Attack Fell Terrier 864 Posted September 30, 2010 Report Share Posted September 30, 2010 If you're thick enough to fall for some of these scams then you've got no one to blame but yourself. Stupid fat old slags baying like a slut in heat over a big black African over the net, and then they end up in tears and distraught when they've handed over all the money their late hard working husband left them. Boo f*cking Hoo!!! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lee85 44 Posted September 30, 2010 Report Share Posted September 30, 2010 My wife and I had a huge row last night, she called me gullible and said I was "financially irresponsible." I can't wait to see her face when I tell her I've just won the nigerian lottery. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CarraghsGem 92 Posted September 30, 2010 Report Share Posted September 30, 2010 (edited) a lot of forged euro notes around at moment, mostly 50's but some 20's as well some were even so good that they got into the banks un-noticed for a short while.

dare 1,103 Posted October 1, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2010 Had been offerd a few fake notes before. Id love to know how they get whats actually needed to make em. Aside from the emails about money has anyone ever been given a link to a phisher site? Think i spelt it correct basicly a duplicated page of a website for you to log into and details are fowarded to the scammer. Watching the real hustle deffiantly amazes me to see how thick some are. Thing is i know of one time i was scammed and sure been others. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

neil r 1,953 Posted October 1, 2010 Report Share Posted October 1, 2010 I sold some fishing gear in the loot earlier this year and i got an email asking to buy the rod of me . The wording of it seemed bizzare , like it was done by someone copying english from a dictionary , so i told them id arranged to sell it already . They then sent another back saying they would give me double the price but i would have to give them my name , address , phone number and bank details so they could deposit $2000 dollars in my account (the rod was £50) and once in , i could take the £100 out and send the rest back to them . It was either a rubbish attempt at money laundering or an even worse attempt at a scam either way it makes you wonder what kind of halfwit falls for this kind of stuff.
