Scam or Spam msg?

info_art2007 · 10-23-2007, 10:39 PM

I've already discussed this issue in other forum but i wanna share it to you too guyz.., i just wanted to know if you experience receiving message in your e-mail account mostly in yahoo mail saying that you win $1 million in an electronic raffle draw in UK? it also mentioned that if you do not confirm it for just about 7 days the winning prize will be discard...i always get that kind of trash message in my email account..sometimes i also received an email coming from a person saying she's dying and her money will be donated to me and if i will not claim it for just about 1 week again it will also discard...do you think that two kind of msg is came from one person? do you think that is spamming or scamming? or just the same....?

Both! SCAM AND SPAM!

Cryxellis · 10-24-2007, 01:01 AM

I think both. Spamming and scamming at the same time,
they promoting a scam and out of that they were spamming
the e-mails to promote their scam.
