Default People REALLY fall for this????

In every one of my "webmaster" accounts today:

"Dear PayPal Customer,


PayPal Resolution Center: Your account is limited

Why is my account access limited?

noticed an issue regarding your account

Our system detected unusual number of invalid logging attempts on your account from these blacklist ip address.

(Your case ID for this reason is PP-0042376.)

How can i restore my account access?

apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. In order to assist us with this security measure, we ask that you send

Well, when you consider you only need a very, very few responses to make it worth while, it works. 99.999% of people ignore it, but that 0.001% that do respond are worth it, I guess.

The lottery scams apparently still work as well.

Yeah, I laugh everytime I hear about someone being taken by the lottery ones, because it's been covered so much in the news I can't believe everyone hasn't heard about them. I still get those occasionally too.

Keep in mind that people are still sending money to Nigera every day.

The Paypal one is similar to the ones for all the banks. I see them and I know that someone is logging in on a fake bank website right there and then, and that their bank accounts will be cleaned out shortly.

I always get a laugh out of those phony bank e-mails - I have one checking account, and it's at a small local bank that does NOT have online access. So if Wells Fargo/Wachovia/Chase has "suspended" my online access, great!

All of the rest of us probably get those in our email every day too.
Why do we have to get them on Oprano and all of the other boards all the time too?
Is there some reason for posting copies of the same old spam, or are people just
INCREDIBLY bored?

In other big news, I got a Viagra spam today.

free nick, the pioneer of internet marketing. If it wasn't for him, we wouldn't have so much fun cleaning out our inboxes and spending money on spam and virus protection software. Him and his buddies put the www in wwway more fun.

You should get Ron to pay for the operation, cheap bastard that he is. Say hi to him from the picture taker who watched him abandon porn for mainstream when he thought he was gonna get rich and sabby was gonna fuck him....lololol.... I hear he is still a pimp. So sad to see failure on a semi sortof kinda medium like scale. They all come back when they can't cut it in the real world.

Yes, well, that was a little attempt at humor....which apparently fell short. I guess my career on comedy central is just a dream.

Not at all, just figured I would mention it because I usually get asked. I had someone try to bust my balls on another board asking what will happen when me and Eric break up. I had already posted that it was my kids names so he looked like a jackass. LOL
