposes and occasional calls, there are a number of super cheap plans available from small wireless providers you may have never heard of. Here are some of the best deals available right now. Cheapest Basic Plans For extremely light cell phone users, the cheapest wireless plan available is through US Mobile (USMobile. com), which has a “build your own plan” that starts at only $2 per month for 75 minutes of talk time. If you want text messaging capabilities, an extra $1.50/month will buy you 50 texts per month. US Mobile runs on Verizon’s and T-Mobile’s networks and gives you the option to bring your existing phone (if compatible or unlocked) or purchase a new device, while keeping your same phone number if you wish. If your fl ip phone is becoming obsolete, as you mentioned in your question, you’ll need to buy a new device, which you can do through US Mobile if you choose their plan. They off er the “NUU F4L” fl ip phone for $39 for new customers. Or you can purchase an unlocked phone through retail stores like Walmart or Best Buy, or online. One of the best value fl ip phones right now is the (unlocked) “Alcatel GO FLIP 4044 4G LTE,” available at Amazon.com for $80. Some other super cheap wireless plans worth a look are Ultra Mobile’s “PayGo” plan (UltraMobile.com/PayGo), which provides 100 talk minutes, 100 texts for only $3 per month. And Tello’s (Tello. com) “build your own plan” that starts at $5 per month for 100 talk minutes and unlimited texting. Both Ultra Mobile PayGo and Tello also run on T-Mobile’s network and will let you use your existing phone (if compatible or unlocked) or buy a new one. Senior Targeted Providers In addition to these super cheap plans, there are several other wireless companies that cater to older customers and off er low-cost basic plans and simple fl ip phones. One of the least expensive is through TracFone (Tracfone. com), which off ers a 60-minute talk, text and web plan for $20 that lasts for 90 days. That averages out to $6.66 per month. Three other providers that are popular among seniors are Snapfon (Snapfon.com), which off ers a 100 minutes and unlimited texting plan for $10. Consumer Cellular (ConsumerCellular.com), which provides an unlimited talk plan or $15 per month. They also give 5 percent discounts to AARP members. And Lively (Lively.com), maker of the popular Jitterbug Flip2 senior-friendly fl ip phone. Their cheapest monthly plan is 300 minutes of talk and text for $15. Subsidized Plans You also need to know that if you’re on a government program such as Medicaid, Supplemental Security Income or food stamps/SNAP. Or, if your annual household income is at or below 135 percent of the Federal Poverty Guidelines – $18,347 for one person, or $24,719 for two – you might also qualify for free or subsidized wireless plans from various carriers via the federal Lifeline program.

Fraudulent QR codes are often placed on the back of parking meters, leading victims to assume that they can pay for parking through the QR code if they do not have change. Con artists can easily create a QR code for free online, which they then print on stickers and either cover up an actual QR code or place where it makes logical sense. After paying for the spot through the QR code, some victims return to fi nd their vehicle has been towed or received a parking ticket for nonpayment, multiplying the amount of money lost. Cryptocurrency wallets and romance scams. The rise of cryptocurrencies has altered traditional thinking about investments, and the confusion surrounding these transactions makes it a ripe ground for scammers to take their toll. The trading of cryptocurrencies is conducted online, and the easiest way for both legitimate and fraudulent traders to direct investors to their digital wallets is through a QR code. Recently, BBB has become aware of scammers who spend months of their time building a romantic relationship with their victim, which ultimately results in them asking for fi nancial assistance through a cryptocurrency exchange or “advising” the victim on cryptocurrency investment.

