Identity Theft in Scams
- 3-30-2007
- Categorized in: Blogs
We have no doubt that some of the names used by the scammers in their emails and letters are taken from real people. Lets put it this way, no scammer would use their real name in a scam. So although we list the full email with the 'fake names' of each scammer, bear this in mind that the scammer is not really the person with that name in the email or letter.
