BigPond Account Scam

This is just a warning to people that are connected to BigPond. As of late, there has been a hoax email being sent to BigPond customers, stating that their bill payments were unable to be processes.

This e-mail has been sent to you by BigPond to inform you that we were unable to process your most recent payment of bill. This might be due to either of the following reasons.

BigPond will never send you an email stating that they weren’t able to process your payment, they will however send you a letter or phone you.

Due to this, to ensure that your service is not interrupted, we request you to confirm and update your billing information today by clicking here.

Now, a warning here as that link is not related to BigPond, if you do click it, it will go to a website http://dampnfuss.de. So please don’t submit any details, I do not hold any responsibility if you are connected to BigPond, and type in your details, this is just merely a warning.

In a previous post I wrote about how much the new connection manager (2.10.4) mutilates the connection on the computer. Well currently there is a simple fix that addresses the issue. I have tested it multiple times and seems to work fine on both, Windows Vista and Windows XP. Here is the following commands that (should) fix up the issue fine.

If anyone tries this, and it successfully works, please comment here and let me know.

Windows XP

start > run > cmd [press ok]

netsh winsock reset

netsh interface ip reset

restart PC and test

Windows Vista

start > start search > command [press enter]

netsh int ip reset

restart PC and test

The above commands should fix up the issue people are having with 2.10.4 on both Windows XP and Vista.
