> Thankyou Doreen, I appreciate your comments. I too am extremely vigilant and log out of everything when I am not using it. I also delete my browsing at the end of the day. It is just so annoying - a lot of them you can tell are fraud, but there have been some that have come from a cousin of mine - with the subject line of Family Member death (at the time our grandmother had just died)which was a worry. I had to contact her via Facebook and find out if it was right, turned out someone had hacked her account and sent out these dodgy messages. So it pays to be extra vigilant. Anyway thanks again. Take care. Regards Tracey. > > > > I am extremely vigilant online, and since I became a victim of a scam a > few weeks ago even more so.
