aol has blocked this site because its a known phishing site? Well I kept getting emails and reporting them but they kept comming. One day, I got fed up and clicked the link and then got the block warning from aol. The aol warning said that the site was well known for trying to get peoples personal information. The people that send it out, the scammers , will say its urgent for you to contact them and make it sound very important.

Well I don't have aol and one of the reasons is due to the trouble with their email system. I know many people who have it and because of it they don't receive mail because aol blocks it due to a link in the email. I have several friends if I respond to their email and their site urls are in the email it will bounce back on me because the site (which is on a free hosting site) is known for sending spam. I have to make sure to remove all links from the email I send to them. It's crazy. I recommend to them to get Gmail, it's free and you can use it with OE and it has a nice spam filter.

I have Norton Sysytem Works installed and running. It has a great email protection program built into it. I have not recieved any of this type of email as it is spam and deleted immediately. So I can't say I have this problem at the time. Thankls and dont give the info through a link. Type the site in by hand instead I say. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~
