theonlyski 8 #4 November 16, 2013 I get plenty of these emails from PayPal, Bank of America and such. PayPal doesn't have this email address and I don't have any BoA accounts... pretty easy to tell they're fake even without opening!"I may be a dirty pirate hooker...but I'm not about to go stand on the corner." iluvtofly DPH -7, TDS 578, Muff 5153, SCR 14890 I'm an asshole, and I approve this message Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
