So sad, I got that email a few times, it's sure to get a few newbies

strobi 04-30-2004 01:52 PM

If you send out a few million of those.. there has to be at least a few hundred that fall for it:Graucho

Back in the old days it was much, much easier to phish (but we only did it for usernames and shit...never cc info). It was more of a game to see how many people would actually fall for it. Out of every 100 emails or IMs I sent I had at least 15-20 replies!

You'd be amazed at how gullible some people are! :2 cents:

JDog 04-30-2004 01:55 PM

I get about 6 of them a day. I'm getting god damn tired of them!

They had one from PayPal going around for some time too. Lot of people fell for it.

hostey_com 04-30-2004 02:19 PM

I had some people contact me asking if I could help them run a scam like this, some big bucks in it...

reynold 04-30-2004 06:23 PM

I wonder how many stupid people really fall for this one!

Theo 04-30-2004 06:26 PM

looks legit to me :Graucho
