lol I just got that one today. Must be the newest thing to hit MSN

[peaz]

yeah, but it's also suprising to realise how many people actually believe these sort of thing. seriously, even the nigerian scams. I personally knew of one who actually followed through just because there was a human response to their response.... errr duh? But i think they do know it's a scam la in the end and didn't lose any money.

Talk about scam, what do you guys think about this email i got?

[Adrian Wong]

Obviously fake. So is the one about Microsoft tracking an e-mail and rewarding all those who forwarded it. Recently, I received an "improved" version which had all sorts of comments by "real people" tacked onto it, claiming they received huge amounts of money in their bank accounts.

[pyroboy1911]

i think the recent one are those that sends you weird weird links, like these:

(3:16 AM) ~LiLy~~: ht tp://www.vjwmrh.info/
(3:16 AM) ~LiLy~~: bye

12:01 PM) ~LiLy~~: ht tp://www.kqmgtf.info/

(2:53 PM) ~LiLy~~: ht tp://www.yxwzmq.info/
(2:53 PM) ~LiLy~~ is now Offline
(5:10 PM) ~LiLy~~: ht tp://www.fpkmjw.info/

i dunno what this is about, but probably the same type with the blocker ones, which requires ppl to input password...and they actually did!

[strawroot]

I get many 'lottery winning notifications' through out the year, and there is always someone claiming to have left some billions of money for me

damn i could have been rich

[belikethat]

the sms scam was the best
you spam a thousand, and out of the thousand some one or two silly being will be caught in their trap, i just pitty them

[Adrian Wong]

Damn.. His virus-infected MSN is getting smarter. Instead of repeating the same old messages again and again, it's now sending me variations every few minutes.

Eric Wong: it's your image too see there ? :S http:// msnimages.oxyhostsfree.com/viewimage.php?=awsh@hotmail.com
Eric Wong: hey, is this really YOU?? :S http:// msnimages.oxyhostsfree.com/viewimage.php?=awsh@hotmail.com
Eric Wong: Hey is this your picture? http:// 3dua.com/images/viewimage.php?=awsh@hotmail.com

Even with a payout of 750,000 quid I'd still think twice before driving another KIA
