Deffo a scam.
Anything saying "free money" is a scam.

Edit:
Never give out personal details on the internet.
99.9% of the times it's a scam.

 

[olec04]

[olec04]

Never ever trust those emails, even if they seem legit, they usually have numerous typos and grammatical issues.

Not *everything*. you can get free money if you know where to look. its just very illegal and i could get in a lot of trouble explaining the steps here.

 

[Ricken]

appeared in my spam folder

full name p number home address

These should say alot

says that I was a victim of scamming?!

I think you would know without a sketchy email if you were scammed or not

 

[olec04]

And then they rape you're bank account, steal your're identity and more so. Nothing is free in this world, as there is always a catch and if anyone says different, then they are a bullshitter too.

Well there is always free legal money in gambling, but that is also a far more reliable way to lose money too.

this is true. when i said this:

there are multiple things you're paying, for example: your innocence, and quite possibly your freedom. there are way i know to get free money without being traced, but its as easy as making a deal with an undercover cop or someone who might spill your information to be put in jail for a very long time.

I find it kin'da funny. But anything that you have to ask your self about itself is at fault... Is this a Scam? If you have to ask the question, then YES it is... Is it cheating when you... YES IT IS!.. lol

As a rule of thumb, if it's too good to be true, it's too good to be true. Run for the hills.

You want to earn millions of dollars a year working from home on your laptop? Hack a fucking bank

I'm Nigerian and I don't scam people, pretty sure that's a racist stereotype

It's not a racist stereotype so much as it's just something that happens to people. "I am a nigeran prince that needs da moneyz to get home. Will pay you 2x what you gave me". Like how people think all Indian tech support are stupid.
