I get several e-mails similar to this every week.
They are getting to be so common that you would
think nobody would fall for it anymore. But I guess it only takes one.

I agree Billy. Someone has hacked Rene's
account and trying to scam all of those in her
address book. I've forward a copy of this to
INTERPOL and let them deal with the hacker. I
hope no one else falls for this.
Best Wishes
