How to Stop Cyber Criminals from Getting Your Tax Refund
Last year more than 91 percent of American tax returns were filed online according to the IRS. As more consumers opt to file their taxes online, an increased amount of sensitive information is at risk.
Norton by Symantec, a leader in consumer security, identified a surge in online threats during tax season. In fact, last year, TurboTax temporarily suspended services due to a rise in fraudulent claims filed with stolen information, and 2016 has already kicked off with a slew of new tax season threats. In January, TaxSlayer notified thousands of customers of a potential data breach, and the IRS has also disclosed an attempted scam. Online criminals now have access to a vast amount of sensitive, personal information and Americans should understand how to keep their data safe.
This tax season, it’s critical that consumers are vigilant of scammers and stay educated on ways to protect themselves online.

About This Episode:
Prostate cancer is the second most common cancer in men. 1 in 7 will be diagnosed with this disease, but the odds increase to 1 in 5 if they are African American and 1 in 3 if they have a family history. Prostate cancer is also the second leading cause of cancer-related death among men, and there are often no symptoms.
Early detection for prostate cancer is key, which is why, for the seventh year, the National Football League has teamed up with the Urology Care Foundation—the official foundation of the American Urological Association—on the Know Your Stats About Prostate Cancer® campaign, an initiative to encourage men to know their prostate cancer risk and to talk to their doctor about whether prostate cancer testing is right for them. The campaign is led by some of our favorite football heroes, including Pro Football Hall of Famer and prostate cancer survivor, Michael Haynes.
On this episode of the Business, Life, and Coffee podcast, Urologist and Prostate Cancer Specialist, Dr. Scott Eggener will join Mike Haynes as they talk about the risks for prostate cancer and the importance of early detection. Michael’s story gives hope to those newly diagnosed or in treatment, and also reminds families to talk about their health history. Remember, one new case occurs every 2.4 minutes and a man dies from prostate cancer every 19.1 minutes. Don’t sit on the sidelines, join Haynes and Dr. Eggener as they team up to offer a winning game plan for prostate cancer and to save lives.
This interview is brought to you by the American Urological Association.
About Michael Haynes: Michael is a former National Football League cornerback who played for the New England Patriots and the Los Angeles Raiders. His professional football career began when he was selected in the 1976 NFL Draft by the New England Patriots. He was then elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1997. Haynes, a prostate cancer survivor, is the spokesperson for the Know Your Stats About Prostate Cancer® campaign and speaks on their behalf to educate and encourage men to be proactive about their prostate health.
About Scott Eggener: Associate Professor of Surgery and Co-Director of the Prostate Cancer Program at the University of Chicago Medical Center, Dr. Scott Eggener is an experienced robotic and open surgeon who specializes in the care of patients with prostate cancer. His research focuses on prostate cancer screening and treatment patterns, evaluating novel tools to assist patients in treatment decisions, and clinical trials for active surveillance and focal therapy. He is a leading prostate cancer spokesperson for the American Urological Association (AUA) and presents on prostate cancer matters around the world.

Can you count on Medicare or Medicaid to cover your long-term care costs? Without proper planning, individuals can be left with few options for managing long-term care expenses. You may have heard that an estimated 70 percent of Americans 65 and older are expected to need long-term care at some point in their lives.* A new study by Lincoln Financial Group found that only a shocking 22 percent think they’ll actually need it.**
Unless you’ve experienced a long-term care event for yourself or a loved one, you may not realize the impact it can have, both financially and emotionally. According to the “2014 Cost of Care Survey,” the average cost of a private room in a nursing home can be up to $97,611 a year. With such a large price tag for long-term care, consumers should be asking, “What are my choices?” Lincoln’s study found both consumers and financial advisors underestimated the actual cost of long-term care, and consumers weren’t sure they would need it at all.
About National Bladder Health Month:
November is National Bladder Health Month, and the Urology Care Foundation is connecting, educating and empowering individuals across the country to get the facts about bladder health conditions such as Overactive Bladder and take an active role in managing their bladder health.
Many people, especially women are often too embarrassed to talk about their OAB symptoms, or assume there are no good treatment options. They think the occasional leakage that occurs from coughing or sneezing or that strong “gotta go” feeling is a normal result of having children or getting older and wait on average, nearly two years before mentioning anything to their health care provider. If they only knew, there are many treatment options available to relieve these symptoms, including simple behavior modifications, oral medical treatments, diet and exercise.
About Liver Cancer Awareness Month:
Liver cancer may be talked about less than other cancer types, but it is one of the deadliest cancers in the world, claiming the lives of more than 65 Americans each day, or nearly 25,000 Americans per year. This number has been slowly but steadily rising for several decades, despite progress in cancer research and the development of new treatments.
The global impact is even greater, with liver cancer accounting for more than 600,000 deaths each year. Because symptoms typically do not appear early on, diagnosis is often not made until patients have late-stage disease that is more difficult to treat.
While people tend to think pink during October, it’s important that they also see green – the color of liver cancer awareness. Several common culprits – including the hepatitis B and C virus, morbid obesity and diabetes, and alcoholic cirrhosis – are directly linked to liver cancer. As these conditions reach near epidemic proportions, the incidence of liver cancer may creep up further. Currently, more than 700,000 people are diagnosed with liver cancer throughout the world every year.
It’s important that people realize the need for improved education about liver cancer risk factors, and that they discuss with their doctors the importance of regular screenings to increase the chances of catching the disease in its early stages. Diagnosing liver cancer early is key, as a patient’s chance of survival nearly doubles if the disease is caught early.
