Another little gem I found in my mailbox: Apparently the British Prime Minister himself is sending me money.
My associate has helped me to send your first payment
of $7,500 USD to you as instructed by Mr. Dxxx Cxxx
the United Kingdom prime minister after the last G20
meeting that was held in United Kingdom, making you one
of the beneficiaries. Here is the information below.
MTCN Numbers: 6*****
Sender First Name Is = E*** F***
Second Name = I***
I told him to keep sending you $7,500 USD twice a week
until the FULL payment of ($820000.00 United State Dollars)
is completed.
A certificate will be made to change the Receiver Name as
stated by the British prime minister, send your Full Names
and address via Email to: Mr Garry Moore
you cannot pickup the money until the certificate is issued to you.
Regards
Mr. G** M***.

My Visa card was suspended
I got this really believable message in my spam folder, telling me that my visa card had been suspended and they asked me to fill in some information, like my visa card number. Yeah right, like I would fall for that.
The funny thing was that you could see it had been translated with Google translate, and that some characters looked suspiciously like Russian Cyrillic letters.
Here is the complete text :

People were honest
I got this strange reaction on my blog :
What on earth is he talking about?
Yeah I know what you mean , being around today is all together then it was when I was younger. I reckon that our grand parents didn't really even think about this , technology as we know it from many angles helps change things for both the good and the bad. You know I have an old school point of view , however I recall when people used to work hard . People were honest , you could trust if your kids were outside by themselves they were safe , and things weren't as costly. I recon costs are always going to go up , but you know I don't know why why we can't go back to the time when folks cared for one another and actually knew what their neighbors names were . I guess that is a thing of the past , but you know its a great day to be alive , so I suppose I otta just keep moving forward.

Legal advice anybody?
I got the following spam message in my mailbox :
help! i need some legal advice on custody / child support / divorce !!!!? Ok-I recently left my husband. We have 1 child together and 1 on the way. My husband still lives down south, and I moved to delaware (with the child). In delaware, my husband is considered a repeat offender and has several felony charges and is also a known drug user. Currently, he is not on drugs however. He doesn't have a car or a place of his own, and never stays at the same job too long.I am trying to work things out with him where we don't have to go through the courts, but he is being an ahole. He sends me all kinds of emails about how he's going to make sure I don't get any help from welfare, and how I can't make him pay child support b/c were married, and how he's going to get the kids.
I have several questions-If we r married but living in seperate states n he isn't supporting his child, can I get child support? What about help through welfare?
Is it possible that a judge would grant him even JOINT custody? With his record? He was put in jail for a few months for assault on a pregnant female (me) but was never convicted b/c I didn't show at court and would the judge still look at that? We were married in SC- can I file for legal separation in delaware, or do I have to travel all the way to SC? What are my options in this case? Are there lawyers out there that I can consult about this for free? What is the best thing for me to do in this situation? When I was 7 months pregnant he broke my cheekbone and I needed stitches in my ear. The state presses charges but were unable to prosecute b/c I didn't show. I didn't go to court b/c #1 I was all the way in SC and wasn't legally able to drive through virginia (suspended license) to delware, I had a job, and also b/c I was very young and stupid and let him convince me that he was sorry. He doesn't have a car (b/c he sold the few he had to get drugs) and he shares an apartment w/ 3 other guys¦..he can't keep a job. He is very unresponsible and has several 1st degree robbery charges as well as possession charges. I don't think he is fit to be a parent

Opgelet voor valse facturen!
Ik kreeg het volgende bericht via mijn bank: een gewaarschuwd mens is er twee waard!
Sinds kort onderscheppen fraudeurs bepaalde facturen die via de Post worden verstuurd. Vervolgens brengen ze hierop een zelfklever aan met de melding "nieuw rekeningnummer" of vervalsen ze het rekeningnummer via een scan. Daarna wordt de factuur naar de geadresseerde doorgestuurd.
Hoe kunt u zich beschermen?
- Wees altijd uiterst waakzaam! Zijn er aanpassingen aan de factuurgegevens, neem dan eerst contact op met de afzender alvorens deze te betalen.
- Bewaar steeds de gegevens van de leveranciers en hun bankrekeningnummer.
Hoe reageren indien u toch slachtoffer wordt?
- Dien onmiddelijk een aanklacht in bij de politie.
- Bezorg uw kantoor een kopie van de aanklacht.

