Hi.

There isn't much to do with this but delete it or forward it on whatever entitiy it is spoofing.

It isn't baitable and isn't AFF

Yeah, I agree, and that's what makes it a weird one. There's no company or service 'name' mentioned anywhere in the message. I don't see how one like this is "baitable", but thought I'd post it for posterity. If the mods wish to delete it from the forum, I don't see how anything would be lost.

btw.....I'm afraid I'm not familair with all the acronyms...what's AFF?

Ah, I was thinking it was in the XXXX'd links; It's just a blanket one then.

We can keep it here for google searches.

AFF- Advanced Fee Fraud. Very Happy
