What am I talking about?
Well, I recently got on Paypal to sell my own, personal CD, as there's been a healthy interest in it. This meant my hitherto, private e-mail, became known to the wide masses of Internet. So far, so good. Until, suddenly I began to receive all kinds of e-mails, one crazier than the other. They have some things in common.
Most begin with 'Hello dear/Hello my dear'. They are sons and daughters of Prime Ministers, or some equally high-placed individual, in some Government Department, in S America, Africa et al. They had either inherited or had vast fortunes of millions, which they wanted transferred out of their country. They chose me, an absolute stranger, albeit a DEAR and honest one, to offer me a sizeable amount, if I allowed them to deposit their money in my account. And, all the poor dears asked of me, was, to fill in my name, address, account number blah blah...and the money would immediately be transferred!!
Lets recap....they do not even know my name, but know me as an honest and dear person to entrust their 'fortunes' to!! How does that equate...Let Einstein work it out, and, e-mail it to them!!
Of course, as money doesn't tempt me, I never respond, knowing full well it is a massive con. However, I SO wanted to reply and say 'WHO THE FRIGGING HELL DO YOU THINK YOU ARE TRYING TO CON, YOU MORONIC, BRAINLESS IDIOTS, WHO BELIEVE YOURSELVES TO BE SO CLEVER, SO CAN'T SEE HOW RIDICULOUSLY STUPID YOU ARE!!!' But, that would get me in a conversation with them, and, I don't want that. So, I control my anger, merely adding them to a long list of BLOCKED e-mails, which my Outlook system provides, thus, reducing their numbers.
By the way, I've even 'won' vast amounts on my mobiles whether their cards and numbers are permanent or temporary/renewable. Not surprisingly, they too, want me to part with all my personal data before they 'bank' my winnings!!! One final message to them, in a controlled, polite way of course as I cannot unleash the verbals on blog!!.
'HELLO DEARS...P*SS OFF!!'
You've been warned, my unknown readers (if there are any)!! I have no doubt, these cons, DO find many who are blinded by vast numbers, intended to make MONEY for them (the cons)... once you part with your personal details and bank account numbers, more likely thinking.. 'what can I lose' !!!!
A Peaceful, Healthy New Year 2014, and, may everyone be blessed with a kindness towards self/others, environment and, animals.
