Pissing my BSD boxers with laughter
So I check my mail a little bit ago, and I have 5 Emails all to me saying it's from a bank. Hmm, that's funny, I don't use banks, I pulled my money out when I read about the depression in Detention one day in high school.
So I look further and can't help but laugh at how BAD these morons are at conning people.
Here is the HTML I got. I checked my mail with Mutt but you can view things like this with v :

Yea, like I was going to just go "OH NO SOMEONE IS TRYING TO GET INTO MY ACCOUNT!"
The part I love the most here is the "Use your social security number for a password" bullshit. People fall for this? Hmmm, I have job security.
you know in all the times I've conned people, like ALL of them, even when I was little and just trying to bullshit my way out of being grounded, I wouldn't even consider this sack of **** a C+ effort.
I haven't changed or removed any links to protect the guilty. **** 'em.
