did anyone else get a scam message from a creep claiming he/she has less than 2 weeks to live and, what else???

that, of course, he/she needs help in accessing funds that he/she will donate to cancer research.

the message was sent by someone purporting to be a CSN member and obviously accessed my CSN space.

    Did you flag it?

    CSN will then need to look at it and take it down.

    It makes me miss Tex...since he was on the other side of the pond, he caught those and flagged them before we even got up for the day.

    Too bad Dr. Kevorkian isn't still around to put that person out of their misery.
