I am in Delaware with my computer and blackberry barely working. I received an alarming e-mail from GRAMMIE stating she was in Spain on vacation, that her wallet and passport, etc was stolen. She was asking for money. Did anyone else get this? Does anyone know how to reach her? PLEASE reply to me via e-mail (just in case I can't get on here) in addition to replying here. I think it is a scam but just in case.......cubbymikey@aol.com

this is a common scam....someone hacks into someones email and then hits everyones email address for money with a sob story....do...not...reply too this email....nor send money...
but if you really feel the need to send money...send it care of Steve201 boat and beer fund....
all contributions are gladly accepted.....
it'sa terrible thing to get hacked.....the scum should be drug down the road by their private parts......

I was at an identity theft seminar on Saturday. We learned a lot of scary stuff. The scam about requesting money from someone you know was mentioned--be careful!!

Hi there, I'm back with new passwords as well as new email address. The trouble now is to remember the pass words!!! I'm getting better at it so maybe I'll be here more often :-)
Thanks for being concerned and to Nancy who gave me this address so I could come back! Now I have the email address on a card should it ever happy again and I can't reach someone to get it!......back up system!
