Hi Dita and welcome to ScamWarners.

Can you post a bit more information about this? I'd like to investigate the co.cc domain further. Do you have other emails? Please do ask questions, also, we're glad to help.

Thank you Jillian, I've got a lot of such scam emails! I used to believe them and wrote back but something stopped me from contacting them further (luckily...)) I would like to post screen shots of 2 emails that are absolutely similar but have different contact information, names and photos. It will be all very clear then. Only i dont know how to post pictures here. Please help : )

Hi again,

The instructions for posting photos are on this thread: http://www.scamwarners.com/forum/viewto ... =28&t=3219

I am concerned, however, that if you post screen shots that will reveal your personal information here on the forum, which is not a good idea to do.
Do you still have the emails and can copy/paste them here so that you can remove your own information from them?

Also, you may try Google searching key sentences from the emails, you'll likely find other copies of the same emails posted on anti scam sites like ours. Scammers do tend to use the same/similar emails over and over again. We call these "scripts" as they just copy and paste and send them to tons of people. Scammers also use many different names so it's very common to find the same emails sent from two different names/accounts.

I'd still like more information on the co.cc domain if you have it. If that is what is in the screen shots you can send them to me privately. My email address is in my signature line.
