    Fake itunes (Apple) Receipt Scam

    I just got a legitimate looking e-mail confirming a purchase from the Apple itunes store that I was supposed to have made. A google search confirmed that this is a scam. They provide you with a link to dispute the claim but all they are doing is phishing for personal information. Be aware of this.

          I like Jane, she's a trooper.

            Some years ago I got several Nigerian scam e-mails at my work address.

            I eventually faxed copies of them to the FBI, as they instructed on their website.
            Strange to say, I haven't been bothered by them since!
