DELETE THE ****ER ! lol

will do.

was reading a sign in the paki shop the day about scams going on.

some guys (apparently from the jail) are foning people up claiming to be from bt checking lines and ask the person to press a certain number (that will remain nameless :wink: ) then the hash key then hang up so they know the line is ok.

wot it does is make their calls go onto ur bill for some reason. i mean we've got posters bout some guys doing swtich card fraud in my work just now but the fone things pretty genius.

if theres one thing u can say about criminals is that they're very intuitive people.

Thanks Goose! You are a nice mod. :wink: :D

Thanks!

I think people who create viruses should be subject to capital punishment. (No, not really, but beating the sh*t out of them would be nice).

aye, thing is with this one it actually could fool many people :E so I felt the need to post it here

Ive had 6 of these in the last half hour :z

I've been getting one lately supposedly from Microsoft telling me to use the attatched patch on my computer. My Norton pops up to tell me it's a virus. I've gotten it several times over the last few days. I think these people who spend their time creating viruses should do something constructive with their time, provided they don't end up in jail. Idiots.
