Give him a reason to be worried. Forward that email to [email protected] <g>

And while you are at it, don't forget to send it to [email protected] as well. Make sure you use "forward" and not "reply" to send the email.

"And while you are at it, don't forget to send it to [email protected] as well."

My ignorance is showing but what is "uce.gov"? If that will help stop this phishing emails, I'll start using it as well.

Many thanks.

I got one the other day asking for the shipping cost to a certain zip code. Now, that one was a tricky one. I went into my messages on My eBay and that one wasn't there.
