Thanks Doomsie, now I'm going to have that song stuck in my head.

Can't promise I'll drop by, Lara, but I also don't have the info for it anymore since I got my new computer.

Damn, I agree... Why wont I get awesome mails like that!!!?   :(

The only scammer I ever encountered was this hot turkish chick that contacted me on facebook. When I told her that I wasn't quite sure whether I knew her or not, "she" replied:

"No"
"My firend you fuck"

What the hell do you say to that? :)

Dammit!

DAMMIT!!DAMMIT!!DAMMIT!!DAMMIT!!DAMMIT!!DAMMIT!!DAMMIT!!DAMMIT!!DAMMIT!!DAMMIT!!

I am SO pissed.

I have no fricking clue how my hotmail account got compromised.  It happened within the last 24 hours and I've checked every PC I had been on.  None of them are infected (at least, not with anything known); I am 99.9999% sure I didn't visit any 'bad' site or respond to any phishing email.  I can't image a case where I left my logon 'active' anywhere where someone could grab it.

So how the fuck did they get my password?

'standard lore' on the Internet (yeh, always a trustworthy source) strongly indicates that I screwed up somewhere.  I'm not buying it.

So brute force of some .sam file?  log-on email bot testing thousands of passwords?  How?  HOW????

DAMMITT!!!!!

Actually, now that I'm thinking about it, I got phished like two weeks ago and had to change my passwords (had already made sure my system was clean.) Not sure how it happened either, my system is locked down pretty tight with all sorts of programs.

It was also using my MSN messenger to boot me offline and send it's own messages for advertising.

=) At least you aren't complaining that I gave you a song that's stuck in your heard like Yellow Submarine, Everybody was Kung Fu Fighting, The Song that Never Ends or It's a Small World After All.

I don't know how mine got hacked. I have a semi decent password with numbers in it.

hehe, but this really DID happen to a RL friend of mine. She was in Haiti doing relief work for Save the Children and updated her FB with this -

Its an exceedingly bad day so far. My wallet was just stolen with everything possible in it, and the car to pick me up has forgotten me, and I've been waiting over an hour now in blistering sun. With absolutely no money or identity. Good times in Haiti.

And yes, everything turned out okay.

No more replies from Nigerian BlueCross - Either he felt going into the bank wouldn't work or he figured out what Gringott's Bank was all about.

GIS for Nigerian BlueCross



Look at those eyes! He's so dreamy!!!

Glad you replied back am sorry i can't call the mugger's took away all i had and i don't have access to phone that i need you to get me out of this mess .

Thanks for the concern

Well, no matter, I can come and meet you , I'm only 40 mins drive away from west derby and  i have satnav, whats the name of the hotel, i can be there in an hour -  Jen wants to help too, she just got a promotion, so between us we can sort out your hotel bill and flight and take you for dinner! Dont let this give you a bad impression of us Brits, Dick!

Let's see how he gets out of a date with me and Jen :P


OK. Now it makes sense. I was seeing Dick Tongue and now Jen Tongue. The board wasn't converting the smileys.

Who's Dick Tongue I thought? I thought you called him (the scammer) that a first and he never corrected you.

I never heard from scammer after I asked to meet him, but now I'm super paranoid about my email! Changing passwords is all very well, but I instantly forget any password that is complicated enough to deter a hacker!
