Beware of Scammers in The Net

June 27th, 2009 by admin |

I always received scam or fraud emails everyday. I am already use to it. Once I received them, I immediately put them to my spam mails to prevent them from not going to my regular inbox again. There are a lot of forms of scam or fraud mails..Some scammers say that you won millions of money from lottery when in fact you did not enter that lottery. Some are using other big company names like yahoo, google, sony ericson, etcetera to make you believe that they are true but they are not. They just want to get your personal information and your money too..Never believed in these scammers that are proliferating in the net..Again and again, I am warning you not to give your personal information to them..Be very careful whom you are corresponding too especially if you did not see them in person..Below is a sample of a scam mail that I received….BEWARE!!
