[QUOTE="HandsomeToad, post: 499382, member: 12965"]The scams are getting worse and more frequent. :( I've been averaging about two phishes a week but I am not receiving emails such as the one on the OP but it's only a matter of time before those will start. ;) I made the mistake of completing a IQ test a few weeks ago and to get the results, I had to enter my name & email address but once I did that, I didn't get the results, they started trying to sell me stuff so I realized it was a scam to get my email address and ever since, I have been inundated with junk mail. :( I'm about to kill that email address because I only use it for certain things and I'm tired of adding new domains to my blocked list. Thanks for sharing this newest scam with us because as with coin collecting, education is the key to keep from being scammed. :thumb: Ribbit :)[/QUOTE]