Pas op met frauduleuze mails van keytrade bank
In verschillende media waarschuwde Online-beursmakelaar Keytrade haar klanten voor mogelijk frauduleuze e-mails. Afzenders die lijken op Keytrade vragen in deze mails naar bepaalde persoonlijke gegevens.
De groep benadrukt dat die mails vals zijn en dat zij haar klanten nooit vraagt om via e-mail informatie te versturen over paswoorden, bankrekeningnummers, kaartnummers, enz.
In de frauduleuze mails die worden verstuurd is dat wel het geval. Als u dus een mail krijgt met als titel 'Billing Information records' of 'update your account information', beantwoordt deze mails dan niet, en klik nergens op mogelijke links.

Warenhuizen schenden onze Privacy
Pas op als je gaat winkelen bij warenhuizen zoals Aldi en Spar. Als je daar betaalt met een bankkaart, dan verschijnt het volledige nummer van die kaart op het kassaticket. Heel wat mensen laten dat ticket gewoon liggen in de winkelwagen, of gooien het in de vuilbak. Het is dus een koud kunstje voor criminelen om zo je nummer te weten te komen.
Het vreemde is dat andere warenhuisketens zoals Okay, Red Market, GB en Lidl je rekeningnummer niet op het ticket vermelden, of alleen maar de laatste 4 cijfers tonen (zodat je weet met welke kaart je betaald hebt.
Waarom is het dan zo moeilijk voor Aldi en Spar om hetzelfde te doen? Sommige mensen denken dat het niet gevaarlijk is dat hun bankrekeningnummer in handen zou vallen van criminelen, maar dat klopt niet. Internetfraudeurs hebben maar al te graag de nummers van rekeningen om zo op online winkelsites hun slag te slaan.

Urgent Assistance Needed
Somebody from Burkina Fasso contacted me because he needs my urgent assistance. In return he will give me 5 million dollars. Not bad for a couple of hours work, hé !
Some of these spammers really take us for a fool.
Some of these spammers really take us for a fool.
Hello....!!
I work with a bank In West Africa,Burkina faso. I have a business transaction for you.
In my department we discovered an abandoned sum of $10.5 Million US Dollars .In an account that belongs to one of our foreign customer who died along with his entire family in car bomb in Iraq.
Since his supposed next of kin died along side with him at the Bomb blast,there is nobody to claim the left over balance in the account.It is therefore upon this discovery that I and other officials in my department decided to seek your assistance and present you to the bank as his Next of kin.
If you accept i would give you the guide lines of how we can achieve this transfer of the balance (10.5Million Dollars) to your account.and we will shear the money 50-50%.
I expect that you will give me your telephone and fax numbers for easy communication with you and for more details.
Best Regards
My beloved One in Christ
I received a very nice spam letter in the mail today, from a fellow Christian. Nice that she wants to share her wealth with me, no ? (Sarcasm!)
Hello My Beloved One In Christ.
I greet you with the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, It is true that this letter may come to you as a surprise. Nevertheless, I humbly ask you to give me your attention and hear me well.
My name is Mrs H. D. from Australia. I am H. to Dr.D, who worked with our Embassy in Ivory Coast ( Cote D'ivoire ) for a period of 8 years before he died . We were married for 22 years without a child before he died after a brief illness. Since his death I decided not to remarry due to my religious belief . When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of US$6.5m (Six Million Five Hundred Thousand United State American dollars ) with a Bank in Cote D'ivoire. Presently this money is still in the custody of the Bank in Cote D'ivoire. Recently, my Doctor told me that I would not last for the next Four months due to cancer illness.
Having known my condition I decided to donate this money to churchs, organisation or good person that will utilise this money the way I am going to instruct herein.
I want you to use this money for churchs, Charity organisation, orphanages, widows and other people that are in need. l took this decision because I don't have any child that will inherit this money . Moreover, my husband relatives are not close to me since I devolop a Cancer problem and it had been their wish to see me dead in order to inherit his wealth since we have no Child. These people are not worthy of this inheritance. This is why I am taking this decision.
I don't need any telephone communication in this regard because of my ill-health. As soon as I receive your reply I will give you the contact of the Bank in Cote d'ivoire where this money is deposited. I will also issue a letter of authorisation to the bank that will prove you the present beneficiary of this money. I also want you to always put me in prayer.
Any delay in your reply may give me room to look for another good person for this same purpose. Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I stated herein.
Hoping to receive your response soonest.
Thanks and Remain blessed .
Yours sister in the Lord,
Mrs. H. D.,

