Well, I just got another e-mail from the rich Nigerian guy who just so happens to have $11.5 million dollars, 25% of which he so kindly wants to give to me. I'm sure you've all had that junk email, the one where they need to transfere these millions of dollars into your account, then they get your account number and information and steal all your money, etc etc.
Well, I decided instead of just adding the address to my junk list, I'd get a little payback by slowing their operation and making for hours upon hours of inconvenience.
So, I sent a reply trying to sound naive (but believable), all on how much I'd love to help them out and make some money for myself and so forth. Then at the end of the message I said I was closing my yahoo account to switch to the AOL one. So, until I get my "new account" I asked them to so kindly reply by private message at the spyware-security forums I frequent (I don't really). The web address I gave them was www . slimshield . com
DO NOT GO TO THAT SITE, NOT EVEN TO CHECK IT OUT BRIEFLY
Slimshield is THE WORST piece of malware I have EVER encountered. All you have to do is open their site and you have their malware, regardless of your security. When I opened their site it locked up every option throughout my computer to give me any hope of removing it. I tried every anti-malware program under the sun to no avail, and it had my desktop hijacked with huge SLIMSHIELD advertisements and links to their site. After days upon days of trying to remove it, I finally gave up and just reformatted my computer.
So, I hope they enjoy their little surprise when they go to private message me:D . And let it be known to scammers, criminals, and victimizers everywhere, Karma will come back to bite you in the ass, even if I have to be the catalyst:thumbsup: .
