Beware about the Steve Jobs give away

i have take mail like that too, but i never care about that. he don't know me, and why he give something to me? that what i think. just like other mail scam.

Haven't experience yet but my cousin do.Her mail account was hacked and even her facebook.The hacker keep sending mails to her friends and asking money.So should be careful in sending information in the net.

You are very smart and wise to not fall for it because Apple won't just give away 500 Mac computers just due to the fact that those aren't cheap. If it's too good to be true it probably is.

That information will be very useful since if we might find our friends also acts like that and give some unknown link we might also avoid being hacked. Lots of people always use other people to fool others and might trap them with what they want. Lets just always search and have some precautions when we receive unknown emails that says we win, get some rewards, and to register to an unknown links. I always block or report those person who does that kind of stuff on the internet especially on Facebook and Mails. We can also make this internet environment away from those kinds of person by reporting to the admin/authority. =)

yes. we should be careful and stay away from such people. Do not accept anything which you get without work.

hey wats up man! I have not encountered with that hacker recently. Thanks for your advice and now it's my role to inform to my friends..to stay away with that type of things .

Hi! I have not encountered this modus operandi but I have encountered similar cases and I don't really give a second thought to it. I immediately ignore it because it's just too good to be true. I'm too suspicious of things like these that I encounter in the net. Better be careful (or in this case, suspicious) than sorry.

Yes, I have a similar experience when my sister-in-law's email was hacked at Vienna where he has been now on an educational tour and money was asked by using the same old story of loss of passport and credit card. But fortunately, the hacker could not cheat us as because we immediately sent an reply email with the request to answer some easy to answer questions such as nick name of my other sisters and brothers, names of my parents etc for proof of identity which are well known to my sister-in-law but definitely not known to the hacker. And more interestingly, we used our mother tongue but the letters used were in English. So all these were Greek to the hacker who, as you can easily understand, could not answer and so were confirmed that my sister-in-law's email was hacked. Fortunately, later on we could communicate with him over the telephone.

I haven't encountered this hacker yet.I should be more careful now.I should check first if they are really giving away free macs. The desire to have some might take everything from me so I should be so greedy now.:)

you are so smart that you have chosen the right way to deal with it. actually, nowadays we often find it easy to be cheated through the Internet, so everyone should pay close attention to what you have seen or heard on it. however, I am lucky and still lucky due to my highly concern of what comes to me. have a nice day and take care.
