Here's a fun thing: I just had my e-mail shut down for "suspicious activity" on Yahoo. Anyone had that problem before?

I had a yahoo (fake Lad) account shut down once, as an actual Lad told me after his dollar was chopped:

Quote:

For record purposes, i do not know the so called Mr Le0 Jide0ff0r who from our investigation is a fraud star who got your information and played a fast one on you.
I have equally reported his email and report made available to me indicated that the email is a fraudulent email. Consequently, yahoo have close his box.

Considering that Le0 Jide0ff0r had chopped them to the tune of over $6000, it's not surprising they went the extra bit...

I had a mail.com account suspended because I replied to a lad whose mail was marked as spam by mail.com, so it looked I was sending spam myself.

I wrote to them very indignantly to explain and they opened the account again.

The Lad sent Cammy this:

Quote:

When Cammy replied, his original message had mutated...

This happened a few times more, until the Lad realised that Cammy had sent the money to another guyman. They dropped out - but then a new Lad told Cammy that there was $850,000 in Benin. Negotations followed, and then:

Quote:

Attached to Cammy's reply was this version of the Lad's message:

After that happened three more times, the Lad lost patience and reported the L0e Jide0ff0r account.

So actually the first group lost $5700 and did nothing about it - the second bunch lost $370 and took action. Go figure!
