Just a couple of more spam hoaxes to share, in the hope that I may spare some gullible little old lady some grief as a result of falling for one of these attempts to get sensitive personal information from people. Personally, anyone who believes that a message from a legitimate institution, whether of government or of finance, would be entitled (in all capital letters) “KINDLY GET BACK WITH THE BANK IMMEDIATELY!!!!”, needs to learn their lesson the hard way. So does anyone who thinks a ‘Senate President’ named David Mark would write to them about an official matter from the e-mail address “[email protected]”. But just to be clear, the two messages I’ve included below are hoaxes and if you send personal information to these individuals or anyone else asking you to do so, you will end up losing money one way or another. Don’t do it!
