    Strange this one. The grammar and spelling of this, quite long, mail would suggest someone schooled and educated, or some very clever use of A.I..

    Anyway, I am a bit too long in the tooth to fall for that.
    Somehow I cannot extract the IP address of the sender, to check where it comes from, country wise..

    Have fun reading this.
    Not a new idea but some elderly or extremely gullible could be taken by this low life scammer.

    I remember Leo Laporte (The Tech Guy) The Tech Guy - Wikipedia talking about this scam many years ago.

    "I make a small profit. You should transfer $1250 to my Bitcoin wallet"

    Makes you wonder what a big profit is. :eek::lol:
    You're right, Dom; so many gullible people have lost so much money with this scam over the years. :devil:
