It would be a bit unkind to point out that anyone reading your contributions on here would maybe think you were easily conned.

So I won’t.

Thank you Fats.

I used Facebook for advertising - one time only. The hackers set up a false sportswear company and used my bank account to pay for FB advertising. How they created a false credit card and tied it to me is beyond my reckoning.

Thanks.

I often think that criminals who think up fraud schemes like this ought to be capable of making an honest living.

Haha. I have had this one daily for about 18 months that goes straight to spam. I wonder if I drop my details down they will back date?

You lot must have had bad luck. The other day a very nice lady phoned me to tell me I had won half a million pounds on the Nigerian lottery. She explained that to get the cash, because it was overseas I had to pay a £500 administration fee so they could send me my winnings. Bearing in mind the prize, I thought that was very reasonable so I gave her my bank details. Looks like we'll be having a good Christmas.

These scams used to annoy me, and I would feel sympathy for any unwary victims. Nowadays they tend to amuse me, whenever I get one I just click "add sender's domain to blocked senders list". Every few days I have a glance through them and have a chuckle at what they seem to offer.

I do sometimes wonder if the Russian blonde who was desperate to meet me was genuine though.

And by the way, don't fall for those emails offering tablets that make your nob bigger - none of them work!

So I'm told.

They do work if you're a little slack to start with.
