Another new "PayPal" scam via email...
Mike C replied to Ace-Garageguy's topic in The Off-Topic Lounge
Yeah, I get these scam emails for "payment didn't go through" for accounts I don't even have on payments that were never made except for Netflix. But I know the Netflix ones are scams too. -

Mike C replied to Ace-Garageguy's topic in The Off-Topic Lounge
Whenever I get any suspected scam emails like that I always log in from my own web browser's bookmark and log in that way to verify it. -

Here's something I forgot about that happens to me, not anything bad but: Years ago I lived in Griffin Ga. I moved away when I found a new job in S. FL. That was about 2005. I was able to temporarily move into my parent's house until I found my own place. So I used my parent's address as my forwarding address. So a year after that I received a refund check of $50 from the electric utility in Griffin, GA. Nice, I thought that would be the end of it. But they still keep sending me refund checks to my parent's house which my mom just sends them to me. I recently got a $25 check from them a few months ago. Nothing to complain about but it sure is strange.

My girlfriend gets these dividend checks from GE, they are usually for amounts like around a nickel, maybe 15 cents. It sure costs more for processing them then the actual amount.

De-laminating windshield ideas needed
Mike C replied to johnyrotten's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
Since that's just flat clear plastic, maybe you can cut your own pieces and make your own laminate, only mask off the ends when gluing together and actually making delaminated "glass". It's just an idea, I've never done it myself and don't know how feasible it might be. -

Back in the 80's I used to race 1/8 on road nitro cars. I started with an Associated 500 and moved to a Serpent Excel. Those were fun days and expensive. You can see that is a well raced body. About 20 years ago I raced a 1/10 Losi XXX-NT: About 13 years ago I bashed a 1/5 HPI Baja 5B:

Congratulations on your grandchild. My birthday is also 12/20 but in 1954. It sucks being a December baby.

I get these phony Netflix scam emails saying that my payment has been declined. Well at least I have a Netflix account. But I still am getting Netflix. Anyway I also get them from Sirius XM which I don't have an account with. These scams are easy to spot, just look at their email addresses. Here's that other one I just mentions.

I bought a few items from them, never had a problem.

I only use my home PC. My bank knows where I'm logging in from. Even if some hacker had my user name and password if they attempted to log on somewhere else my bank will email me. In fact I had installed a new browser on my PC and when I went to log in I got an email from them to verify that it was me. One time there was some bozo that had my username. But he still couldn't get in. After five failures I had to reset my password. After this happened twice I called the bank. They told me to change my username too, so I did and this hasn't happened anymore.

I once saw some video online of a Mercedes Benz EV in a parking garage go up in flames.

There are other types of wasps that use other bugs for their larva, the cicada and cockroaches are also "victimized" this way.
