The World Wide Web Addict

Here is another scammer or swindler who sent me a message offering US$26 Million Dollars. How I wish this is true so that I can help a lot of poor people especially in my home country. Sad to know, this kind of mail is a scam or fraud and will never come true. Would you think anyone whom you don’t know will offer such kind of amount? I believed not.

This is a warning to all of you not to trust this kind of people. Lastly, I am always reminding you not to give any personal information to them. Here is a sample of a SCAM OR FRAUD MAIL that I received in my inbox today. I just copy and pasted it below.
