First junk fax I've received since buying this machine about 18 months ago...

Number blocked but it appears to have been sent from outside of Australia.

Isn't it cheaper to send emails?

tolik · 02-17-2007, 08:05 AM

probably some overseas cheap fax services been used for this.

fax cannot be blocked by spam filter ;)

Damn, that sucks. I saw a 419 scam letter the other day. My buddy got it from some shitty little town in spain and it claims he won the national lottery, but needs to give his bank details and a fee...

Steve Awesome · 02-17-2007, 08:39 AM

In the old days these came in the actual mail. When faxes started getting around in the 80s the scammers moved to the fax. It's actually surprising to see one still come through on the fax given email has pretty much replaced the mode of first contact for initiating the scam.

Those guys are the world's trash's trash, anyway. Fuckers.

rowan · 02-17-2007, 08:52 AM

I'm wondering whether they are just working through every number combination until they connect, or whether they have my fax# on a list somewhere. It's silent as is my main number.

pr0 · 02-17-2007, 08:59 AM

what kind of mind bending drugs would someone have to be on to think they just won 20% of $86,000,000 USD

xenilk · 02-17-2007, 09:01 AM
