I don't know where else to put this but there's a lot of traffic here. Spread the word. I've just received a scam e-mail asking for money. I quote below:
(I agreed to do a favour because I knew the e-mail address)
"Thanks for your email ^^, I'm in Kharkov, Ukraine right now for a short business trip and I'm short on cash right here, I tried to access my account from the cash machines here and it's not working, I went to the bank to withdraw and I was informed that I cannot withdraw money from my account in some countries, that it's network errors, I'm thinking if I could get a quick loan of £1,450 from you or anything you can afford to loan me so that I can clear some little things here and also take a cab to the airport. I promise to refund it as soon as I get back home on Thursday, let me know so I can send you my details."
Even the way it was worded told me it was a scam. Please watch out everyone. There will probably be others.
