I might write back and ask if she shaves her moot first.

just forward them to spoof@paypal.com mate

Ya, I received couple of them a year back. I've seen scam warnings all over so I was wary especially when I saw the word 'please update' - one of the key words for detecting scammers. So what I did was to hover my cursor over their links and compare them with the ones on actual paypal site. And not surprisingly, they were different so I just ignored the emails...

You know these tech kids who invent viruses, why dont they become Robin Hoods of the cyber world and send their new viruses to all the scammers emails disguised as legit replies?

Because they are probably the same people who create the virus and do the email scams. Wankers. I end up rebooting the computer.

She sounds my type, single dying and desperate. You think I should ask her for some sex?

[Andre]

For sure, Norton protects you from all online diseases, go for it and sue them if you get anything off her.

[Master]

Safe sex over the web cam would be my preferred method
