Over the past weekend I recd an email that someone had "discovered" one of my coins. Since the coin is in my drawer and the mission says " only those who lend a hand and help out, who have touched the coin may discover it " I quickly looked at the log and the profile of the cacher. It all looked legit but I still deleted the log. I quickly got an email response from the cacher, who lives in Spain, and his email contained a link to show me where my coins number was. I clicked to open what I thought was a link to his Picasa site. I quickly closed the link as I was not going to search the whole site looking for the coin pic. This morning I recd another email from the same cacher, and it contained another link that I did not open as it looked very suspicious, and could have contained a virus.
Too much of this sort of thing going around. Several of my close friends have had their emails hacked and I have recd 4 emails this week with suspicious links. AOL is one of the biggest " fishing scams " on the internet, when asked to update your billing info, for a site that is free. I may be from Maine but I know the answer to that one. DELETE THE EMAIL!
Be careful what you open even if you think you know who sent it.
