It's probably a scam-type thing but they neglected to make sure the link worked.

[Teta_Bonita]

Hmm.... I tried to open the link and a little window popped up and said:
"The server's name 'www.colonialbank.com' does not match the certificate's name 'secure.goldleaf.com'. Somebody may be trying to eavesdrop on you."

Someone is trying to pwn you! :O

 

[nutcrackr]

Sounds like spoofing to me, if you have time you may want to email Colonial Bank and forward the email telling them of the scam

Quick! The former colonial powers are coming to take back your Korean homeland! For imperial glory!

You'd better defend your coastlines, while leaving your northern border exposed!

/me informs Kim Jong-Il of developments...

*Calls 113(the military hotline) and 111(National Intelligence Agency)about the impending attack on the fatherland*



btw, it says my IP is forbidden whenever I try to go into the Bank's homepage. It must be a sign of their imperialism. :E

I'm thinking of sueing the University of Phoenix because they keep on sending me spam about "Joining their University". I don't live anywhere near there and I'm already at University

It's somewhat worrying how many people took that for a legitamit email at first. There's way easier ways to make money off of Nigerian royalty who are literally handing out thousands of dollars for your help in accessing the money of their dead uncles . I found it very ironic that they mention it's a crime to impersonate someone else while they are impersonating a large bank.

Death eVADER - Why not either instruct them to stop sending it, or block the address its coming from.

Sueing for spam? ffs. OMG. EMAiLZZZ, oh noes, give Me joo thousands of monehs.
