I also get mails from girls saying that they are looking for friendships and so on.Ultimately,they will ask you to send some money towards processing charges and so on.The best policy is to ignore mails from those whom you do not know well.If it is some one close to us,they would definitely call us. I also received a call to my mobile,saying that it was from the telephone company and I had won 20 thousand dirhams.When I mentioned it at the hospital,every one started laughing,because most of them had received similar calls earlier than me.dr.antonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16191095888228061156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7108332737182280632.post-42589487522727283202010-08-04T17:32:12.505+05:302010-08-04T17:32:12.505+05:30My turn today - for the punch in the stomach, but ...My turn today - for the punch in the stomach, but I must say this post of yours had me prepared. <br />I got an identical mail supposedly from a former classmate at MIT Chennai, and the 'victim' realised it early and followed up with a cautionary / explanatory / apologetic mail.Swarnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01623334723468773313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7108332737182280632.post-51480744185541055302010-07-23T01:24:40.264+05:302010-07-23T01:24:40.264+05:30wow madame... you're doing good!!! learning th...wow madame... you're doing good!!! learning the bad things that can happen so that you can be safe nice !!!Murthyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01596053368620649701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7108332737182280632.post-41066658081271999672010-07-22T11:38:48.263+05:302010-07-22T11:38:48.263+05:30More than one lesson - on hacking, and on spreadin...More than one lesson - on hacking, and on spreading spam.

What a blessing. <br /><br />Sadly muggings and robberies do happen in most cities. I was robbed in London on the Tube luckily it was my purse and not my handbag that was taken. A lovely London bobby took me to the nearest bank and I managed to get cash there to get me home. <br /><br />My husband who was carrying my grandson was nearly robbed in Barcelona by a very young lad. Luckily my son in law saw what was happening and grabbed him. Not very nice and it can spoil your whole holiday.Winifredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12415302188575538163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7108332737182280632.post-36044520828781598292010-07-18T23:57:44.359+05:302010-07-18T23:57:44.359+05:30I got a mail with more or less the same lines a mo...I got a mail with more or less the same lines a month back.. it was past midnight and I knew there was no chance of the sender being at the said place at the said moment. but it was alarming, all the same..Gauri Gharpurehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09887888023298949657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7108332737182280632.post-25959272229894836392010-07-18T22:00:33.901+05:302010-07-18T22:00:33.901+05:30i get almost everyday mails saying that someone ha...i get almost everyday mails saying that someone has left a will for me in South Africa for me;)etc etc.<br />The sad thing is sometimes ppl do fall in to those traps.Meera's Worldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09595039881196315514noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7108332737182280632.post-59887321028988142832010-07-18T21:55:44.223+05:302010-07-18T21:55:44.223+05:30Being British I would like to say we're not al...Being British I would like to say we're not all like those people who mugged you , I apologise for my fellow country person's bad behaviour, I am disgusted that you should be treated this way.<br /><br />What more can I say Raji?<br />Take care.<br />Yvonne.RHYTHM AND RHYMEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11386975261804630799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7108332737182280632.post-71991298116386420152010-07-18T21:17:13.733+05:302010-07-18T21:17:13.733+05:30I had heard of such occurances before and received...I had heard of such occurances before and received such a mail once on behalf of a blogger friend...i wrote to her...and she put a note on blog, <br /><br />wishes, <br />devikaDevika Jyothihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02349153846127145464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7108332737182280632.post-76260659731577792522010-07-18T19:39:42.345+05:302010-07-18T19:39:42.345+05:30A lesson to learn for all.A lesson to learn for all.Indranihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13097788106899971708noreply@blogger.com
