You're right. What was I thinking? This is the second request I have
received from Forum members this morning. Go ahead. Send me your bank
account numbers. I'll make deposits into your accounts today.
Your friend,
Rick
PS
What's Joycelyn's address in Kyiv, Ukraine (are you sure that's in the
Phillipines?).

Rick,
You are indeed lucky, but also I would think conscience-bound to send half
of it to Jocelyn, who is (as far as I know) still stranded in Kyiv, Ukraine
(that's in the Phillipines).
Think of those less fortunate.
Ben

Yes, these Internet hackers can be dangerous. I on the other hand lucked out
when I answered a Nigerian prince's email request. He said he was a Mark
Twain fan. His country is in turmoil and he needed a place to store several
million dollars for a short time. He seemed like a nice guy and he promised
me a HUGE gift for this small favor. I gave him my bank account numbers and
now, this morning, I am going to the bank to pick up my check for
$3,000,000.00! Isn't that amazing? So the lesson here is sometimes you can
trust these Internet things and sometimes you can't. I guess I'm just the
lucky one.

If you ever receive a message from a friend that has nothing but an intern=
et link=2C that is also a sign that your friend's email has been hacked. A=
friend will usually tell you what a url leads to or mention why s/he sent =
it.
The hackers are active. Last week=2C I received 4 of those and when I conta=
cted my friends=2C every one of them had been hacked.
When your email server asks you for a second email address or cell phone nu=
mber so you can be contacted by another means=2C be sure to enter one. Whe=
n I was hacked=2C the person changed my email password=2C so the only way I=
had to contact my server was through a separate email account.
I changed my password to 16 digits (the longest my server will allow) of ra=
ndom letters=2C numbers and symbols ----haven't had a problem since.=20
