I was getting the Paypal scam for about two weeks, funny thing was each one
told me i had 5 days to comply and bring my account up to date,
Shucks I never had an account, they did this during the x mas shopping
season, stopped now.
I have also been getting a lot of e-mails from these assholes that think i
fell of a turnip truck yesterday trying to get me to be their freind with
millions in the bank Bla bla bla.
I return their message and tell them as soon as the FBI gives me the okay
i'll call them.
after about tem of these and a couple that the reply said F%$# YOU ASSHOLE
they stopped
For now anyway, I'm Sure "They'll Be Back "

I like to bid on eBay at times, and I know some of you do also, and
some sell there.
Earlier this evening, I got the below e-mail. I was a bit
suspcious, first because the link asked me to log on. So, I checked and
it hadn't gone directly to eBay. Went back and checked closer, and
found some suspicious wording.
I reported it to per their instructions, and asked
it it had actually came from them. As it turned out, no, it did not
come from them. Below is a copy of the phoney e-mail I got. If you get
a copy, you should report it to eBay.
