Different scams land in my scam box every day. My scam box
is my spam email box.
If all the lottery wins were true,
I would be making millions every week. Actually according to one scammer, who
sent me an email just now, I have just won $2.5 million in the Toyota Car
Lottery International Promotions Thailand. All I have to do to pick up my money
is contact Dr. Yousef Vugar. David Idan,
the claim agent, Toyota Lottery Thailand Branch, Email:toyotalottreyprom@yahoo.co.jp Phone Contact : +66800728539

sex.

Honestly, I am amazed that anybody
would be foolish enough to respond to an email of this sort. The scammers try desperately
to convince me that the reason this mail happened to be sent out to me in
particular was because of my activity on the internet. It just so happens twelve
people every year are selected from Microsoft, Hotmail, Yahoo, Gmail accounts,
company domains, and other providers to win $2.5 million.
How fortunate can a person be. There must be billions of email accounts. And
I was one of the lucky few.
It is amazing that anybody would
even bother responding to an email scam of this nature. There are so many of
them that every day they are arrive in the junk box.
The junk box is not something that
I usually check. However, of late I have been looking in it to see what the
scammers are trying to do, because of an attempt to scam me via a more
sophisticated means through the ruse of a woman looking for a partner. This was
a well thought out stratagem that incorporated all the hallmarks of legitimacy,
except there were many telltale signs that for any discerning person indicated
that this was a scam. Although, at times, I was thinking that it just might not
be a scam, although the alarm bells were always ringing, even when I put them
on silent. This is what we have to be careful of these days. Crafty crooks who devise strategies to
mislead us into thinking that we want to help someone out in their misfortune.
The blatant scams , of which there
are many, are easy to spot. When scammers has information they have obtained
from a legitimate source, they are able to get their emails into your inbox and
this presents a problem, especially if a person is feeling a little lonesome, a
little depressed or not on top of their game for some reason.
But if you really want to get on
top of your game, if you want have something to do with your time, then become
a blogger and make some money. In which
