Hey Charlie, just curious.  What if someone caused a lot of havoc with this scam (say, Me!), and claimed that he got the idea from this post you made, but just changed the grammar slightly.  I wonder if the victims will think of suing you as well.

  received the following email.  you would think that somebody intelligent enough to concoct this scam and carry it out would be intelligent enough to use better grammar... :)

  Dear PayPal user.

  At 10.15.2003 the PayPal company has blocked a number of accounts
  in the system connected with money laundering and credit card fraud
  activity. The information in regards to those accounts has been passed
  to our corresponded banks, local and international authotities.

  Due to database operations some accounts can be lost. We are insisting
  to our clients to update their account's information.

  If you will find any presence of fraudulent activites at your account -
  let us know immediately at e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
  Don't wait until criminals will steal your money - help the authorities to
  block their accounts.

  To update your account's information please click on the link below. Thank you.
