I wanted to contribute to this report as a neutral witness more or less, but a bit annoyed. My story is this:
a)
I received an email directed to my spam account today from some guy named Chris J.
The subject line read, "Chris is disturbing you...". That was the 1st red flag. Minor, but significant; he could have said, "A moment of your time, if you will". (More improved marketing!)
b) Here's the words "Chris" wrote:
Hey...Where are you? this is chris...i want to tell you
abt one website i've seen a few days ago and i won some nice products on it..
"this is it, click here so u can access it."<---(phrase linked to the website)
tell me what u think abt it...chris
Now I've never met this guy, don't know him from Adam, but he types like we're old
buddies. Plus, his email has an aol extension. How many people still use aol today?
Not many.
c) Last thing: I tried to respond to his email but got back that
[email protected] response, with a failure notice in the subject line. Bogus email? I don't know, but if the email is suspicious, than my guess is the fantasticbids.com is too.
Bidder Beware.
