spam scam!!!

To Avoid scams here is what i tell people…
All spam emails/unsolicited phone calls/letters and faxes are scams.
As a general rule – ANYTHING involving Western Union/money gram = Scam.
my Advice: Don’t deal with anyone out of state or from a foreign country or Accept or cash checks from strangers and never use wire/bank transfer services.. you risk losing your $$ and your mind.
Remember, if it sounds too good
to be true, it probably is! NEVER(ever) give out your personal information to strangers online or offline! Always be on guard.

S-CHEMING
C-RAFTY
A-GGRESSIVE
M-ALICIOUS

No! It's called phishing. They want your personal info. Delete anything you receive that asks you about any personal information if you are not expecting the e-mail.

spam-spam-spam

never respond to something like this, anything that sounds to good to be true , is to good to be true, and Never give your bank information to a stranger, after all you didn’t contact this person they came after you.

rules in e-mail:
if theres NO subject in the subject line DELETE it
if you DO NOT KNOW THIS PERSON then DELETE it
and make sure you mark them SPAM
and if a e-mail has just a title in subject line and then in message are basically nothing but a attachment again DELETE and mark SPAM

if you follow these rules you will have alot less headaches and alot less spyware & virurs

It looks like a scam to me. "Himage" is indeed a real company that makes consumer electronics, but somehow I figure that they would have email addresses that didn't involve Yahoo. The fact that they're asking you for your bank information and a whole bunch of other personal stuff makes it look suspicious to me.

NO!! Do not reply, delete the message or send it to the FBI office nearest you. They will take care of it from their end.

No. The "Certified Cheques, Money Order", etc., are counterfeit. You will have to pay back the bank where you cash them and you may go to jail.
