  • Hi Fatima, thanks so much for your offer, but it's all sorted now. Best, Eric.

  • The procedure is called "phishing" and takes various forms, but all follows the same description. They claim to be some person or company and always ask you to verify your account information by typing it in, usually followed by an ultimatum.

    As a result, authentic companies or organizations will never ask you for you to verify or to re-enter your account information.

    I'd also like to point out that any links they provide should be verily scrutinized, as they will mimic well-known sites.

  • Hi snakexdude11, thanks for posting, Eric.

  • Poor guy, fucking nigerians scamming old people for no reason, whats the point of doing that?

  • Hi Sustanon20, thanks for posting. Actually I don't think the scammers are particularly age discriminatory, unlike the UK in general, I think they target anybody. Best, ERic.

  • The best thing you can do, is change your password every week, that is what I did after my account was hijacked

  • @tenrecords - You are so right about scam's, anywhere were their is a scam coming out from a foreign country is usually from Lagos Nigeria. What Pll need to do is to write a letter to attorney general's office or go in person to you F.B.I. offices and report thier Ugly balck ass. Bureau of Investigation and Intelligence  Attorney General's Office Division of Law Enforcement 1+916+319-9070

  • i would have emailed hotmail from another account tod them whats happened and ask them to fix problem and then i would have sent a nuke to nigeria first class

  • Typical Nigerians the most dishonest people on earth, whenever there is a scam you can bet they are involved.

  • i got this e-mail as well.....i did not fill it out because i just thought it was wrong.

  • I fell for this too. However it was stating I was in London and needed 1900. I had to email hotmail and do a verification of my information. I couldn't do a password reset as they had changed my password and all my information. They also had my facebook account disabled becuase they were asking those people for money too. THESE PEOPLE ARE ASSHOLES. I am so ashamed I fell for it. I had doubts but the email looked legit as it had the hotmail signature on it.

  • elat100 i know what you won on your email. you won a big fat nothing. lol. scammers these days

  • Duh just open a new account and NEVER USE YOUR REAL NAME TO OPEN A PUBLIC DOMAIN E-MAIL account like Hotmail.yahoo.g-mail etc.

  • okie sure if u want any help let me know\

    :)

    Peace and love

    Fatima
