If any of you get an email that says it's
from a bank or ebay or anything like that
asking for you to urgently verify your
data.. Delete it! I saw on the news
that people are stealing peoples identitys
by doing that and low and behold I just
got one like that. Didn't even get my
email right so I don't know how it got to
us.. The main theme behind it is it's
urgency.. They are usually claiming that
it's urgent.

No.. It probably wasn't.. The one's you
need to look out for are the ones asking
you to verify your customer data that
sound urgent.

Oh my health question got one of those
over six months ago. And yeah, I clicked
on it and verified all of the info! Swear
to god! But, the sad part is, it takes
you to ebay (or a page that looks exactly
like it) you log in (just like you do to
ebay) and then the actual verification
page that ebay has comes up. Well, my
health question filled it out! Grrrrr!
And it wasn't ebay. I am still waiting
for my credit card to be used like crazy.
Don't be dumb like me!
good thing I
didn't.
