Change The Language, This Story Is Still Phishy

This afternoonI got a phishy email scam written in French. This is a new one. I receive several phishy emails a week, but this is the first one in French. My French is quite rusty, but surprisingly I was able to read it with pretty good comprehension. It helps that all of these stories follow the same format. Just the money and the relationships differ.

At any rate, I did much better reading it than I would have thought, but I don't think I'm up for any other language editions.

The bottom line is that this is still phishy, and it still smells like it.

Steve - If I get an e-mail in any language other than English, I just delete it. I don't push one for english either, I just hang up.

It is amazing that these crazy emails keep coming. I must get 25-50 a day or more. It is nuts. Some are so ridiculous that you wonder why anyone would believe them yet they keep coming.

I have been getting even a higher proportion of such garbage lately.
