Magaña & Rathi Income Tax Services

Family and Friends we will lay our beloved Rosa Magana Rathi to rest on Thursday, January 21, 2021 at 11:00 a.m. at the Ceres Memorial Park located at 1801 E. Whimore Ave. In Ceres, Ca. for a graveside service.
There are restrictions in place if you plan on attending. Everyone must wear a face mask and socially distance themselves. The funeral ceremony will begin at 1100 a.m. at the cemetery and will end there as well. Also due to the COVID 19 pandemic the family has decided not to meet for a celebration of life after the funeral out of an abundance of caution.
The family expresses their most heartfelt appreciation for everyones support during this difficult time and for all of the donations.

NOTE: There will not be any viewing or any chapel services. The ceremony will begin and end at the cemetery.

For any flower donations please have them delivered to the cemetery on January 21st before 11 AM.

The GoFund Me link for Rosa will close Friday January 15th, 2021 at 8:00 PM.

Thank you.

Magana Family

Tips to help people stay safe online

These days most people are spending more time at home and a lot more time online. Whether people are online for work, school, a virtual gathering or shopping, online security is more important than ever.

Everyone should be mindful of risks they may encounter when they share devices, shop online and interact on social media.
Taxpayers might find the online security overwhelming, but it doesn't have to be. Even those who aren't super tech-savvy can stay safe online.

Remember security is important.
No one should reveal too much information about themselves. People can keep data secure by only providing what is necessary. This reduces online exposure to scammers and criminals. For example, birthdays, addresses, age and especially Social Security numbers are some things that should not be shared freely. In fact, people should not routinely carry a Social Security card in their wallet or purse.

Use software with firewall and anti-virus protections.
People should make sure security software is always turned on and can automatically update. They should encrypt sensitive files stored on computers. Sensitive files include things like tax records, school transcripts and college applications. They should use strong, unique passwords for each account. They should also be sure all family members have comprehensive anti-virus protection for their devices, particularly on shared devices.

LEARN TO RECOGNIZE & AVOID SCAMS
Everyone should be on the lookout for scams. Thieves use phishing emails, threatening phone calls and texts to pose as IRS employees or other legitimate government or law enforcement agencies. People should remember to never click on links or download attachments from unknown or suspicious emails. If someone calls asking for personal information, people should not to give out such details.

PROTECT PERSONAL DATA
Adults should advise children and teens and other young users to shop at reputable online retailers. They should treat personal information like cash and shouldn’t leave it lying around.

KNOW THE RISK OF PUBLIC WI-FI
Connection to public Wi-Fi is convenient and often free, but it may not be safe. Hackers and cybercriminals can easily steal personal information from these networks. Always use a virtual private network when connecting to public Wi-Fi.
