Three jailed for stealing total of £568,000 from bank customers – Credit Connect

Three men from London have been sentenced to a combined 10 years and four months after stealing a combined £568,000 from victims by fraudulently posing as bank customers and gaining access to their accounts. The sentencing follows investigation and arrest by a specialist banking industry-sponsored police unit, the Dedicated Card and Payment Crime Unit (DCPCU). Between September 2021 and January 2025, Tai Buchanan, Wayne Field and Dashem Tesfamichael worked together to commit the fraud after obtaining stolen customer banking information online. Tai Buchanan, the son of Wayne Field, would recruit people to go into bank branches and impersonate genuine customers by using the obtained stolen information. The recruited accomplices would then attempt to gain access to customer accounts and withdraw cash directly if successful. Simultaneously, Field and Tesfamichael used stolen information to impersonate genuine account holders over the phone to gain access to their accounts. From there, they would steal money from the victims’ accounts. Field, Buchanan and Tesfamichael also used the stolen information to upload victims’ cards onto mobile phones in their control.

The second classical games of the semifinals followed a familiar script in Goa.

The first result arrived from the all-Uzbek clash between Javokhir Sindarov and Nodirbek Yakubboev. Their game featured subtle opening nuances before resolving into a level endgame on move 31. For two players who know each other exceptionally well and entered a line offering limited winning chances, the early handshake felt natural.

LinkedIn Message Leads To Advocate-Pharma Pursuit Of Expanded Access

A conversation with Raza Bokhari, MD, executive chairman and CEO, Medicus Pharma, and Meredith Weiss, executive director, Gorlin Syndrome Association When the little red notification adorns your LinkedIn inbox, there’s no telling what kind of message awaits you. Many of us are familiar with dubious connection requests, overly flattering pitches to become part of some “who’s who” list, or college recruiters telling us we’re the perfect candidate for an MBA. But for Raza Bokhari, MD, of Medicus Pharma, one simple message from a diligent and well-researched patient advocate launched a partnership that could lead to previously unattainable treatment for ultra-rare disease patients. In this Q&A, Raza and Gorlin Syndrome Association Executive Director Meredith Weiss describe how the two have begun a fledgling partnership to match Medicus’ SKINJECT noninvasive treatment for basal cell carcinoma with GSA’s patient community, hopefully by way of the FDA’s expanded access, or compassionate use, designation and Commissioner’s National Priority Voucher program.

Fake CEO Claim on LinkedIn Triggers Debate on Digital Misinformation – Deccan Chronicle

In a bizarre case highlighting the pitfalls of unverified online information, a Pune-based man falsely listed himself as the CEO of Anysphere, the US-based AI company behind the $29-billion coding assistant Cursor, and managed to mislead not just LinkedIn users but even reputable financial database PitchBook. The individual, Ashish Bagade, described himself on LinkedIn as the "Co-CEO" or "CEO" of Anysphere, despite having no association with the San Francisco startup. His page went unnoticed until venture capitalist Zach DeWitt spotted the discrepancy and posted about it on X (formerly Twitter), sharing a screenshot of Bagade’s profile. Anysphere was founded in 2022 by Michael Truell and his MIT batchmates. Truell is the company’s actual—and only—chief executive officer. The startup has gained global attention for its AI coding assistant Cursor, which recently hit a valuation of $29 billion. While LinkedIn does not verify job titles or company roles, Bagade’s false claim raised eyebrows when it appeared in PitchBook, a widely respected financial data and company intelligence platform used by investors worldwide. This unexpected inclusion triggered concerns about how misleading online information can seep into trusted databases. The incident quickly went viral, sparking a debate on digital honesty and the ease with which
