Quick 'headsup'

May 19, 2007 14:57

Just received an email warning me to update my Paypal information or my account would be suspended - the email's a hoax, and I've forwarded it to Paypal. As I was deleting it I remembered the report on telelvision just a few nights ago about how many people are still be tricked by these bogus emails, both the 'Nigerian Investment' scam and these type of emails which hide bogus site addresses behind what appears to be legitimate links.

So, just figured I'd give a headsup to anyone not sure, and receiving these types of emails - dump them, or forward them to the actual site concerned, it might help them track the people doing it.

Stay safe!
