SCAM letter in my private mail box!

sara zata · Guru

We've heard about them too, just throw them in the bin. My daughter keeps getting calls to say to go straight to her computer as tthere is a problem, as we know this to be a scam, she flips and swears at them, while on the other hand my niece keeps them on the phone feeding them that she has her comp on and yes she is doing that and NO nothing is working they say try this and she says yes, I've done that and nothing is happening , meanwhile she hasn't even her comp on. but she goes along with and then says, well looks like you can't help me, I'll have to take it to my comp bloke. All the time wasting their phone call. LOL. XXXXX June.

Hi hun, glad to see you back.
Yes, as June said, most of us have had this scam letter in our pm. It was just a random thing. Apparently this letter was out for many years before it hit us. We told everyone to delete it. It hasn't happened since then. No worries hun, no body got your pm addy.

You can use the search feature in forum to find out more if you want. Or... just delete it and go on.
Sorry you got that. From time to time we have some random post and I try to take care of it as soon as possible.
We are not invincible here, just family trying to keep out skum. :)

I just logged back in after a couple of months and had this same private mail in my inbox. It looked suspicious, so I automatically deleted it. I hate scam mail, it really irritates me! grr!

Ya, all we can do is just delete them and try to forget they were there. I hate scam mail too. Those people need a life!
Just as long as no one clicks on any links or calls any numbers!
