Internet scams

[Shadow]

Reading todays Chronnie about the two guys jailed for obtaining money by these scams it never ceases to amaze me that normally sensible people seem to take leave of their senses and send off money to total strangers.If its not the women sending thousands to blokes they think they are in love with its others falling time and again for this inheritence scam

Years back I used to get these absolutely hilarious emails-some-one had come into money but didnt have a bank account-if I provided mine I'd get a cut

Or if I sent a small amount of money I'd receive a huge amount.

Whats that saying again?

If it looks too good to be true it probably is

Aye, I've had some of those in the past as well shads!! Trouble is, people are greedy and think there is something for nothing to be had!!! And the only thing had is them!!

Im sick of getting Emails telling me my bank account has been suspended and to fill in a online form to reactivate it.
I do fill it in but not with the infomation they are hoping for
My so has a Latin reference book which i flick through ..I havent a clue what im reading but if the words are long and look important
thats what i write ;D
