I created two catch accounts and did a little fishing on guestbooks over the weekend so I'm starting to get some hits on both of them. Many are duplicates, sent to both accounts, but I've had to laugh at several from someone who clearly doesn't understand the difference between BCC and CC. Each of those emails, which are supposedly confidential to me only because I am so trustworthy and special, come with a list of 50 email addresses displayed next to TO: at the top. Mine are somewhere in the middle. I don't think they're going to get a lot of takers. Confused

Are you sure they're scam emails or just spam? The reason I ask is that I get a lot of spam with several emails in the CC area, including mine.

Now if it is a full fledged 419, bridescam, etc... I'd like a look-see at those letters if ya don't mind.

I'm sending you a PM...

I got one too a little while back, where there were lots (10?) names similar to my gmail address. I'm not sure if i have the original email now.

Please PM the full e-mail with headders and the other people's e-mail addresses to a mod so they can warn any potential real victims.

Please don't necro old threads. The last post to this thread before yours was on November 5, 2007.

Please read the 419 EATER FORUM RULES AND F.A.Q. sticky:

Quote:

Please avoid thread necromancy (that is: posting in a thread that has been inactive for several months to bump it back to the top again). Old threads have usually little relevance anymore. Also, members that posted in it may not be around anymore. If you really want to bring up an old discussion again because you have something of value to add, post a new thread and put a link in it to the old thread. That way people do not have to read through all the old posts to see what is new.

Thanks!
