Just hit the REPORT SPAM button. That is just silly SPAM.



In general, there are thousands of people that are getting that SPAM each day. The SPAMMERS only have to find ONE ****** and they make a ton of money off of the victim and our banking insurance. Identity Theft costs us over 65 Billion Dollars a year.... all because a bunch of people are much stupider than you. But you seem like a smart sort of person.



When you REPORT SPAM by using that button, you are helping others to NOT get that crap. Just maybe, your action will prevent a gullible person from getting that message. So you deserve a GOLD STAR for being one of the GOOD GUYS today.



Good Luck and Happy Computing!
