Same thing happened to me. They hacked into my email and changed my password, then emailed all my contacts asking for money to be sent to Western Union. Police are investigating. At least one contact has complied and actually wired the money.

I don't get it, the money will still go the the thief, not to you. Why your relatives will send money to someone else instead of you? Are they all dumb, nobody called before to ask: do you really need money? did you write me this message?
Damn mo rons deserve to be scammed :) http://gadget-blog.ro/ |

Daily Horoscope for June 2
Cancer
You have a tendency to go overboard today Cancer, whether it's eating too much food, drinking too much or taking on more than you can handle at work. You simply won't know when to stop! You're in a very sociable mood and you're also feeling very easy-going, prepared to take people at face value and to turn a blind eye to their faults and foibles. And you hope they'll do the same for you.
