These e-mail are out there because they work, they suck people into
giving anything these e-mail ask for. You can usually take the link
they want you to click on and either right click and open a new window
or copy the link into a separate browser window and see where it goes.
It usually goes to a different URL address than the company they
advertise.
But then again everybody know everything on the Internet is true, right!

Any email you might get from ANY COMPANY ETC that requests any info from
you
online, is bogus, there are no, I repeat NO companies that ask for your
personal info, unless you are ordering something. Also forget about
feeling
safe if you see the "yellow lock" when being asked for the info.
We get a bundle of complaints about this. I have even had email directed
to my
office requesting personal info. Talk about stupid! They are addressed
to
Seniors Vs. Crime Office, Project of the Florida Attorney General.
