You know, it appears stupid to us, but people actually fall for it! Scary.
This really is unbelievable isn't it?
it's remarkable that people continue to fall for stuff like this when identity theft is on the news every other day!
Scary stuff....I'm glad YOU can laugh about it!
Oh just send em' your info Kath! ;) People are idiots, which is one of the reasons why they can't spell.
All ~ I think it's extremely scary, I know people fall for this and then can't figure out how they've become victims. SAD...okay, and a tad bit funny.
I would have sent my stuff in...I believe...I believe...
I sometimes wonder if I should respond to anyone's mail.
How can these people sleep at night? Sigh.
Just came by to check on you. :)
I'm with lynilu.... these things would stop if some people wouldn't fall for this garbage.
