25. Activity 2.1 Answers Why is United States currency being changed? United States paper money is being changed to stay ahead of savvy counterfeiters. Will the old bills be recalled, demonetized or devalued? No. New bills and old bills will maintain their full face value. The United States has never devalued its paper money and will not do so now. What changes are being made to the United States paper money? On the $20, $50 and $10 denominations, the color-shifting ink on the number indicating the bill's denomination in the lower-right corner on the face of the bill has been enhanced to produce a more dramatic shift in color, from copper to green, when the bill is tilted. Previously, the color shifted from green to black. The new $5 bill, however, does not included color shifting ink in the bill's new design features. Why add color to United States paper money? Color makes it more burdensome for potential currency counterfeiters because it adds complexity to the bills, and it makes it easier to distinguish denominations. While consumers should not use color to verify the authenticity of their money, it does have a practical advantage, particularly for individuals with low vision, because different colors make it easier to tell denominations apart.

53. Activity 3.1 Case Study One quiet Monday in July 2004, at the height of the summer vacation season, a call center representative at a midsize U.S. financial institution answered a peculiar call. The customer on the line was suspicious of an e-mail she had received from the bank. The e-mail contained a link to a website where the customer was asked to enter her debit card number, card expiration date, PIN and e-mail address. But the message was full of typos and grammatical errors, and it didn't seem quite right for the bank to request that information. The call set off a confused chain reaction. The customer forwarded the e-mail to the call center representative, who forwarded it to the call center manager. The manager sent it to someone in the online banking department, who forwarded it to her upper management and to the corporate security department. Questions 1.Did the customer have the right to be curious? 2.What may have caused this situation? 3.How might this situation have been avoided? 4.How should this situation be handled? Who should be involved?
