Fake Mails

[Rapier Racer]

Just a small heads up, there seems to be another wave of fake emails spoofing Paypal going around saying your account has been identified as having high risk activity blah blah and of course the respond to this notice button which takes you to some fake ass site. Be careful everyone! :nod

Yeah, that's the same way I deal with those guys. But sadly these fake-mail suckers are never impressed even when they'd get a thousend answers like the one mentioned above... But it's still fun though.:)

I have bought 2 things off ebay.
one was a neGcon, I have that :D
the other was the saturn versions of WipEout and 2097, that never arrived, the guy was always "yeah I'll send it tomorrow" and eventually stopped replying altogether

For those a tad worried about this, all companies involving online money transfer such as Paypal and online banks such as Egg etc. address you by your real name...so if you get "Dear x member" its fake...:)

also the web address used in 99% of cases is a string of numbers (zzz.zzz.zzz.zzz) ... it pays to read which site you're actually on
