The Police Have an Update for Me

It is amazing what you can find in email these days. I am glad for my gmail and yahoo because all the nasty spam goes into a separate folder and I just delete it all. This piece of garbage managed to get by unnoticed. It was in with my regular mail and it said that the police had an update for me. Now being an intelligent woman I knew that the police, who I have never met here in Daytona Beach, could not possibly have any kind of update for me. I was just wondering if the word police alone might get someone to open this mail and what horrors would happen if they did. This incident reminded me of a song from years past “Indiana Wants Me” about a fellow singing about the police looking for him and that he would not longer get back to his family. It was sung by a guy called R. Dean Taylor. The song was also written by this Canadian singer-songwriter. It became a hit in both the US and the UK. Unfortunately, even though the singer promoted the record on American Bandstand this was his only hit in the US. Who remembers this song? Have the police had any updates for you lately?
A Big 'Thanks' To UMG for Use!!!!! R Dean Taylor 'Indiana Wants Me'

That is such an odd thing to receive in the mail. Scammers apparently are trying a new way to trick people.

Imagine if I really had some kind of contact with the police and then I get this and before I know it bye-bye to my PC @shaggin

@RasmaSandra They are not totally wrong then. If you get a car it will greatly increase

It’s awful how these spammers seek people out. Glad you had enough sense not to open it.

People will try anything to get you to open their spam e-mails. I'm glad you didn't fall for it. I've never heard the song before.

It would have worried me if I was still living in Latvia because the police there are like the former Soviet militia @Aansh13
