Re: OT Beware of Spammers/Phishers

I am nearly downright hostile toward any email that comes from an unknown
source. As a matter of fact, I'm suspicious of email that 'seems' to come
from a known source. About once a week, I get something in from ebay or
Earthlink that might or might not be legitimate. My new keyboard has 3
delete keys. I use them a lot. I wish I knew what the other buttons are
for. Polly

Had a couple of emails that nearly caught me - one from Recipes Galore and
the other from some other site (Buyers heaven or some such place) thanking
me for signing up and giving me "my" user name/password and login and
telling me to click the link to change my details.

Upon checking my very rusty brain particles I realised that I hadn't
signed up for anything and it was just another silly phishing episode by
some poor, lonely soul.

Be careful those of you who are prone (like I am) to blonde/senior/vague
moments....

This has been another community service announcement
