I started using Yahoo messenger today for the heck of it...right?
I set it to "away" when I went to work, and when I came back, I had an IM from some name I didn't recognise...it just said "hello" and "are you there?"...
I figured it was some random guy saying hi...well guess what? I was wrong...as when I checked my email tonite, I got one from the same guy that messaged me, only it was one of those Nigerian scams!!!!!
Ever have a Nigerian scammer IM you??? Weird!!!
They'll do anything to get people to talk to them and sucker them into signing up for a shady bank account...
It's the first time I hear of someone getting instant messages from them, but somehow it doesn't surprise me :)
Yeah, I got one of there email scams one time. Right in the middle of reading it I knew it was fake. Also, I read some stuff of how they have actually killed people who flew over there and such. Really creepy.
The favorite is the " Do you like sex" message and then a link to a dating or porn site. if you use msn messenger you will never be disturbed by anyone... ever.
