P-MAIL Spammer

Post Sat Sep 11, 2004 3:31 pm


Has everyone else also been spammed by this pbase spammer

http://www.pbase.com/jeyaka

?

They are offering to deposit $19 million..... as if we would consider that, after all it is a small fraction of what the Nigerian government usually offers.

Hopefully pbase can stay free from this sort of stuff.

WHAT?! You mean I shouldn't have sent Jekaya my bank account information?! But she said I was "respectfull"! I like how she spelled out her email address: jeyaka act jumpy dot it

Anyone else get mail from lpforum.net also? It looks like a legitimate travel site, but the email ostensibly asking permission to use my images on their site is so vague re. my work as to be an obvious ploy to increase membership there.

Sheesh.

I recieved that one too...


// Edit: Now that I´m thinking I did recieve two copies of that message but from different times (about 3 minutes, more than a simply error)... So it was probably sent to us to do what you said.

I turned it down, I don't need the money. According to Readers Digest I may already have won 100 000...

A good read for anyone receiving these letters:

Scamming the scammers, the reading is actually quite funny.
