Anatomy of an E-mail Scam
 

After reading the article do you guys have any thoughts, comments, or stuff that I left out?

Sorry , I could'nt find the artical, but I have noticed a new Scam out ( new to me ). I've resently gotten an e-mail about someone dying and leaving me all thier money to help with my "work with the poor and needy" .

I find it funny, because I'm one of those "Poor and Needy" people :hockey: .

Which article are you talking about? My inbox has recently been hit hard with all this money I've been inheriting from folks in Africa. How exciting!

perhaps you should link to the article in this thread for easier reading

lol, I saw a funny scam on another site about how a person got an email from some fake guy at a bank that said that someone deceased with millions of dollars in the bank and that they were the long lost relative 0_0

The one that I really like is your yahoo email has been chosen at random to win millions of dollars from microsoft...

My email is a gmail address, not a yahoo!

Pure genius.
