I got one yesterday that was a payment confirmation for $400+ for diamonds that I didn't buy. It was freaky, but I checked my account and there was no such transaction. They got action out of me, but I'm not stupid enough to click their links. I turned them in, too. Woot! Good Lawd, you’d think they could at least have someone who speaks proper english proof it!

The typical crap that I get involves the whole "I got 625 million dollars and if you'll help me, I'll give you 20%". I actually reply to them and say, "Sorry to hear about your troubles. However, due to a multitude of internet scams, I require $100,000 in US dollars as a sign of good faith before I can render any help." I like to mess with them.

LOL Thanks for the heads up about where to send those. I have received a couple that I knew were fake right away but didn't think about forwarding (blonde moments on my part) I hope you had a great weekend! :-D Obviously their phishing has been successful for them, perhaps they should tone down the urgency a bit, that is a dead giveaway, all the !!!

Indian? Chad? No, I don't get a lot, but I did get one from a fella who has been diagnosed with cancer and wants me to help him spend $18 million. I would, but it's kind of chump change. “To entry the confirmation” etc. Nigerian? Indian? Chad?

A year ago I wrote an article on phishing for work and nobody had even heard of it. Now it's part of the daily lingo. And it's expected to get worse. Gah! I get those all the time– and I don’t even have a paypal acct.
