Sad News....................Charles O'donnell

#1

I'm writing this with tears in my eyes,my family and I came over here to
London,United Kingdom for a short vacation. unfortunately,we were
mugged at the park of the hotel where we stayed,all cash and credit card
were stolen off us but luckily for us we still have our passports with
us.

We've been to the Embassy and the Police here but they're not helping
issues at all and our flight leaves in few hours from now but we're
having problems settling the hotel bills and the hotel manager won't let
us leave until we settle the bills. Well I really need your financial
assistance..Please, Let me know if you can help us out? Am freaked out
at the moment!!

Easy money is a strong motivator. No conscious and a disrespect for fellow humans helps. Old Charley will pay for his life path.

The scumbags gain access to a someone's email account, usually by tricking
the victim to type their account/password info into a fake login page
("phishing"), then use the exploited account to send spam to everyone
in the victim's address book.

If the victim is a vpFREE member, chances are the vpFREE posting address
is in their address book, so that's how a copy comes to the group.

The innocent victim is generally completely unaware that their account has
been compromised in this manner until the angry responses start coming in.

One way to protect yourself: never ever ever type your password into a
page that asks for it, if you were linked to that page from an email.
If Yahoo sends you an email saying you need to login, go to your web
browser and type www.yahoo.com yourself. This is especially important if
you are logging into a banking site for what I hope are obvious reasons.
