Right now there is a wave with scamming ongoing in what I know in Scandinavia. But probably in the whole European or world.. trying to catch many Filipino people to get a loan..

There are many people already fooled and have lost salaries by believing this scam...

How they do... !

You register as via the scammer as a client to borrow money... They make out all the paperwork for you.. and they are phishing you on information and your ID with pictures etc

when the "registration" is done, the paper work and the loan is handled, then they want you to prove that you can pay the loan back by sending them money to different accounts in the Philippines.. as a proof that you can pay ..

This is not minor sums .. in Philippines peso's a between 125000php to 200000php or even more.. that's their way of knowing you can pay back..

Those money you will never see again.. and you will never get a loan..

When you have showed that you can pay back via doing this.. then the process is set up to transfer the loan to your account.. but then you suddenly need to pay tax. And that it is mandatory.. if you pay that tax .. well those money you won't see either.. and that amount is almost the same as what you already have paid first time.

Don't get fooled they are good .. but read what it says.. no bank can survive on 0.2% interest

Share this as much as you can .. with friends.. in groups.. everywhere...

AND they are in PRIVATE groups!!!!! For that you need an invite, so someone invited the scammer.. just think about that 😉

🔺 Uppdate 🔺 ❗❗❗❗❗❗❗❗❗

I have heard figures on about 10.000 people is scammed right now.. let's say the average amount they have paid is about 150000PHP.. that's 1.5Billion PHP...

🔺 Update 2 🔺 ❗❗❗❗

For the moment the site is down and the hosting company has listened to all complaints and concerns around the world, and I hope the Philippines Authorities have helped to.

The site we first notice is
brightliveslendingphils.com

But we have detected/found many other with the exactly same method to scam people on Thier savings, with different look and other languages...

Buy detaining/finding the source code for this type of site made it easier to find similar..

Scammers today are good, but messy and forget things sometimes... 😉😉🤣🤣

Like normal people 😍😍

I don't know the definition of chaos.. but I'm pretty sure I'm close.. moving this isn't fun, I overloaded a moving trailer yesterday, they can take about 450kg legally, but with tight packed boxes I was way over a Ton. One trip 150km with loading/unloading took 6 Hours.

After a very turbulent year, with a separation, moving to a to small apartment, trying to setup my Workbench for repairs etc. I finally found my place, and this time I'm the owner.
The final place ❤️❤️❤️

But this place had a lot of work to do before I could move in, lots of cleaning and painting, I got acces to this house, that for me have everything and a little more, based on the country side the first October this year, and this weekend I finally finished three rooms and a hallway.. still have some small and big jobs to do, but I'm at the stage that I can slowly move in, prio for me has been bedroom, my retro room and the kitchen.. from that i can do the rest of work without stressing.

I know lots of you have sent me things to service or repair.. when I'm finally setup it will be the first I attack before I do anything else..

Thanks in advance for your understanding..

Exiting what this can mean for the future, not at least for the retro computers, if they will be compatible with the old ones.

It opens the door to a new era of electric efficiency.

I haven't been very active at the latest. There are some private reasons behind that, that have taken way too much time from this.

But I hope the future here will be brighter and even give you all of my followers reasons to keep following me.

What is going to be new here is hopefully a YouTube channel, where I will try to do videos over things that I haven't found myself or what I have found is not of very good quality, both about repair techniques, but also how to use and get the most out of your old computer.

One thing I also have is a FTP that is not online public, that one contains about and almost 16 Tb of retro software, all from os to games and single files that you can need to get your old computer alive and function properly.

All behind this was more or less a need to move to a new location, and that will happen one more time, because this new place is temporary until I find "that place" but that might not happen within a year or maybe years.
But my workplace will hopefully be upp and fully functioning at the end of Mars. Moving furnitures and almost 200 moving boxes with only computer parts has been a struggle itself and also to a place that is much smaller then before.

I will also update where you can find me online and there will be new places to explore info about me and about your beloved computers.

Stay tuned and help me in your way to spread the word that my hobby and what I have collected will be in public for everyone.

Just playing with my A4000,, not bad for a 30year old computer to run in highcolour and 1920x1080 screenmode.

Recap Listor Amiga 500 Rev 3 5 6 och 8, korrekt utförda enligt Commodore Bulletien.

Det säljs recap kit på Tradera mm, men de är "fel" i den bemärkelsen att de inte följer bulletien!
När man ändå gör det gör "Rätt"

OBS! tänk på polvändningen av Kondensatorn! Ej Markerad.

Servad med nya kondensatorer på moderkort och i diskettstation, allt har varit isärplockat och rengjort både manuellt och i ultraljudstvätt. Har kört dator en hel del under installation av HDD men också olika testverktyg, och tycker att den känns sjukt stabil.

Innehållet på HDD 16Gb, WB 3.1.4, diverse program av olika slag för att förbättra funktioner i WorkBench, HDD har tre partitioner DH0:WorkBench DH1:Work DH2:Whdload, så som det bör se ut.

Whdload innehåller Games OCS ECS AGA CD-TV CD32. Demos ECS AGA. även en mapp med Forigien games samt NTSC, på Whdload ligger även en del Mags Dvs digitala tidningar med musik och nyheter och tips från tiden då det begav sig. Mappen Kickstarts under Devs på Workbench innehåller en imponerande samling av Kickstarts för Whdload.

Samtliga datorer kommer att läggas ut till försäljning och en av 1200 datorerna är hyffsat fylld med diverse godis.

Var försäljning kommer att ske vet jag inte än, det beslutet ligger på ägaren.

En vän från Österrike postade en video på Youtube, där han förklarar skillnaden mellan Macintosh SE och Macintosh SE FDHD.

Uppdateringen var möjlig efter att jag skänkt de tre chip (åtminstone ett av dem) som krävdes för att uppdateringen skulle lyckas. Två ROM Chip samt ett chip specifikt för HD diskdrive 1.44Mb.

Episode 18: Thanks to Johan from Sweden I got my hands on the ROM & SWIM Chips needed, to upgrade my SE to an SE FDHD. In addition I pulled an HD Floppy Driv...

Allt ni behöver veta om varför man ska "Recappa" sin äldre elektronik, att mäta en kondensator och få bra värden,
säger egentligen inget om "hur bra den är" för övrig elektronik.

Två bilder är upplagda istället för länken som var död. Dessa försvinner inte!!
