rentalguy1 Posted November 27, 2010 #1 Posted November 27, 2010 I just got this email from the US Dept of Homeland Security: Our department expects a prompt response to the allegations set forth in the attached document, otherwise, we will assume that you are responsible for this criminal offense. The return email address was U.S. Department of Homeland Security janet01napoliitano@gmail.com This came from big sis herself. Imma so skeered. It had a attachment. Do you think I should open it? Maybe I'll forward it to the FBI and see what they have to say about it... Maybe we should all click the link and email her with our thanks for what a good job she's doing!
Kregerdoodle Posted November 27, 2010 #2 Posted November 27, 2010 Do Not open the link!! Think we should mass mail her and hose her email up!!
Trader Posted November 27, 2010 #3 Posted November 27, 2010 poor janet is probably just some poor person who had her email address hijacked. It happened to me....I was getting hundreds of requests from people demanding that I take them off my mailing list. I didn't have any mailing list....and knew nothing of the emails! But somehow the mail sent to them had my return email address so it looked like it came from me.
Freebird Posted November 27, 2010 #5 Posted November 27, 2010 Does ANYBODY here REALLY think that Ms. Janet would be using Gmail for her email service?
BEER30 Posted November 27, 2010 #6 Posted November 27, 2010 Reply back with a hint of Baby Powder in the e-mail. That should keep them busy for a few days. And sign it , Pedro too? BEER30
saddlebum Posted November 27, 2010 #7 Posted November 27, 2010 I have even got phone calls like that and they want my personel info so they can verify it is really me. Its really me I tell them, they say they need authentic verificatio.So I put the person next to me on, and they say Yup its really him. then Hangup.:banana:
OldBear Posted November 27, 2010 #8 Posted November 27, 2010 Guys, If an email address doesn't end in ".gov" it is NOT from the feds! 30 years in two agencies, numerous friends in others. Trust me on this one. Don't where "Janets" address is, but it isn't the US Dept. of Homeland Security:crackup:
rentalguy1 Posted November 27, 2010 Author #9 Posted November 27, 2010 Does ANYBODY here REALLY think that Ms. Janet would be using Gmail for her email service? God I hope not! I forwarded the email to Homeland Security's cyber crime folks just for kicks.
etcswjoe Posted November 27, 2010 #10 Posted November 27, 2010 If you reply back expect to be added to several mailing list.
KarlS Posted November 28, 2010 #11 Posted November 28, 2010 I just got an E-Mail from the FBI. Said to open immediately to avoid prosecution. Didn't open it, figured they can come get me. Maybe they will take me somewhere warm.
rentalguy1 Posted November 28, 2010 Author #12 Posted November 28, 2010 Maybe they will take me somewhere warm. You mean like Toledo?
saddlebum Posted November 28, 2010 #13 Posted November 28, 2010 Have no fear...If they really want you they will come and get you......In the mean time, Unless you are actually expecting an e-mail reply from them for something Ignore it
BuddyRich Posted November 28, 2010 #14 Posted November 28, 2010 If they really want you they will come and get you..... They won't find me. I'm invisible.:rotf: Makes as much sense as thinking the FBI is gonna email me something..
SteveW Posted November 28, 2010 #15 Posted November 28, 2010 Hi Buddy are you in Marco Island now ?? We are down visiting the kids on Marco and are headingback tomorrow morning. If your here give me a call and we can get some coffee. Steve 770-630-0973
