Lesson the first
Never open an attachment claiming to be from the FBI. If the FBI really wanna get in contact they're not gonna be sending attachments of what to do.
And how my IP would lead to my hotmail address I'm not quite sure

Registered 16 years agoLooking through my junk mail... it's so much more fun than my regular mail. Old highscool chums trying desperately to get in touch, Nigerian Princes looking for the use of my back account....
One of my "old friends" has gotten back in touch!
"hey its me, my old address dont work at time. i dont know why?!
in the last days ive got some mails. i' think thaz your mails but im not sure!
plz read and check ...
cyaaaaaaa"
Awww. They've thoughtfully inclosed a 5 meg zip file of "mails" for me to "read and check". Luckily I know this person is not my friend as I don't speak to people who type like that!
I mean the name ArtisticSLS@aol.com sounds familair but I just can't place them...

Registered 16 years agoHas anyone read Yes Man by Danny Wallace?
Long, but excellent, story short this guy agreed to say yes to every suggestion request and invitation for a set period of time. He ended up following a Nigerian Email scam and a Spanish Lottery scam till the end. Very Funny. -

I've had some classic worried phone calls recently. Apparently there's yet another variant on the Nigerian scam which targets small businesses in North America. What happens is that 'venture capitalists' in Europe send unsolicited e-mail to people in the US and Canada with small businesses and tell them that they want to invest megabucks in their companies. Great! say the business owners. Let's talk! So an exchange of e-mails ensues until suddenly the wannabe investors announce that their money transfer has been blocked because the EU requires an "EU anti-terrorism certificate" which will cost - you guessed it - 4,000 euro to process. o_O
Trouble is, when they see this obviously fake pos, many of them pay up. The ones who check with us must be the tip of the iceberg...
Tell them they don't need that but they need to provide you with a photograph of their entire workforce so that it can be checked for diversity. "Please group ethnic minorities together to aid counting and request that wheelchair users and dwarfs stand at the front". -

ROFL ... I love the American version of an official Europen seal. A big eagle over a double headed axe.
Excellent.

We got something similar today. With "we" I mean the IP law firm where I work. A mail from the BKA, the German FBI, so to speak, because of all the warez we allegedly download. -
