I've got a lad who just dropped an enticing email my way from a yahoo.co.pj address. With a "reply to" address of a yahoo.co.uk.

Normal that these guys do this?

Yep.

You can make Yahoo email extensions say that you are from any country you want to; the lads do this often. If you check the headers the IP will give you a better idea as to where your lad actually is.

Yes, absolutely!

These guys are sometimes organised and use one address for mass mail outs to prospective victims and one for the actual victims (or baiters Twisted Evil ) who have responded!

It's quite normal for this to happen... I also suggest that if you have started baiting to do the same. One for catching the scum and one for baiting the scum!

Regards

NTBS!!! Very Happy

The lads find asian yahoo useful, because they can mass-mail "My email address has changed to this one" mails. Because that message is sent in Japanese the victim can only read the bits that the lad adds - which is of course his format:

Means "I have changed to a new mail address - my new address is ...." Probably automatically generated by the Yahoo system
