MacBozo Nut Dood Registered: 04/20/02 Posts: 16605 Loc: Pinellas Park, Florida	Got a text message from an unknown phone # stating that I had won the Best Buy $1000 gift certificate. All I had to do was tap on the link and enter the special code. Ummm, yeah, right. Edited by MacBozo (11/26/12 02:42 PM) _________________________

MrB I invented modding! Registered: 08/28/03 Posts: 6398 Loc: SE Kansas	Lately I've been getting emails supposedly from such as Angelina Jolie, Reesece Witherspoon and the like. Or with their name somehow in the subject area . In the content area only a link. I just erase them but I'm getting three or fours a day now or thelast week or so.
