My god, do fools actually fall for this crap? :-[

disneyland lady · January 24, 2009, 07:16:05 AM

Recently I have been getting these telling me that I won the "Microsoft" Lottery and they will be sending me a "cheque" after they confirm my information. Imagine, Microsoft <b>giving away </b> money. Anyone who falls for THAT one deserves to be phished.

Wait til I tell my Nigerian finance!

Squid · January 24, 2009, 08:38:00 AM

Wow, Microsoft is giving cash away while putting 5,000 people out of work due to this awful economy? That's a very generous thing to do for the public and a very nasty thing to do to workers.

To those propagating this sort of email crap: :oo

FreecellFanny · January 25, 2009, 03:57:31 AM

Even with the poor grammar, spelling, and wording they still manage to fool some of the unwashed masses. :oo

This is the worst case of global worming that I have ever seen but we already knew you were a winner.

Squid · January 26, 2009, 11:38:22 AM

Too funny. I am now receiving emails telling me I need to contact them about collecting my prize. Then they sign the email with a name that is exactly my last name. I think these people need to get a job.

Everytime I get one of these I write them back telling them to learn proper English. Of course, I'm not very polite about it. :)))

disneyland lady · January 26, 2009, 02:51:12 PM

In my younger days I used to repond to them with the phone number of the Secret Service and tell them to email me back at my @interpol.com addy. But I figure it just lets them know you have a sellable email address. I just wish someone would invent an email that Tasers the person who gets it. Just be careful with any email you get from @tasermebro.com

I get like 20 of those a day. Hmmmmmmm..... I wonder if my kids have been playing on my computer. :P

FreecellFanny · January 27, 2009, 02:38:08 AM

What I wish someone would invent is an email program that once you block an address or mark something as spam that it makes it bounce back to the original sender.

Just deleting an email or having it sent to the spam folder accomplishes nothing. It needs to bounce back and therefore jam up the inbox of the spammer. >:D

Geeze, even Yahoo now asks you if you're sure you want to empty the contents of your spam folder. How annoying is that??? !@#$

disneyland lady · January 27, 2009, 06:35:57 AM

One of the reasons I will go to Hell is because I once went to a "balding and hating it" website and filled in my ex's info. It gave me such pleasure to know the type of spam he is probably stilll getting 5 yrs later. I have cut down on my spam by just using one special email address when filling out anything on a website. But I am sure that my grandson or the rude lady at the gym must be doing the same to me cuz I believe in Karma.