Wat is Whaling?
Whaling is de nieuwste trend bij internetfraude. Hoe werkt het? Je krijgt een alarmerende e-mail via Facebook of via je hotmail account van een vriend die zogenaamd in het buitenland vastzit en die al zijn geld, gsm, documenten kwijt is.
Hij vraagt je dringend om financiële hulp.Als je daarop ingaat en geld stuurt, blijkt achteraf dat het e-mailadres of de Facebook-account "gehackt" waren door de georganiseerde misdaad.
De behulpzame vrienden zijn hun geld kwijt en de vriend weet natuurlijk van niets.

An interesting message from a Mrs. Jenny Lee.
Subject: Humanitarian
Greetings from Mrs. Lee,
My name is Jenny Lee; a dying woman who has decided to donate what I have for the good work of charity. I was diagnosed for breast cancer for about 2 years now.I have been touched by God to donate from what I have inherited from my late husband to you for the good work of God, rather than allow my husband evil relatives to use my husband hard earned funds ungodly. They don't care about man kind, all they care is how to rob some money from me and spend them ungodly.
Please pray that the good Lord forgives me my sins. I have asked God to forgive me and I believe he has because He is a merciful God. I will be going in for
a surgery soon and I want to make sure that I make this donation before undergoing my surgery.I decided to donate my fund to you for investment towards the good work of the lord, and also to help the motherless and less privilege and for the assistance of the widows and unfortunate mothers. At the moment I don't want any telephone calls due to the fact that my husband's relatives are always around me and trying to see if they can overhear my conversations and my health status as well.I wish you all the best and may the good Lord bless you abundantly. please use the funds well and always extend the good work to others. It is true that I dont know you and you don't know, but I have been directed by God to contact you for this grace. I will appreciate your utmost confidentiality in this matter until the task is accomplished.

Phising over Rabobank
Ik kreeg het volgende bericht in mijn mailbox, waarschijnlijk van Rabobank. Ik vond het maar normaal om het hier ook te publiceren, zodat zoveel mogelijk mensen gewaarschuwd kunnen worden:
Sinds enkele dagen zijn er frauduleuze e-mails van Rabobank in omloop. De mails hebben als boodschap dat uw account niet kan worden geverifieerd. Deze mails zijn niet verstuurd door Rabobank! Open ze dus niet en verwijder ze onmiddellijk.
Waarom? Omdat deze e-mails een bijlage kunnen bevatten die een virus op uw computer installeert. Of ze vermelden een link naar een frauduleuze website. Op die site wordt u gevraagd om persoonlijke gegevens in te voeren. Doe dit nooit!
Hoe herkent u een frauduleuze e-mail of website?
Controleer de aanspreking in de e-mail en let op taal- en tikfouten.
Wij vragen u nooit om persoonlijke gegevens zoals uw geboortedatum, rekeningnummer of PIN-code in te voeren.
Controleer of het adres van de website begint met 'https'. Staat er alleen 'http' (dus zonder 's' achteraan), dan is de internetverbinding niet beveiligd.
Rabobank.be mailt u steeds vanop het adres noreply@rabobank.be (afzender: Rabobank.be) of vanop info@rabobank.be (afzender: Klantendienst Rabobank.be).
Als u met deze vuistregels rekening houdt, hebt u weinig te vrezen. Rabobank stelt alles in het werk om frauduleuze mails zo snel mogelijk uit de lucht te halen.

