My common sense firewall should take care of it

Still get those sometimes and they're a pain in the backside. On top of the spam I used to get when I used to play WoW.
 
But Sandra is such a trustworthy name...

Thats just an example of what I STILL get, months after I stopped playing WoW. The people who do scam e-mails obviously excell in the grammer and creativity department. Was a field day sometimes though for keyloggers etc.
