Delete it, definitely do not click the links, they will take you to a phishing site. Don't worry about making a 'fishing' related crack, we've all heard them before.

If you get an email offering to make your penis bigger, don't click on that either - it doesn't work...

It's legit. I know her. Send me your bank details and password and I'll sort it for you.

Follow the link given, ignoring the fact it's not actually going to that address, enter your Western Union account details and get your $694.50 back! What could possibly go wrong?
Hilarious! The 'site' is merely an image with a login box - none of the links work. Anyone who falls for this shit is a fucking moron who deserves to be scammed.
I'm going to take a wild stab and say that your TradeMe username is the same as your email address.

Had an email the other day advising a UPS parcel was waiting for delivery on supply of details.....
I assume it's a variation on the same phishing scam.

I had some bloke telephone me yesterday trying to "verify my identify" coz he wanted to pay me some money. Probably more like trying to steal it, so I strung him along a bit. Fuck he got really irate ay it was funny as hell. He was like "HELLO? HELLLOOO? LISTEN!!!! LIIIIIISTEN!!!! :angry::angry:" so I wound him up some more.. Pity I didn't record it. :corn:
But yeah, these scams are easy to recognise. The bottom line is, NO ONE EVER emails you and sorts this shit out, so don't go there.

Yes it does. You get this special powder and you rub it into you penis for a couple of minutes and before you know it, your penis is bigger.

DONT click the link. Man, these things are a royal pain and will eventually make doing business online, un-tennable. Shame really, but I see an opportunity to take things back a step of 5. Hmmmm.

Yeah, but it won't stay that way for long enough. I think I might have to try the Viagra emails...

Geez, I had such a nice way to re-word that line, but somehow it just wasn't right in reply to "Mom".

I tried that too. In actual fact it makes your eyes and hands smaller.
