And he was still typing as I closed out the im.

Notice how whe I said he was doing okay on the pc he all of a sudden started making mistakes? Hmmmm. Don't you think he was a potential scammer? I do.

Whack job Block him

Heard (vaguely) about a scam (orig. Ghana) about....

-Distant forgotten relative
-Missionary in Africa
-Claim their inheritance

etc., etc. It goes on from there. Sorry details so vague. Remember a passing news story.

You can go into your yahoo options and enable the block for any not on your userlist - That's what I'd recommend. You can then add any you wish to speak to without outside interference rambling on about asking if you are male or female, as this clown did.
