OT -- ID Theft (paypal scams)

[Guest guest]

We get those Paypal scam phish emails all the *@% & time too. I send

every one of them to this email address--- spoof.

Aftersending about 20 of them over the last 5 weeks they FINALLY

slowed down! Also- just to be SAFE I change my Paypal passowrd every

2 months. Drives us nuts, but I guess a necessary evil now-a-days!

I think I finally got it across to Sun Bank that I don't have an account with

them. Never heard of the place until I started getting loads of phony e-mails

from them and it took at least 6 months (I think it was closer to 7 or 8 months)

of sending every notice I got from " Sun Bank " to the actual Sun Bank before they

finally stopped coming. You have to keep sending the fake ones to the real place

for a while before they have enough information/evidence to work with and try to

put a stop to it
