Marina Posted July 3, 2008 Share Posted July 3, 2008 Hi All Some of you will have received an email from goddess1hathor@yahoo.co.uk saying that I'm stranded in Nigeria and have been mugged, and need £2.500 to get home, worst of it is, its actually signed from me (I promise this isn't me). Please IGNORE this email, some one has hacked into my personal email account, and my bank account. I can't access this email account (for now), I've had to cancel all my cards etc, and inform the police, who are wanting more information. I'm not in Nigeria, don't intended to, as terrifed to fly (I even hate to travel on a train). I'm really sorry if this has upset or caused offense to anyone, please accept my apologises. Can I please ask, if anyone does receive this email, please can you let me know via this post, so I can let the police know, how many people this has affected. Again, I'm really sorry if you have received this, I feel very embarrased by it all. Best wishes Marina Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
