you gotta be kidding me. Where did you get this? here or in your private` email. if it was your private email then someone you gave it to was a scammer. if from here than what profile? First off this site is very explicit about telling you that "NO MONEY" is involved with it. And look at the aol address. And it is signed by someone that worked for pepsi? I would report it. Just because it is here means nothing. You should report this to CS. lots of things wrong with this. I guess one more reason not to give out your email....kinda really sucks though. It is almost to the point that everything online is a scam or some user loser. Very sad indeed.

I'm not sure if I've had that exact one, but certainly others similar, or along a similar vein of scamming technique.

I got it here; in my mailbox from here. I followed your advice and reported it to see if the woman signing at the end of the letter is a CS staff member or not.

you mean it was from CS Staff? or just some random profile? That is one I have not seen in the 5 plus years I have been here....Maybe you should get a prize of sorts. Not sure what kind..maybe a Plaque or something. Seems a little unfair after getting peoples hope up and everything. I guess it is good that it was not in your private email...if so I would have suggested that you change your password fast. Thanks for sharing that one.

LOL, I never saw one like that. I am always too busy deleting the other ones. But no, I was just kidding at that point. But I will admit that I have met some pretty convincing scammers before. One I did not even know until much latter. I do know they were fake but I guess I had nothing to offer. Now that is pretty bad when the scammers even reject you. LOL> wow