Opgepast met 03/608.24.00
Pas op als je een telefoontje krijg van het nummer 03/608.24.00
Lees hieronder wat een aantal personen hebben meegemaakt:
A: "Toen ik vanmorgen bij de dokter was, kreeg ik twee maal een telefoontje van het nummer 03/608.24.00. Vreemd, want mijn mobiel nummer geef ik zelden aan onbekenden, en dit nummer stond niet in mijn adreslijst. Toen ik 's avonds terugbelde, kreeg ik het bericht dat "dit nummer niet bereikbaar was".
B: "ik word al meer dan 3 maanden door dit nummer opgebeld. Meestal zie ik het verschijnen op het scherm, en dan stoppen ze met bellen. Een paar keer hebben ze zelf afgelegd nadat ik mijn naam zei. Als ik terugbel is het altijd de "overbezettoon".
Ik heb dit nummer toen gegoogled, en kwam al snel erachter dat ik niet de enige persoon ben die door dit nummer lastiggevallen wordt. Blijkbaar gaat er een uitgeverij schuil achter dit nummer, die allerhande producten probeert te verkopen: tijdschriftenabonnementen, lingerie, bankzaken enz... Vaak stellen ze redelijk privévragen (wat is je naam, bij welke bank is je echtgenoot aangesloten...) enzovoort.
Navraag lijkt te wijzen naar Uitgeverij Van Wegener. Zijn er nog mensen die hier problemen mee hebben?

Irish Curses
Today I got a strange curse in my mailbox.
May the curse of Mary Malone and her nine blind illegitimate children chase you so far over the hills of Damnation that the Lord himself cant find you with a telescope.
What can I do against it? :)

The Jelly of Misfortune
Another nice proverb a spammer sent me:
When the tide of misfortune moves over you even jelly will break your teeth
When the tide of misfortune moves over you even jelly will break your teeth
The Tongue proverb
I keep getting proverbs from spammers. Don't know what their fascination is with it, but it makes excellent reading.
Here is today's offer :
The tongue can paint what the eye can't see

Fest der Sinne
A nice little love letter from a German fan :)
Ich suche einen ungebundenen Mann, der an einer lockeren und doch
verbindlichen Beziehung interessiert ist. Ein Widerspruch, denkst du? Ja
und nein. Es ist so, dass ich mich einerseits nach einem Mann sehne,
andererseits aber momentan wenig Zeit habe, um mich wirklich auf eine
konventionelle Beziehung einzulassen aber wer weiss was kommt . Und doch
vermisse ich die Nähe eines Mannes und zärtliche Berührungen.
Eine reine Bettbeziehung wiederum kann ich mir auf Dauer nicht vorstellen.
Vielmehr wünsche ich mir einen Mann kennen zu lernen, mit dem ich gemeinsam
Dinge unternehmen kann (ein köstliches Dinner zu zweit, inspirierende
Gespräche, einen Spaziergang an einem idyllischen Fleckchen, einen
gemütlichen Abend kuschelnd vor dem Fernseher...) und natürlich auch die Er
otik geniessen. Wir sehen uns regelmässig, aber nicht täglich – so kann
jede unserer Begegnungen ein Fest der Sinne werden. Allerdings solltest du
bereit sein, mehr zu geben als nur die Hasennummer – also auch Wärme,
Geborgenheit und Zuneigung.
