Scam - just so everyone knows last night I registered that I found that dog on pet finder and that fido site. I never give my e-mail on-line for anything else and today I have gotten 5 different money order type scam letters, everything from a job doing accounting for someone in the UK to some idot in Africa and the last one is a poor sick guy who wants to start an ophanage in some country and wants help to make his dream come true before he dies!! If a money order isn't from someone you know, call the bank on the money order to verify if it is real, certainly don't cash it and send them money! :mad:

Yup those spam letters have been circulating the internet for years now, unfortunatly. Then again you should NEVER give your bank account information to anyone you do not know and trust, especially if the person you are giving it to lives in another country and wants to give you 75% of the profit for sitting on your butt and doing nothing... I feel sorry for those who fall for these scams but then I don't because just... don't do it, lol.

Anyway they even made a generator for it haha
