Beware of your accounts!

I didn't know about it until a friend send me an email saying that one person account maybe have been hacked. The hacker manage to get her friends email then create an email account with her name and send to all her friends. The hacker forward the email to all her friends which have on the email lists.

What they wrote? You can see below and for sure this is a scam! You must be wondering what account she's using. It's something start with hot. You know the rest of it.

Can hacker hack into such account? Please tell me.

No feedback

Earlier I posted about I received an sms saying that I won a lot money. I had send email to Astro about it but sad to say there have no feedback at all. Not even an email or a call back.

I have received email as well about me winning the lottery. Well, its an old trick but there are still people falling for it. I just delete them as usual, some people are getting smart now they just put the subject on something else to attract you to open the email.

What do you do?

I won $14,000 ??

How nice if this is a dream come true, but I don't think so! This morning I received a SMS saying that my sim card has been selected as a Winner and won myself $14,000. Funny thing is I never come across such contests and its really crazy that the content is written in Malay. Other than that it said to call the hub, telephone Office Astro Malaysia xxxxxxxxxxxxx.

Well, who is stupid enough to call and claim the prize? After all knowing its a scam. I have email to Astro and let them know about it.
