TWO WORLDS UNITED STUDENT EXCHANGE PROGRAMS,

For first time Two Worlds United exchange students, the face of Spain can be compared to that of an ornate clock, with noteworthy points on the perimeter, and Madrid—the heart of the movement—in the center, Starting at XII, you have Santander, with a history going back to the Cantabrians and a might that reflected the power of ancient Rome.

Moving east, there is San Sebastian at the edges of the Pyrenees, like a jewel couched in green velvet facing the wind-tossed Bay of Biscay. A blast for Two Worlds United Students. Then you go down to mountainous Pamplona, the pulse beat of Navarra, where each year, at the Feria de San Fermin, brave souls still expose themselves to the "running of the bulls." The hands sweep through the throbbing tourist sectors of the Costa Brava to burgeoning Barcelona, pride of Catalonia, which boasts the cathedral and room where Queen Isabella celebrated Columbus's triumphant return from the Americas.

Next comes the gaiety of Valencia with its fallas and the ever-present smell of citrus groves and roses. Granada and the fabulous Alhambra strike VI, probably one of the most rewarding points in the passage of your time abroad. There's the slow and easy sunlit Costa del Sol for lazing, golf, and aquatic sports—not to mention the continuous nighttime activities for which the area is famous. Then it's into Andalusia and sun-baked Seville with its Moorish antecedents, neighboring Cordoba standing in the shimmering heat, and up to lovely medieval Salamanca; to the rugged Atlantic fjords of Vigo, Pontevedra, and Arosa; to land's end, jewel-like La Coruna; and finally to the stately antique grace of Santiago, where so many pilgrimages have culminated.  Spain is a treasure for discover.  Although seems that it is already know for the world.  Spain is the 3 most visit country of the world and for the side of the country this means that it is an exceptional place to study and enjoy a program abroad.   Two Worlds United students may ask to their student counselor about the available programs in Spain.

Students who participate in exchange programs often gain command of a foreign language and expand their understanding of other cultures. For many Two Worlds United students, an exchange program provides their first experience with independent living. Two Worlds United Students who participate in exchange programs generally stay in dormitories or in the homes of host families while in the foreign country. Students who stay in homes have the added benefit of experiencing the day-to-day activities of a host family while pursuing their studies.

Tip

To see updated examples of popular phishing scams or to report a possible phishing scam, visit the Anti-Phishing Working Group Archive.

 

Phishing is a type of deception designed to steal your valuable personal data, such as credit card numbers, passwords, account data, or other information.

Con artists might send millions of fraudulent e-mail messages that appear to come from Web sites you trust, like your bank or credit card company, and request that you provide personal information.

 

What does a phishing scam look like?

As scam artists become more sophisticated, so do their phishing e-mail messages and pop-up windows.

They often include official-looking logos from real organizations and other identifying information taken directly from legitimate Web sites.

To make these e-mail messages look even more legitimate, the scam artists may place a link in them that appears to go to the legitimate Web site (1), but it actually takes you to a phony scam site (2) or possibly a pop-up window that looks exactly like the official site.

These copycat sites are also called "spoofed" Web sites. Once you're at one of these spoofed sites, you might unwittingly send personal information to the con artists.

How to tell if an e-mail message is fraudulent

Here are a few phrases to look for if you think an e-mail message is a phishing scam.

"Verify your account."

Businesses should not ask you to send passwords, login names, Social Security numbers, or other personal information through e-mail.

If you receive an e-mail from Microsoft asking you to update your credit card information, do not respond: this phishing scam. To learn more, read Fraudulent e-mail that requests credit card information.

"If you don't respond within 48 hours, your account will be closed."

These messages convey a sense of urgency so that you'll respond immediately without thinking. Phishing e-mail might even claim that your response is required because your account might have been compromised.

"Dear Valued Customer."

Phishing e-mail messages are usually sent out in bulk and often do not contain your first or last name.

"Click the link below to gain access to your account."

HTML-formatted messages can contain links or forms that you can fill out just as you'd fill out a form on a Web site.

The links that you are urged to click may contain all or part of a real company's name and are usually "masked," meaning that the link you see does not take you to that address but somewhere different, usually a phony Web site.

 

Use the latest products and services to help warn and protect you from online scams

•

Install the Microsoft Phishing Filter using Internet Explorer 7 or Windows Live Toolbar . Phishing Filter helps protect you from Web fraud and the risks of personal data theft by warning or blocking you from reported phishing Web sites. Learn more about how to get Phishing Filter .

•

Install up-to-date antivirus and antispyware software . Some phishing e-mail contains malicious or unwanted software that can track your activities or simply slow your computer. Try new antivirus and comprehensive computer health services like Windows Live OneCare. To help prevent spyware or other unwanted software, download Windows Defender

To learn more, read How to handle suspicious e-mail. If you believe you may have already provided personal or financial information in response to an e-mail message, read What to do if you've responded to a phishing scam.
