This is a very interesting piece. The fraud that really scares us the most is the fraud in which one receives an email from an email address that appears that it’s from a respected company etc.

I constantly get emails that appear to be from JP Morgan Chase. It’s really scary.

I’d love to know how many people actually get ripped off by these scams every year.

This is good Info

I get a lot of emails from Ebay that ” we need to secure your account” and also I recieve a couple of emails from the goverment and all of them are “caca”. Just delete those emails.

This is the latest of the scam email that I received 23 August 2007.
