    Spam and suspicious posts.

    Thanks for the latest reports on spam posts.

    Just a kindly word of warning though. I'm no expert, but you never know what these things contain, so it's perhaps best not to click on them - just report them to admin.

    Thanks again,
    Ron

          you know those email ones...........the ones that say they are a nigerian prince with millions of dollars that he cant get out of the country but if he could have your bank details blah blah blah........................

          i once answered one of those just for fun

          we swopped emails for about a week, convinced him i was interested

          got an email back with a form to fill in........i got creative....went along the lines of.......

          NAME: Alan Carr (you need to be british Moni lol)
          wanted a pic so i attached of Alan Carr too

          Address of Bank : Bank of England, Threadneedle Street, London
          Bank Account number: I found one to make payments into (in not out of) Her Majesty Revenue and Customs
          My address: 24 Grosvenor Square, Mayfair,London (its the US Embassy in London)

          he then asked for a phone number so he could ring me to verify i was genuine

          i was naughty

          i actually found online the office number to contact the Director of the Northern Branch of UK Online Fraud Investigation Unit

          dont know why but i never heard from him again, kept ignoring my emails ....so rude

              i dont............the memsahib does though

              once when we moved we got plagued by all the energy companies phoning up trying to get us to change suppliers....til she got sick of it

              one convosation i over heard was how we didnt buy electricity cos we had a giant windmill in the back garden and made our own......in fact we had too much and we could sell you some.............another time she told the guy we didnt have a supplier cos we had knocked a brick out in the wall between us and the neighbours and we had plugged an extension lead into one of his sockets

              soon got the message

                  This seems to be a reply to a post on "latest reports on spam posts", but I can't find that post on those latest reports. Where are they please?
