was from the Director of the FBI, not F.B.I. Finally I got ticked off and forwarded an e-mail to the F.B.I.'s computer crimes division. Then about a month ago I read in the paper where the real F.B.I. is a little ticked themselves and are going after the scammer. Other than that I get all the scam prize winning spam from all over the world. I'm the luckiest guy in the world to have won so many contests! My dad once got a phone call scam. They wanted money to send him his winnings, he told them to take the fee out of the winnings and send him the rest. Dad was very animated on our side of the phone!:D

A father to be proud of.

I'm all instigated out, after j0kers contest. I need some time to recuperate and regroup my thoughts, but thanks for the offer !!! :D

Yeah I caught the tail end of that contest...I was in PA at my nieces wedding and then busy with my daughters 8th grade graduation. By the time I got done reading through it my guts hurt too bad from laughing to find anything quick enough. You do know what they say about PAYBACKS right?:ohmy:

Man, I just couldn't get home fast enough to do anything with it... I think I had some pretty good ideas. :D Also, when I did get home, I couldn't get onto ECF. I guess the site was down for a bit today?

I get these scams constantly. Being a minister my contact info is on my site and there is always some family that has tons of funds that they need some christian bla bla bla to send the funds to a us bank etc. I just mark them as phishing scams through I.e.

It still amazez me how low people will stoop. NEVER click on these links, as it confirms to the sender that they have a real email addy, and many times by clicking a cookie or other spy tool is implemented that could potentialy scan your computer for all personal data. Next thing you know you're screwed, sorry no other words to describe it.;)
