On checking my emails this morning there was one from
Mrs Sandra Korjev, I binned it without opening it.
I googled the name and it's the usual " I've got millions
in the bank but need your money to get at it"
Why people send these stupid messages is beyond me,
they were exposed as scams years ago.

Hi
Because there are still gullible people out there.
Cheers

It doesn't cost anything to send out 1,000,000 emails, and if they find 1 gullible person, they are quids in.
Also so tired of getting 'Security' mails from banks/building societies I've never dealt with and never will :sleep:

I also get these from UK banks but I have a South African email address. As Malcolm said costs nothing to send out millions. There is no regard to where the recipient is.
The bank ones annoy the :censored: out of me!
I am sure that if the bank have some amazing news to tell me they know where to send the post!!
My credit card company keep sending me security emails, and emails wanting me to transfer balances, etc, all in the same basic format. Unfortunately, they also use the same format to send my monthly bill - and it is so easy to bin the bill by mistake. :doh:
