HACKERS AND SCAMMERS

Dear Readers, I believe that this poem will grab your attention. Please take note of what is happening on social media today.

HACKERS AND SCAMMERS

Hackers and Scammers are rampant on social media.

They are trying their best to take over Literature.

First, they hacked the How to Write for Success Literary Forum.

And were removing me and the Ambassadors one by one.

*

I caught them in time and although I recovered the forum,

They hacked one of my accounts I had with Instagram,

And got my account suspended by posting something ridiculous.

I lost access to all other Facebook pages with that email address.

*

As my personal page and Author pages, I could no longer access.

I used a new email address to continue with my progress.

I now discovered my How to Write for Success Author page.

Is being used by a fake outdoor gear and clothing company.

*

My profile picture, and cover with my book is still appearing,

Along with my posts and pictures of outdoor gear and clothing.

I don’t know how they plan to move ahead with that fraud.

But I am leaving that matter in the hands of God.

*

I reported the matter to Facebook Security,

I have been assured that action will be taken shortly.

This poem is to warn friends to keep their profiles secure.

Maybe locking our profiles is the only cure.

NOW IS THE TIME TO PREPARE: POETRY ENLIGHTENMENT

Dear Readers.

I just published my 57th book. It's a Christian Poetry Book and I hope that you will read it. If you have Kindle Unlimited it is FREE to read.

NOW IS THE TIME TO PREPARE: POETRY ENLIGHTENMENT is a series of poetry compiled by Author Brenda Mohammed, author of 57 books, to enlighten readers on future events.
The world is in Chaos, and many feel we are in the end times.
The fact is, whether the world as we know it will end in a week, month, year, or fifty years from now, now is the time to prepare.
Now is the time to decide where we want to spend eternity.
In Matthew 24, Jesus Christ spoke about the signs to watch for. There will be a time of deception, a time of persecution, a time of tribulation, and a time of expectation.
Jesus said to expect these things, but it will not be the end, only the beginning of the end.
A time of deception, persecution, and tribulation, calls for a proper understanding of God’s Word to choose good over evil.
The poems written by the author are easy to read and understand.
The author hopes that readers will be blessed after reading this book.

ANYONE WITH A FATAL ILLNESS SHOULD NEVER GIVE UP

FIVE-STAR REVIEW FOR I AM CANCER FREE.

A book written by Brenda Mohammed.

Reviewed in the United States.

Verified Purchaser

This true story should be read by every person who has been diagnosed with or who has ever suffered from cancer. Their loved ones will also benefit from reading this autobiographical account.

The author has an impressive memory for details and gives an excellent account of everything that she went through during that trying period from her diagnosis to the successful treatment of the disease.

She narrates, in-depth, all her experiences during her treatment, including her personal feelings, her understandable fears, and even financial matters. Displaying an exceptionally lucid memory, she remembers every single person who supported her during that period and every single little detail including the hurricane that struck Miami after her second chemotherapy session and the inconveniences incurred about electricity in the house and gas for the car.

She also remembers every restaurant she ate in Miami and everyone who visited her. Her memory of every important date is extremely remarkable.
During all the upheavals, the author never lost her faith in God.

Her undaunting faith upheld her and comforted her during this dark period of her life. Her story clearly demonstrates that faith in God surmounts all obstacles.

Everyone with a dread disease or fatal illness should read this book.

It is on Amazon. CLICK HERE
The book makes easy reading and the style is almost conversational.

One gets the feeling that the author is speaking directly to the reader. It is an intensely personal narration and I recommend this book highly.
