Blog EntryWhat a hoax!Mar 17, '08 6:41 AM
for everyone

I just had the strangest experience online, which is kinda exasperating!

 

I checked my emails today and a message from a certain ebay "buyer" sent me a message claiming that we had made a sale and that the payment was already tendered.

 

It was so weird, coz I haven't even made any transactions on ebay, had never even signed-up for it and never offered any items for sale on the site.

 

I followed the link provided in the message and my internet service provider blocked it with a remark that it was a "phishing website", haha!

 

Too bad for the creep who sent that message, my brilliant internet service provider was smarter.

 

Crooks never learn!!!

They never will! I frequently receive emails from Africa that I won some kind of lottery saying all they want is my info and bank acct. # so they could forward the money. Hahaha!

Old school crooks =]
