I am stoked to get my cash! :smiley: I can’t wait to spend it on new unicycles.

I recently received one of these scams from an “orphan” requesting assistance securing his deceased parents funds and offering to be adopted as well.

And just now I got one that created a pop up window requesting automatic confirmation that I had read the entire message. Yuck! I declined to send such a confirmation.

I was just awarded a fifth of 18 million british pounds from the CITI UK Bank. Apparently the owner was killed in the recent bombing.

Wouldn’t it suck if I was actually supposed to recieve it but just blew it off?

What doe sit mean again if the name of the sender has no capitals?
