Emails from Dave D...

[robcook]

I think Dave D's email might have been hacked, or someone is pretending to be him.... until further notice be very careful of any e-mails from 'him' via any hotmail.com address. His usual e-mail is a live.co.uk address. I am trying to reach Dave to confirm.

Yep, some scamming scumbag is pretending to be Dave, on the hunt for wonga. It's a copy/paste scam e-mail that appears all over the net.

I won't post Dave's real e-mail addy here but it's NOT currently a hotmail.com addy, so if you receive anything asking for money, or claiming that a family member is ill then just bin it. Dave is fine - more than fine, the lucky sod as he's off on yet another holiday

Thanks for the info. And I'm glad to hear Dave is great

Yes, thanks for the info. And thanks to this thread I also learned what "Wonga" is.

The scam one I got was from live.co.uk

Ah.... looks like the scammer has got access to two accounts then, or is simply spoofing the sender addy. I haven't received anything from the live addy.
