Guest guest Posted January 18, 2006 Report Share Posted January 18, 2006 I learned a very important lesson yesterday. If or any ISP ask you to confirm any pass words or screen names yu can bet your sweet a__ it's not them asking. My ID was swiped from me and as of yet I haven't got it straightend out. I finally got to talk to a human today and be danged if he didn't tell me I had to e-mail the stuff to the security dept. I got a reply within 15 minutes and were going to get it straight. I only use to play gin and spades and for my groups. I don't use it for e-mails and didn't have to worry about losing any important info. So if any of you are asked to verify your ID or passwords tell them thanks but no thanks or better yet report it to your ISP provider.

A good lesson for everyone who reads this group -- these emails look and feel like the real thing, and it's very easy to just respond to them without thinking about it. Really glad they couldn't do anything to cause you really bad problems! better your email and groups than your bank account! Sara Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
