Yay! I Just Won An Iphone 4!

Yes. that's why never fall for such emails.. Scammers have very unique ideas, so better we more smarter than them.

Suny.. So you got your car.. Now when is the party ??

yes i agree with you akp,whatever may be the mode,the purpose is same,scamming and fishing. as you mentioned i too have received many mails saying that i won millions of dollar in a lottery etc etc and there only purpose is to trap you by giving away your personal information.

But they are the fools themselves. How could they even think that people would fall for that? But whose to know, there are still people who are better fools. Try? I sure wouldn't want to try this one. A different type of contest, maybe.

Why they don't just send it to my place. ..

Sure, they will send it to your place if you provide them your house address. Are you game for it?

You would probably be surprised at just how many are that gullible. After all if the scam wasn't profitable there would be no point in running it. Wasn't it P.T. Barnum that said that there was a sucker born every minute?

Hey, little mouse. So glad to see you. Where have you been all this time? I guess nobody would win anything in the end. So, it would really be a waste of their time if those people really fell for it. And hopefully they are not that dumb to give out all their personal details or maybe ... pay something just to get nothing.

You are right. I wonder if all this scamming would end one day.

Were they asking for any payment?

Jlyn.. Don't be too sure. I know few who already got fall for it..(got email saying win lots of $$) .. But fortunately I told them that this are just scam.. They had sent some mail in reply too.

I don't believe either. And they thought they could fool us. I hope nobody would fall for that, but hard to say. There are many kinds of people in this world.

So, why have you been working so hard lately that you don't even have time to read my discussion? LOL! I didn't even try to win it. Why should I when they said that I have already won?

So it was a lie? Sorry if the answer is obvious but I'm too tired to think now.

LOL! What do you think? Of course, it was a lie. Better go get some rest and come back refreshed. You're making me feel sleepy as well.

See I can do that too. Was kidding. Got the mail that "Tell us your address and we will come to India to give lots of $$$$".. But I have to give them 500$ to receive the parcel.. They think i am fool..

Ha ha. Yes I am , At least from what they think.. Yes , Still some people can fall for such tricks.. I guess the one who are still new on internet can easily fall for such tricks. Like one of my friend. But now he knows all.

No, you're not the fool. You're smarter than they think. But there are still others who are fools and would fall for it.

Hehehehehe, ahem....no wonder I have these emails. Haha. I know that. I'm just saying I was lucky to not even get anything taken away.

Wait, I must be stupid....what does spamming mean? I mean I now I'm hearing spamming is really bad. I thought it was just emails from people who says you won a $1,000,000 or $500 gift card and all these things. What does it mean now...If its more than that, I don't know what it really means.

Well, so long as they have not taken anything from you, they can spam all they want.

Iphone 6!!! What about 5??

@suny I do hope you will win the airplane soon.

@akp: Iphone 6 - that is future palnning and creating a market as i saw the Iphone 5 Advert and there are many things they have promised - I am quite sure many of these will not appear on 5. So I thought the marketing for 6 must start now @praaji: Everything? @Jlyn and all - I need a ticket next to JlYn this time because this will be the first time I will board an airplane

Haha yes actually, a couple of times. I was a kid then and maybe internet was proving itself too good to be true then I remember filling up the forms and sorts and got a lot of junks and whatnots for so long hahah!! These days, even if it were real, I rather not bother

Well there was one time I gave out my cellphone number. The result was I got subscribed to some lame cellphone app and I have to pay per message received. So I quit it. Now I NEVER give out my number.

I'm sorry that your friend's friend fell for it. I guess that there are still people who have not heard about these scamming activities yet. How much did he lost to the scammers?

Well, at least now he knows and I'm sure he will not fall for that kind of scam ever again. Once bitten, twice shy. Hopefully he has learned his lesson well.

Jlyn10, I am not sure how much in total he had sent. He was not asked money only once, he even made calls to the scammers... and I guess he had not told much of these details to my friend. I have actually printed out around 5 pages for my friend to give him, I researched those info on the internet for her to warn him. The print out clearly shows and explain it is a scam and even the winning number is the same as his winning number. So I don't know why he still believed on that scam. He even accused my friend that she was maybe jealous that he won something. Dupremo, I also hope my friend's friend learned a lesson from it, we shouldn't just trust someone or something, especially we did not join in any promos or when it just pop-up telling you that you win for not doing anything.

@sjvg1976 Sure, it's about 10 years ago. Do you still want it?

@Jlyn10 send to me I will get it repaired.

@Jlyn10 hope you might have got the iPhone . if you don't want it then send it to me.

Agreed, but I obviously did not believe what I saw there. If I have had really won an iPhone, they could just send it to me but instead they want me to try and win that iPhone. Maybe they should have said "You have been picked to win an iPhone 4" instead, ya. Then it would not be so deceiving.

It would be nice if it is true, right?

@Jlyn10 yes I would really like it hahaha, like getting a gift from the sky

You are right, youless. Winning something without doing anything? Sounds kind of fishy to me.

Wow, you are so lucky to be winning so many things daily.

It is funny ... and also stupid!

Yea, and I definitely will not pay anything if I have won something. They can keep the price if they want me to pay for it.
