That wasn't me posting aggressively or belligerently. If I was you would know.

This is more resigned annoyance than anything else.

Totally agree here - also with Bandy and Snod. That exO is just too arrogant and rude for words. Keep doing what you're doing carbooter, you're a far better person than exO is.

I didn't say anything about common sense. Personally, I can always find a place for it! But the more information there is about scams, the more commonplace common sense will be! wink

But yet you wrote the following;

Hence my "condone and even endorse," comment. Although I DID notice you later wrote;

And I fully agree with that. happy

It's neither irrelevent, nor nonsense. I have no "agenda"(?). I'm not trying to "doctor" anything(?). I did read all the posts properly and my posts make perfect sense.

Bottom line is; I don't like the idea that it's OK to kick people under the bus just because they're gullible. Some victims don't even REPORT the crime to the police because of how they're viewed for falling for it!

So let's not make it easier for the scumbags to get away with it, eh? Let's show some compassion, and save our contempt and criticism for the CRIMINALS!

I received an email last weekend purportedly from PAYPAL telling me that my details needed updating in order for my account to continue. I knew it was a phishing exercise because they hadn't addressed it to me personally. I immediately sent it to [email protected]> who within minutes confirmed that my suspicions were correct. So if you get anything like this, send it to that email address. They reckon it helps them to close these sites down.
