With as often as I alone see these scams they must work quite often. Like squared said, you wouldnt see them if they didnt work. It hurts my brain to try and imagine how many stupid people must fall for these scams that are so obviously a scam. Im starting to think if I just sent out emails asking people right out for their bank account numbers I could just quit my job.
Hi, Im with the electric company and we show that you have not payed your bill for this past month. If you would only provide your name, address and bank account I could clear this right up for you. Otherwise we will be forced to turn off your power. Thank you very much.
