New blog and... Phishing?
Since many of you already have one, i decided... why not.
Asked for a new blog, and got one. SpeckyItchingsmile

I'm not going to make any fake promises like "I will post once a day" but I'll try to post regularly. How regularly? well, i don't know. Just don't expect once/day.

Here wee go. 1st entry.


... ...


4 days ago, at night, one of the guys that are renting out house came up to us and said that he got over $2000 'borrowed' from him over the internet. Said someone transfered it to their account...

Then he goes on about how he couldn't pay the rent and all.... Erk

Anyways, my dad asked him some questions, and it seems that he got some scam email supposedly from "the bank". And he did what it says, and guess what happened.

Wee made him pay the rent later anyway... Wis

LOL. I never expected something like this to happen so close to me.

I do internet banking and everything, but personally I have only received about 4 peices of sPa/\/\ in my whole life from email, and these come bundled with a discount deal that I applied to, and saved over $100 with (thus worth the sPa/\/\).

Being careful and signing up to random things with a special email address specifically designed to sign up for such poo poo has eliminated all sPa/\/\ for me.

He's lucky he only had $2000 in the bank...

Don't like that guy too much anyways. Since wee cover electricity and water expenses... He just decided... why not... and wastes water and electicity like crazy... my parents are real pissed off at him for doing that.

Don't know what he used. Only know what he told my dad. Probably IE6. Probably did it at the library, or work or somehing. Don't think he has internet at home. And all the libraries I know of here use IE6.
