Well, I received another e-mail supposedly coming from U.S. Bank.

I know it is a spoof because, as you may recall, I do not have an account with that bank. Never have. I also have gotten two supposedly coming from CitiBank, which, again, I do not have an account with, and never have.

Also they misspelled appreciate and didn't put spaces between a period at the end of a sentence and the next word, though that could happen in a normal e-mail, in a couple of spots.

If they would send me an e-mail from the banks I do use I may fall for it, but I would go to their on-line pages, that I have bookmarked, and check on my account there.

Of course this e-mail was sent to the fraud department at U.S. Bank and the feds.

I can keep playing this game as long as they want. Keep sending me those spoofs from banks and I'll keep reporting you. :=3

Ya know, it's sooo lame, I just can't believe people are stoopid enough to fall for that crap... Go figure.

CYa!

I had wanted to go to MFM, which is the same weekend, but due to finances not being where I need them to be that is out, as would DC.

Have fun, as it would've been nice to meet up with you and Scott again.

I am getting them too. I have actually back traced them to Bangladesh and the Pacific rim, and forwarded them to the proper authorities as well.

Pain in the butt, but I noticed that I don't get them except from sources I do not have an account with.
