You ever get a PM that sounds too good to be true?

[Mr. Can Am Garage]

Has anyone got a PM like this?

"I would like to send you an email to see if would like to help me out with some testing of automotive paint. All I need is your email address so I can send you some infomation about."

If all they wanted was for you to help test some paint, they can send the info via PM!

Obviously what they really want is your email address.

Hmm, could that be some "Nigerian Paint" ??

[MAGNUM4342]

Nah! It's "Victim's relief fund" paint! My advice? Delete the message and move on.

I received the same one about a week ago and simply deleted it.

Now, if they wanted to send it to you , wouldn't they want your address as well, I am little confused here, you are meaning private message correct?, not getting this by email?

[Danno]

It's electronic paint!

They can send it right to your email address ... and everyone in your address book ... and everyone in their address books ... and everyone in those address books ... and then everybody in the whole wide world is gonna be all kinds of hacked off at the poor guy who sent them his email address in the first place.

Instead of all that, let me tell you how you can help Nebukaneezwer Smith with his big problem at the Nigerian Bank where all he needs is your bank account number and password plus $75 and then he'll send you a million dollars US to do with as you please because it will really help him with his tax problems back home ...
