A PM Asking For Financial Assistance
 
I received a PM from a Nurse1208321 asking for financial assistance for their education. I have not opened it, should I delete it?

Ya know, I live in terrible regret, knowing that I'd be incredibly wealthy now, if only I had helped that Nigerian fellow. Sigh.

I tend to open everything sent to me, and click on every link, as well as hitting any "accept" button offered. When asked for a checking account number, I gladly give it (someone's anyways).

You know, there is a whole sport that revolves around playing around with these Nigerian scammers. I forget the web site but they have a Wall of Fame where the players post pictures that they have gotten of their scammers doing crazy things and holding funny pictures.

As far as I know PMs are not a source of viruses or spyware. Attachments like word files could contain an embedded file that is a virus or spyware or such. I don't know how the system is set up for that.

But just opening a PM does not affect you.

I would totally delete it. I never even open forwarded mail from my friends. LOL! I tell them that I don't and they keep asking - Did you get that piece that I forwarded you? :toofunny

I guess it would do me good to visit this place more than twice a month, eh?

And I thought she was seriously needing money, you know, being a nurse and all. We are the poorest of the working poor.

Wonder if my check cleared yet........

I once thought it would be a funny radio bit to play around with these guys, so I did for about a week. Well, our station received a virus that shut us down for 2 days...I stopped messin' with them!!!
