 Just entered my email tonight and apart from about 20 or so telling me how easy it would be for me to be awarded a Diploma in what ever I wanted, or that I am a bald man needing Viagra by the ton  I got this one please nobody reply to it if you get a similar one.  It stated that as part of a regular security check I needed to confirm my email address and t do that I was to reply with ,=my password so they could do that check. YEH RIGHT My reply begins with the letter F and also ends with it. Be warned.

I get them regular from Alliance and Leicester or Bank of Scotland. The weird thing is I'm not even with them.

Not so strange as they don't come from the Bank - most probably Nigeria!

I get these now and again as well, the trick is not to reply and to set up your spam settings - they will then go straight in to your junk mail folder. You could also pass them to whichever bank they supposedly come from as they all have a department which investigates these spoof emails.

I think we all suffer from these from time to time. I always check the scams out on www.snopes.com They have alwasy had reliable information on whether such e-mails are hoaxes, viruses etc |
