Spam scam alert

chowcheebyespamPlease do not open any email titled ‘Check it out’ from me or your any of your acquaintances. It’s a spam scam, and this is how it works:

The body contains the text: “Sign up so we can play http://followhere01.com/go.asp?id=1&sourceid=&friend=SomeName”.

And any stupid idiots that receive that email (and I am your king) will click on that link, enter their email account details for one or more of the following services – Hotmail, Yahoo, Gmail and AOL. And yes, your majesty here entered his password for his Gmail account, and hey, presto, every single contact on his Gmail account got spammed the same spam, and if you were none the wiser, you’d have opened it, thinking that bloody Miyagi always sends nonsense so I better open it or else he’ll be mad.

So, I tell you now, don’t open ah!

The page in question is http://followhere01.com/go.asp Go have a look, its perfectly safe as long as you do not enter your details. Read thistouching blog from a poor soul who managed to get scammed. For the adventurous they also have a downloadable version of the game at http://www.playbingolive.org/download/PlayBingoLive_Install_v32.exe Don’t want to take a guess on what it could be. Some brave (or foolish) soul can install and let me know the

    Yup, got your email alright.

    Since that stupid Miyagi seldom email me, this must be something worth looking at, right? So I clicked the link.

    Nope, didn’t enter my password (my bullshit radar went off).
    They may as well ask for my ATM pin.

    Because you said don't open it, some of your readers will do just the opposite thing.
