Today's Email Scam. 12-3-2012

 

I know you miss these blogs, but it looks like Gmail has been taking care of most of my email scams.

 

Here's an example of an email scam that Gmail caught, and when Gmail will send to notify me...


Message left on server: "FRAUD ALERT!!!"

The message "FRAUD ALERT!!!" from Robert S. Mueller III (info@fbi.org) contained a virus or a suspicious attachment. It was therefore not fetched from your account ericmichael@remerica.com and has been left on the server.

If you wish to write to Robert, just hit reply and send Robert a message.


Thanks,

The Gmail Team

Don't click on the links. They might still be "live."

I hope there is a very special place in hell for people who make these virus'...

Eric,

I suspect if the FBI wanted to communicate with me, I'd be answering a knock at the door...not an email.

Ladies, I'm sure they'll be taken care of.

Rich, don't temp them. They'll be there soon enough.
