Hi everyone

Sorry for this OT question, but i don't know what to do.
I have been sent an email from someone in africa asking for help and
bank details, i know this is a con, but are we to report this to
someone , i remember seeing something on tv and reports in news, and i
can not remember if i should just delete it or report it.

Thanks

If you don't already have it, get Mailwasher and bounce such mails back
without accepting them onto your computer. see www.mailwasher.net

Please don't bounce mail for the reason given frequently here and
elsewhere.

MOST SPAM HAS FORGED HEADINGS.

By bouncing you are often upsetting an innocent person and wasting
bandwidth.
Yes you are right, but on the other hand I sometimes think that the only
way to get ISPs to do something about all this crap is for everybody to
start bouncing everything!!!!

Anybody bouncing anything in my direction gets an abuse post sent to
their ISP.
Hmm. Do you actually own the domain name invalid.com?
