| Dozens of Palestinian civil servants stormed a parliamentary session on Wednesday to demand long-overdue salaries, attacking Hamas lawmakers and forcing the parliament speaker to emerge from the building. No injuries were reported.There might be hope for the Palestinian Authority. It's reported that Palestinian Foreign Minister Mahmoud Zahar, who has been seeking to raise money for the financially strapped government, returned on the Gaza Strip on Wednesday which has a suitcase full of cash, officials said, possibly just as much as $20 million.This second attack for the parliament this week, along with the shooting death of your Hamas gunmen in the Gaza Strip, cast doubt on renewed efforts by leaders in the rival Fatah and Hamas parties medicines their increasingly deadly infighting.President Mahmoud Abbas of Fatah, who had been elected separately last year, and Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh of Hamas agreed late Tuesday to start out a weeklong series of meetings to try to reach an agreement over a proposal that implicitly recognizes the Jewish state. Both the men, joined by senior security commanders, continued their talks on Wednesday.In other developments: A Hamas militant was shot and killed Wednesday outside his home in the Gaza town of Khan Younis after Hamas gunmen shot a security alarm commander loyal to President Mahmoud Abbas within the town. Hamas accused the Preventive Security agency of shooting the militant, and then set the commander's home unstoppable. Preventive Security officials said the commander's mother and family were in the building.An Israeli army inquiry found that a Palestinian mine, not an Israeli army shell, was in charge of the killing of seven family on a Gaza beach last week. But Israel has a hard time selling this sort of events, reports CBS News Correspondent Robert Berger (audio) . Palestinians say it is a whitewash and that Israel is refusing to consider responsibility for a massacre they describe as state terrorism. UN Secretary General Kofi Annan also expressed doubts. He as well as the Palestinians say it's absurd that militants would plant a mine with a crowded Gaza beach.In Paris, Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert vowed Wednesday to "make every effort" to resume negotiations with all the Palestinian Authority, although he also insisted that attacks must stop first. Olmert, meeting with French President Jacques Chirac, also said previous accords and Israel's directly to existence must be recognized.The angry crowd of civil servants, that's demonstrating outside the parliament building, burst in to the hall and pelted Hamas lawmakers with water bottles, tissue boxes as well as other small items."We are hungry. We have been hungry," the protesters screamed. no previous page next 1/2 Jennifer Caughman, a college administrator from Ontario, Calif., doesn't take any chances with her privacy. About two years ago, a complete stranger bought her Ssn on a street corner in Los Angeles and used it to set up charge accounts in Caughman's name throughout L.A., ringing up nearly $10,000 in merchandise.She was the victim of what experts are calling the crime in the new millennium: Identity theft."There were two different people out there who were me," she says, "And I did not know what she was going to do next."In it, the thief eventually was caught, reports CBS News Correspondent Bernard Goldberg.

You can remove it, sometimes it can go into remission, but you never know if this might come back," she says.Because criminals find id theft easy and lucrative, there are estimates that half a million Americans will become victims next year alone. James Fishman, an attorney who represents identity fraud victims, tells Early Show Anchor Bryant Gumbel that identity theft is happening at all levels."It's organized, it's unorganized. It's individuals, it's groups," he explains. "It's become clearly the crime of the '90s."A tell-tale sign that you are a victim of id theft is if you start getting calls about bills you have not heard of, but many people don't know they are victims until well after it's happened.Monitor credit reports at least one time a year. If your wallet has been stolen, do it monthly. Guard your Social Security number. Many times, when you are asked for it, you aren't required to give it.Guard your bank card information. Tear up bank card offers. Shred credit card bills that you simply no longer need. Don't just throw them inside the garbage. Cut up your old credit card when you get a new one that replaces the existing one.Shred all financial documents, something that has identifier information like your Social Security number, date of birth, or an account number of any credit account you have.Fishman also feels it is too quickly to know for sure if it is safe to provide out your credit card number over the Internet.
