You must have noticed this. While you are browsing an website, there may a message pop up like this "Congratulations, you have won this or that, click here to claim" or "You have a message, click here to read it"..etc etc..! The gullible people who believe this type of message fall a victime to phishing! When you click on this type of window, you will be told to fill up a form. There you will be told to give your personal information like name, email address or even sometime credit card number. If you do not give credit card number your number may be stolen. If you do not credit card number, but give email address, you will be sent unwanted emails regularly. So be ware of these types of messages.

Thank you for your information.Yes I got such message and became victim of an ill motivated website.I did not give them my credit card number.Then they sent me an e mail with a ponographic video. Other than this my computer attacked by virus.So like you I cautioned my fellow myLot members don't respond to such unwanted e mail and not be trapped.
