Some emails - e.g. from commercial sites, merchants, banks etc have html content and sometimes scripts. This is effectively a web page loading inside an email. In such cases, it's possible for you to be tracked or for a malicious sender to detect when a specific mail is opened. For plain text emails, there is no way the sender knows you have opened it unless you respond. Most mail clients and webmail block html by default unless you allow it so unless you enable it they are not going to know you opened the mail.

DjKraid's example above is hilarious, but unfortunately people do fall for it.

Hello,
These are all new scammers that have tried to trick me out of sending them 150 euros for a chow chow puppy to be sent from Belgium to ________ . They made up two fake travelling agencies to "send" the puppy over.
The people are located in Cameroon and when they send you e-mails they are very flattering and nice. It is usually followed by a phone call that is on a number that gets deleted shortly after or may not ever exist. 0023796481016 this is the number that they might use for you to contact them even if they use another em-mail address.

Beware of them they play with your emotions and your minds.
Thank you and Good bye world! :)

I don't bother opening any (if any) I just click their box & click spam. bye bye:D
 
#Barbarella23 - well...I guess the only thing you can do is go to the authorities :/

#learninmypc - the best line ever "Don't reply to this (or if you do just spam the living sh*t out of them)!", thumbs up for the spamming part :D
"I don't bother opening", well that's going to be a problem. When I put an ad on a site (like ebay, that I don't use btw) and some one want's to buy it there is a "reply to seller" or a "send a message" button and when someone replies "via" that button the topic on the mail is something like "RE:Nettimrakkina.com..." so if you want to get something sold then there is really only one option :/


New scammer found (once again)

So my friend is selling her caravan on

So first she got a text message (sms) asking some random stuff and also asking for an answer via e-mail, so she answered...she then some time later she got an answer:

Okay, i'm interested in the purchase but i have some questions first how long have you owned it and when last was it checked for any faults and is there any visible dent/scratch on the body? and what is your best/fixed price for it ?
> > I am making an international purchase to my home and i would handle the Transportation to Malaysia and i would be paying through PayPal as it is the fastest and easiest to make payments with my Credit Card.. Respond to me soon. Hector

The senders e-mail adr is: hectorthinks@hotmail.co.uk


Now here is a thing that's interesting...a "Kafi 540" caravan, that is in Finland / Europe...the "buyer" is in Malaysia / Asia...first, how would the delivery be made...second, if it would be delivered from Finland to Malaysia then the delivery alone would probably cost more than a completely new caravan in Malaysia...so what the f***? -I don't get it @_@


I'll try to get more "info" out of this scammer...so to be continued (this is going to be funny)...


--- And here are a few more scammers ---

These are also known for the same e-mail message as the one in this post...and then of course I also have to write what they wanted to buy...and get shipped to the other side of the world -_-

New one about Wilson Ndo Ngwo Anja

He is now using jessicanathan38 as alias!

So be warned!

He tried to get me little kittens for FREE!

I just had to pay via Western Union 180 for shipment :p

You just can't rely on people's goodness nowadays!
 
Well if you want kittens for free there are loads of them here in Finland but I don't think anyone here is willing to send them anywhere.

Anyhow, thanks for the update and lets just hope it helps someone! :)

I'm trying to sell a "Acer Aspire one" or at least I'm trying to look what I could get for one...anyhow, the add is a few weeks old and now a dude called "Mark Beckley" copy-pasted a message to me:

----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- -----

[EDIT]

Find the EDIT button & go from there. Good luck.
 
This thread was last updated...ages ago...which is good in a way even tho now I'm here again just to throw some more sh*t out. Some of my co-workers have got messages (SMS) from +447405540868 (UK) saying that they have won 750,00GBP and that they should send a some random message to "blackberryget@live.com" to claim their winnings.
First of all their numbers can't be found in any catalog and they are not listed anywhere so how the h**l have they got those messages. Then there is also this one other little thing, obvious BS, the guys use a @live.com account which is basically the same as hotmail...that's just plain stupid...

Anyways, if anyone knows any other details about that number or anything feel free to add a comment here :)

[FONT=Helvetica]Hello

Capt weiz stein[/FONT]
 
Oh this hasn't been updated in ages but it feels good that ppl still find this helpful and post their experience here also :)

I'm actually working on new pages for myself that's for the games that I sell and so on but there will be a scammer section there as well and I was planning on making a "how to spot a scammer" guide there as well. So far I only have a similar page like that but it's meant for TF2 trading.
When I'm done with the new pages I'll publish them and also put links to the pages everywhere that I can think of :p

If anyone needs any help or advice regarding this topic then feel free to post here or send me a private message or add me on steam.
 
So now I'm selling an old RAM card thingy for 12€ which...this time a guy contacted me and he wasn't that good at English but he had a Swedish phone number so for the lulz I wrote to him in Swedish. I basically just asked how he wanted to get it sent and I got this:

Thanks so much I will like to buy the item to my charting lover in
united kingdom so I will pay you 200eur for the item and the shipment
cost so will be
paying you via Bank so get back to me with you Bank detail so I can
process with the Payment asap
Note that retarded 200€ offer...really, where did that come from O_o
Anyhow, here is the e-mail adr and phone number:

(+46 = sweden ...8... = Stockholm or close by)

+[phone number removed]
[email address removed]
