Good afternoon!

My name is Emilia Paluszek and I'm writing from ETNT Health to

What are some places that you can catch COVID-19 after
reopening? (Pools, bars, etc)

We'd run your quote and your name and link back to your

We believe that it will improve the relationship between doctors

Name: Shiraz jagati Cointelegraph

Category: High Tech

Email: query-awrg@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: Cointelegraph

Deadline: 1:00 PM EST - 15 June

Query:

Hey HARO Family,

I am a Cointelegraph journo currently working on a story
regarding a new sim-swap scandal that happened recently wherein
a 20-year old California boy was charged for his role in dozens
of SIM-swap attacks, including an attempt to extort a physician
out of 100 Bitcoin. It seems as though these incidents are on
the rise and thus I was looking to get some insights in regard
to the following questions:

(i) Sim Swap related crypto thefts have been increasing at a
rapid rate over the past 24 months or so. Could you please
comment on why this has been the case and why more and more
hackers are using this avenue to facilitate their nefarious
deeds?

(ii) What is it about sim-swaps that attracts hackers? Is the
method relatively easier when compared to other crypto stealing
strategies?

(iii) Does this increase in sim swapping related crypto attacks
suggest that the monetary worth of digital currencies has
increased in the eyes of the masses?

(iv) Please feel free to add any more details you may see fit in
relation to this case. Looking forward to hearing from y'all

Regards

Requirements:

Comments should ideally come from crypto security experts who
have a good knowledge of sim-swap attacks (i.e. how they work)

Hi, My name is Sheldon Chi. I am responsible for coordinating
stories for the 1Mby1M blog [1mby1m.com]]. The Entrepreneur
Journeys (EJ) series is our flagship series and we're looking
for interesting companies with at least $5 million in annual
revenue to feature in lengthy feature stories. We are interested
in interviewing the entrepreneur who can and is willing to
discuss, at length, the nuances of the strategy and process of
company building, spanning topics such as bootstrapping,
financing, positioning, customer acquisition, channels, team
building, etc. To pitch, please provide revenue level, industry
(Our interests: E-Commerce, Cloud Computing, SaaS, Mobile,
Social, Big Data, IoT, FinTech, Digital Media, Gaming,
Healthcare IT, Online Education, etc.) and focus of the story

the One Million by One Million global initiative, whose aim is
to help a million entrepreneurs reach $1 million in annual
revenue. We also use the EJ interviews as case studies to teach
other entrepreneurs how to navigate the entrepreneurial waters.
You get publicity, as well as a platform to share your lessons
from the trenches with a large number of aspiring and practicing
entrepreneurs. 1M/1M has syndication relationships with many
venues: HBR, Xconomy, SmallBizTrends, EconomicTimes (India),
Women 2.0, Mashable, Huffington Post, Business Insider,
ReadWriteWeb, and several other sites. Articles we develop
through these interviews often get repackaged for the
syndication partners. The 1Mby1M blog was named by Forbes in the
Top 100 Blog for Entrepreneurs (http://onforb.es/1a6RkOs). The
procedure is to have a one-hour interview by phone or in-person
in Menlo Park, at our office. We will provide the dial-in for
phone interviews, and the address for the in-person interviews.

Requirements:

When you send in your pitch, please be sure to include the
revenue level, as it is the primary criterion we use to select
stories. Unlike other entrepreneurship media, we do not look for
financing as a criterion for determining story worthiness. Also,
if your revenue threshold is below the $5M level currently, you
are welcome to email me, and I will check if your story might
fit in any of our other series. To give you a flavor, here are
some of our other ongoing series: The 1M/1M Deal Radar: Revenue
between $1M and $5M, high growth rate. We typically do email
interviews for this series. Thought Leader Interviews: We also
have Thought Leader Series opportunities in Cloud Computing,
Cyber Security, Mobile and Social, Big Data, Outsourcing, Online
Education, e-commerce, Gaming, Online Fashion, HealthcareIT,
Internet Of Things, etc. These require, however, that the
company has a minimum of $5M in revenue.

For our Entrepreneur Journeys series, we're looking to interview

level, industry (Our interests: E-Commerce, Cloud Computing,
SaaS, Mobile, Social, Big Data, IoT, FinTech, Digital Media,

this number in the actual story. The Entrepreneur Journeys
