I recieved two such Email scams from Nigeria or Ethiopia or somewhere about a week ago, and had heard about them, but opened them and replied back using language that I won't share here. Then I thought, what if one of those scammers had a computer virus and I just put it on my PC by opening it. Thankfully, it didn't happen. But here's one that I'd encourage everyone to look at, and I'm not advertising. I heard an investor type on the radio talking about this scam, and it sent a chill up my spine because my retired Mom does a lot of home banking, and is vulnerable. She wrote a comlumn in the Chicago Sun-Times about it, and spoke of it on the radio. If you get a chance, I'd strongly encourage everyone to take a moment and go to "www.chicagosuntimes.com", click on "search", and then type in "Of phishing for data and fishing for gifts" as I spelled it, then click on it and read. It'll make the hair stand up on your back and scare the bajeebers out of you. Honestly, take a moment and read it, and pass it on. Bad stuff.
