veilside z Posted April 14, 2015 Posted April 14, 2015 (edited) I just opened my mail to check my messages, and found the below content. I wonder how many more of these are circulating . Should i play along or just delete. Mmm ... Anyone after a pen pal on here? From: Elena (mjb739yyat@bmicos.com) Microsoft SmartScreen classified this message as junk. Sent: 14 April 2015 11:36:27 Good afternoon my dear friend! I am the beginner in the Internet also was the first attempt to find friends in the Internet. I feel slightly uncertainly. I was registered on this site and found your structure. It is interesting to me to learn you closer. I have overlooked to speak you about myself. My name Elena and I am 26 years. I live in small city of Russia. I hope that it does not frighten you. My opinion has no value for you, but I want that you knew that I have only the good relation to you and your country. I want that you wrote to me on my personal address - adosyqyfase@yandex.ru I shall hope that you write to me very soon. I shall send necessarily to you my some photos when you will write to me! And I also want to see your photos. I sincerely wait for your letter. Do not overlook adosyqyfase@yandex.ru Sincerely yours Elena Edited April 14, 2015 by veilside z Quote
plebpl Posted April 14, 2015 Posted April 14, 2015 A lot of the time these sort of emails are information phishing. By replying you give away a lot of information such as your IP and from that your rough location, and they will also know that your account is active meaning you may receive a lot more spam. I honestly do not think its worth it just delete and forget about it. Quote

Adrian@TORQEN Posted April 14, 2015 Posted April 14, 2015 I don't get this kind of emails, Postfix + ClamAV + SpamAssassin do a great job in stopping them Quote
Mudman Posted April 14, 2015 Posted April 14, 2015 Elena - you slapper ! how could you do this to me ? 2 other guys and that's just this forum Quote

ioneabee Posted April 14, 2015 Posted April 14, 2015 I wonder what the percentage "genuine" response is (excluding those that just want to play with the troll) Quote
Fodder Posted April 14, 2015 Posted April 14, 2015 I wonder what the percentage "genuine" response is (excluding those that just want to play with the troll) Seems People do bite quite quickly though... Phishing catches victims 'in minutes' http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-32285433 I hardly ever get stuff like this. I follow a few simple rules which include: when providing my email address I read the t&c's carefully and ensure I'm opted out of any marketing. Never open links from unreliable sources, if it's from a financial institute I do business with I will always go via the official website and not any links. Never publish my email address on public facing sites such as forums I honestly don't know how you guys all seem to have these problems Quote

That's why Adrian has so many filtration measures in place with the amount of surfing he does Quote
Adrian@TORQEN Posted April 14, 2015 Posted April 14, 2015 Neah, I'm mostly on youporn dot com... Not clicking any adverts, just videos. Luckily I have Siri to help me tying here, as I got both hands busy... 1 Quote
