Watch out.

This was sent to my email.

We recently have determined that different computers have logged into your PayPal account, and multiple password failures were present before the login. One of our Customer Service employees has already tryed to telephonically reach you. As our employee did not manage to reach you, this email has been sent to your notice.....

It continues to give other info. and asks for my account details.
I DON'T HAVE A PAYPAL ACCOUNT.
So a warning to those who do. If you get an email like this I think it may be a con. Beware.... And is telephonically a word anyway?



A delve into my archives and I post this.

Aoccdrnig to a rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it deosn’t mttaer in waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoatnt tihng is taht the frist and lsat ltteer be in the rghit pclae. The rset can be a taotl mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit porbelm. Tihs is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe.

Hvae a graert wekened poelpe :)

Listen, buddy, don't go spreading that Cambridge stuff around. I'm an editor, and if I lose my job because of this new finding, I'm coming to live with you. :O)

For some reason, the whole first and last letter thing doesn't bother me as much as legitimately bad spelling/grammar. Although you did such a fine job that I had a teeny bit of trouble reading it.

I've gotten the same email before. I don't have a paypal account either. I hate stupid scam people.
