Good Holy person on a bike!!!
When will these scammers just F.........GO AWAY!!!

This morning I recieved just such a scam message form some guy in Africa posing as "Steve" saying my photo had been selected by beautylinks london for a billboard advertising coca cola at Heathrow airport!! ROFLMAO!!!!
Basically this scam works by them asking you first to email them privatly and not on myspace, and them they email you a fake cheque for say $3,000 of which you keep 20% and then you transfere the rest of the money back to them via Western Union!!...it also works by praying on peoples ego's!!...Fortunatly I dont have an ego! I have no reason to have one...but what if this half convincing scam message was sent to some 15 year old would be starlet? They would almost certainly be taken in!
Sorry but I have no other words to describe these scammers but EVIL BASTARDS!!
Anyway, I am a wise in the ways of the world, old bird and spotted it as a scam immiediatly and marked it as spam on myspace. Doing this stops the email they have given being used to pray on other people on myspace. But they operate on other networking sites such as facebook (which I hardly use as its too complicated and I think all that super poke thing is just a bit childish) and Bebo and probabally other places too! One way to spot a scam though is too look at the spelling and grammer which will usually be dreadful (a bit like mine! LOL) and they will often try to cover this up by using internet abbrievations such as U (for you) Remember for the scammers, English is their second language! and secondly the "realistic" content! like why on earth would coca cola want to use a pic of a 41 year old woman with spots and middle age spread!??? its so bad its almost laughable! But no, I shouldent laugh because there are thousands of young boy or girl starletts out there who would be very vulnerable to this kind of thing, so I thought I had better blog it so other young people could be aware that these are evil people out there who are praying on your dreams and ambitions...........

In other news Mum hacked me off yesterday by dragging me into town under false pretences saying she had shopping to do, which I thought well I better go and help her out with it...Anyway, when I got to the bus station she had already done her shopping and her pull along trolly was stuffed full to the brim and weighed a ton!! "So where do you want to go then?" I had asked a bit bemused "Whereever!" she replied, unhelpfully. So we just ended up having lunch and I took her to TK Max where I ended up pulling her megga heavy trolly for her and almost pulled my arm out of the socket!...AND I have to go back to town today as I have a forgotton parcel to post, and I have to take a DVD back to HMV (which I bought yesterday) as the assistant had not removed the red "box tag". These box tags are horrible!!! and can only be removed by a magnetic gun thingy!! The red plastic thing goes right across the CD inside the box, so if you try to remove it yourself you will damage the disc so badly it will be unplayable!!...well I aint going anywhere yet as the weather is blowing a veritable storm outside (no snow though) but its set to clear by lunchtime so I will go back to town then!
