Hey Alan - no worries there! I never get tricked by ANY of those Phishing Scams - but do get annoyed when I see them. Since, I have a mother-in-law who is very old, and hangs out on the Web - getting e-mails. And, I get worried that SHE will eventually get duped by one of them.
I remember one message - that really DID look like my Chase bank e-mails, but, I knew it was a scam. And, I even went to the webpage link - just to see how well they did at trying to fool others - and it was SCARY! Since it truly looked like the Chase website - except for the URL! Still - I was merely questioning how something like this message managed to make it to our wonderful ProFoxTech list. But, I see that Ed already looked into the issue... -K- -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Alan Bourke Sent: Tuesday, February 23, 2010 3:54 AM On Mon, 22 Feb 2010 16:27 -0500, "Kurt Wendt" <[email protected]> wrote: > How does a message like this actually make it to our mailing list?