Many victims lose thousands of dollars before they discover they are being scammed. Phishing scams. The design of QR codes makes it impossible for the user to know where the code will direct them after scanning, allowing scammers to send victims to phishing websites or downloads that will infect devices with malware. After scanning a code found in an email, text or flyer, some victims are directed to a website that requests personal information that can lead to identity theft, compromised passwords for online accounts or downloads that track the user’s activity on the device. Many phishing attempts begin with notification of “suspicious activity” on one of their online accounts and include a link or QR code for the user to verify their identity. In reality, the information provided is going to a scammer, which they then use for other purposes. Utility and government impostors. Many consumers report they are contacted by their utility company, the Social Security Administration or the IRS regarding an outstanding debt they must immediately pay in full. The representative claims that failure to pay the unpaid bill will result in either arrest, additional fines or shutting off access to electricity, gas or water. According to the impostor, the regular payment portal for these services is currently offline, but the victim can submit payment through another portal which, conveniently, they can access by following a link or scanning a QR code. The payment portal the victim is directed to often mimics the real portal down to the finest detail, providing a false sense of security that it is legitimate. False sense of security. Reports to BBB and additional screenshots, emails and texts detail how scammers include a legitimate QR code for the company or entity they are claiming to represent to give victims a false sense of security. These QR codes route to the official website for the organization, leading victims in receipt of these communications to more likely believe that the scammer is a legitimate representative. Other codes will direct the victim to an “employee profile” that includes official logos, badge numbers, professional headshots and additional information designed to ease any fears the victim might have. Once the scammer is confident that they have convinced their target, the likelihood that the victim will provide whatever information or money is requested drastically increases. How to avoid QR scams Confirm QR code before scanning. If you receive a QR code from a friend via text or a message on social media from a workmate, be sure to confirm with that person that they meant to send you the code to verify they have not been hacked. Keep in mind what you know about BUSINESS | SEE PAGE 23 CITY OF EVERETT - LEGAL NOTICE - Masshealth And Your Home R egardless of the value of your home, so long as your spouse is living in your home, it will not be considered a countable asset even if you were to go into a nursing home and qualify for MassHealth benefits. Furthermore, so long as your spouse is living in your home, MassHealth Estate Recovery will not be able to file a lien against it. If your home is held jointly, title should be transferred as quickly as possible to the healthy spouse who is still living home. If not, if the healthy spouse were to suddenly die first, title would vest 100% in the spouse who is living in the nursing home on MassHealth. The Estate Recovery Unit would then be able to recover against the equity in the home as the home would be part of the nursing home spouse’s probate estate. The transfer can be made either prior to or after admission into a nursing home. Transfers between spouses are never considered disqualifying transfers subject to the five-year look-back period. Once the transfer of the home takes place and the nursing home spouse is approved for MassHealth benefits, the spouse still living at home should consider, as one option, transferring the home to an irrevocable Trust in order to protect the equity in the home for the benefit of children. The five-year look-back period will commence once title has been transferred to the Trust. Although each family’s circumstances are different, and what might be good for one family might not be good for another, married couples and single individuals need to consider transferring the home to such an irrevocable Trust long before the need for a nursing home arises.One big advantage is the avoidance of probate. The home will pass to your intended beneficiaries pursuant to the terms of the Trust. The home can be sold at any time even after you place it into an irrevocable Trust. Since the Trust is structured as a grantor-type trust, the IRS Section 121 capital gain exclusion will still be retained. For a married couple, the capital gain exclusion on the sale of the home is $500,000. For a single person, the exclusion is $250,000. If rental property is placed into the Trust, the net rental income or loss is passed through onto the married couple’s or single person’s Form 1040. Consequently, the much higher ordinary income tax rates and capital gains tax rates associated with Trusts are avoided. Joseph D.

How often do you talk to this person, and does it make sense they would come to you with this opportunity? Trust in your intuition and avoid scanning any QR code until you know they sent it on purpose. Do not open links from strangers. If you receive an unsolicited message from a stranger that includes a QR code, BBB strongly recommends against scanning it. If the message promises exciting gifts or investment opportunities under the condition you “act now,” be even more cautious. Scammers use this type of language consistently and rely on their targets to make immediate decisions before taking the time to verify its authenticity. Be wary of short links. Suppose a shortened URL appears when hovering your camera over a QR code. In that case, there is no way of knowing where it will direct you once the link is followed. Make sure you are confident that the QR code is legitimate before following short links, as it might send you to a malicious website. Once on the website, look at the URL and verify that the domain and subdomain make sense for the organization that supposedly operates it. Scammers often switch around the domain and subdomains for URLs or slightly misspell one word to make websites appear legitimate. Check for tampering. Some scammers attempt to mislead consumers by altering legitimate business ads or placing stickers on the QR code. Keep an eye out for signs of tampering and, if discovered, have the business check that the posted QR code is genuine. Most businesses permanently install a scannable QR code in their establishment using laminate or placing it behind glass. They will often include the business’s logo in the code itself, often in the middle. To learn more about protecting your information online, read the BBB’s tips on data privacy and cyber security.
