New Scam

Post by david63 »

I see that the scammers who used to email you saying that you have been watching porn have moved on and are now saying that unless you make a donation in support of Ukraine they will do whatever.

Have these people no morals whatsoever? (no need to answer)

I've had several without the Ukraine angle....
I've tried to come up with outrageous responses, some of which I posted over @ my site...
One response was that I was happy that they were a fan of my porn videos, and offered to let him have a role on my next flick (I was in need of somebody to play "Cabin boy"), and asked if he had any special talents "we" might want to write into the script......

no response....

Trouble is that lets them know it's a working email address and you'll just get a ton more.

which will probably get posted along with my response if the e-nail doeesnt bounce....
I get a lot of E-mails for a catalog, wanting to buy my product for a 30 percent down with the balance paid against the bill of lading.

I usually tell them that I specialize in B.S., that theres no catalog, it's free for the taking, to order online through the site....

When I wrote "kindly reply urgently for more details" I naturally meant in private and not on a public forum. The others did, so consider the offer I made as retracted. :twisted:

The Russian scammers are also at it, asking for donations to help Russians who can no longer contact their families outside of Russia.

The Russians needing Rubiles is like the mid 90s when random foreigners would knock the doors of homes that had Lada cars parked on the drive offering to buy them to ship them back to Russia.

I'm guessing that would be US English, GB English (Welsh, Scottish, Irish variants ?) Aussie English, African English (generalised), Caribbean English (there's quite a difference between Trini and Jamaican English, Indian English)
Not sure how many German languages there are ...

You should ask what other assets she has ;-)
