Yeah It applies to me. I sold a .15 rigger about a year ago to a Nikko something or another in Chicago. He got the boat told Paypal he didn't receive it and they took the money from my account to Pay him back. I got burned thank God it was only for $100 bucks and not $1000.

Hey Jabberjaw............er..........Gene (yea, yea Gene...thats it)

In got that notice too. And I saw a two paragraph newspaper article about it.

Did you get this one??

About a month ago, I got another e-mail saying that someone had tried to use my paypal account and I needed to re-enter all my personal and bank info. The e-mail had the Paypal logo and the same background you see when you access your account. Looked absolutely real!! but i noticed it didn't have that little "secured connection" icon at the lower right corner of the screen.

Turned out to be totally bogus.....When you clicked the link on the e-mail, you could trace the path back to a web page some guy posted his pet's pictures on.

Evevyone should know that idenity theft is a very real problem. It can happen without you knowing about it. Someone got my credit card info and tried to buy $3000.00 worth of Bibles to be shipped to somewhere in South America. The thieving, evangelist-wannabe almost got away with it.

O.K ............I'll put the soap box away now.............
