SPAM at Electrobel???
Help neededJust take a look at what I just received in my Electrbel Personal Mail box:
Madam Abigel Kabila Tel:225 05-80-59-64 Introduction. My Dear,
It is my pleasure to contact you for a business venture which I and my Son Mack,intend to establish in your country.
Though I have not met with you before but I believe one has to risk confiding in succeed sometimes in life.
There is this huge amount of Eigtheen million U.S dollars($18,000,000.00) which my late Husband kept for us with a Security Company in Abidjan before he was assasinated by unknown persons.Now I and my son decided to invest these money in your country or anywhere safe enough outside Africa for security and political reasons.We want you to help us claim and retrieve these fund from the Security company and transfer it into your personal account in your country for investment purposes on these areas:
1). Telecommunication 2). the transport industry 3). Five star hotel
If you can be of an assistance to us we will be pleased to offer to you 10% Of the total fund.
I await your soonest response.
Respectfully yours, Mrs. Abigel Kabila.

How is that f****ing possible??
Zark, can you cancel that "abi000" account, please!!
Sh*t, we must secure this a bit more!!

Got the same thing. Thought it was pretty funny to see a "nigerian scam" mail in my electrobel mailbox. I dont know why they would even think they'd get a response here.
weirdest is :
host-213-136-112-13.afnet.net [213.136.112.13]
that's where it comes from !! and that's in .. yup .. Abidjan ... is all that story true ?
Anyone who knows something about computers can reroute his ip, so that's not that special. I don't even doubt it's a scam.
also received an offer from a guy in nigeria who wants to buy 450 electrobel tshirts ......
why can't they just leave us alone :'(
maybe the guy from nigeria is starting a whole new sportschool with the name electrobel??? Let him pay and send it up!!!

thats where they make cheap tshirts ;) totally illogical for him to buy them here + send them over ... i deleted the mail, don't want to have nothing to do with all that
mmm, 18 million $... sound interesting... LOL
Well hell, no place on the internet is safe from spammail anymore. It's really a pitty. I'm so sick of them, but there just is no way to stop it ( i once had a record of +/- 500 spams per day!!! so i let my mailbox get full and kept it that way for a moment, and afterwards the spamming stopped for some time... not for long anyway, the f***ers ).
Isn't there a way to hack these guys' computers and let their HD crash and their screens implode or something? That would be fun...
The new, popular tactic for spammers is making themselves members of forums and putting links in their profile. I don't see the point.
