4- PORT PERRY STAR - Tuesday, August 1, 1995 "Scugog's Community Newspaper of Choice : Woman shocked as 'hacker' runs up credit card charges By Kelly Lown Port Perry Star Carol Edgar, of Port Perry, was shocked to recieve a phone call asking for confirmation of a $7,500 purchase she never made on her VISA card. A company called Mrs. Edgar last week to approve a $7,461.85 bill for com- puter equipment to be sent to an address in Westfield, New Jersey. According to Mrs. Edgar a computer hacker had somehow broken through the password on her computer, hooked up with America Online, found her VISA account number and ordered the equip- ment with her card. After cancelling the order she called the Canadian Imperial Bank of Com- merce and found that a change of ad- dress for her VISA card had been mailed to them in her name changing her ad- dress to a home on Arlington Road 1n New Jersey. Mrs. Edgar, shocked that someone could break the password, which 1s not an obvious one, has since destroyed her creditcard. Authorities, both in New Jersey and Durham are looking into the case of com- puter fraud. Community hall finally opens From Page 1 of the tax levy. The hall itself is located at the south-east corner of the existing building, with a link to the existing are- na. , The hall features a 99' by 58' floor space divisible into one large and one smaller area. It is an air- conditioned facility, com- plete with a large kitchen area, complete sound sys- tem, bar facilities and a coat check room. There are 100 tables and 750 chairs included in the ren- tal fees. The Scugog Centre Ad- visory Board, introduced earlier this year, is a sub- committee aimed at as- sisting with the capital costs of the centre. In addi- tion, this group focuses on securing funds to compli- ment the hall's furnish- ings, as well as looking to the future development of the centre.

Call the Port Perry Star & Weekend Star - (905) 985-7383 ot Cartwright, Nestleton ball leagues at odds From Page 1 etfort to find a workable solution to their problems. A compromise was reached, but Nestleton feels Cartwright has not lived up to its share of an agreement, while Cart- wright denies it backed outon any agreement. According to Mrs Boc- caccio the Nestleton League was to make up- grades to the Blackstock Fairgrounds diamond, while Cartwright was to improve a diamond on the public school grounds in Blackstock. She says Nestleton ful- filled its part of the agree- ment and had the field ready for Bantam aged players by the beginning of the season, but the field at the school is still not in playing shape for older players. "It is not acceptable for Peewee aged players and up. It is only suitable for Mosquito age," she said. Mrs. Boccaccio said the agreement was to see the field cut back to 90 feet to allow for Bantam play and says she has measured the field and itis only cut back to 70 feet. Rik Davie, a member of the ' Nestleton Hardball League's steering commit- tee, who was present at the meeting with the may- or and Cartwright Ball president Dale Newman agrees with Mrs. Boccac- cio. What sparked interest in Mr. Davie was an arti- cle, in the Port Perry Star, that he read as saying is ready for all levels of play. He says that is not the case. Mr. Davie said the ver- bal agreement at the meeting was that Cart- wright would enlarge the diamond for Bantam-aged play as sand permitted. The township agreed to supply the sand, he said. "If there was not enough sand we would have lived with that or went from there ourselves, but the township assured us the sand was available," Mr. Davie said. Cartwright's president, however, says that was not the agreement at all. According to Mr. New- man his league agreed to upgrade the field but did not agree to cut it back to any particularlevel. . He said he believes the diamond is cut for a 75- foot base path right now and any further expan- sion would cut into the other diamonds on the school grounds, making them unfit for play. He said Cartwright Ball League used the dirt al- lowed in their budget and any further dirt was to be looked after by Nestleton Hardball League. Mr. Davie said his league needs the use of the diamond at the school to be able to finish the sea- son. He said if the league has to it will cut the re- maining sod. Mayor Hall, who along with Councillor Pearce were reluctant to enter the dispute at the time, said the outcome of the meeting was that the dia- mond was to be made bigger and permission was obtained from the Durham Board of Educa- tion. Mayor Hall does not re- member it being the re- sponsibility of any partic- ular group. "Whoever was going to use it was toenlargeit," he said. The township did agreed to provide the sand and that offer still stands, according to the mayor. "As long as we have sand, they can have it," he said. } Graduate | Tom Hope Tom Hope graduated on June 2, 1995, from Trent University, Peterborough, Ont. with a B.Sc.H. in Psychology.
