scam

I think we've all learned a valuable lesson here today…

Ripping off the blind is a great way to make some quick cash in a poor economy.

And it doesn't matter because all blind people are super rich like Stevie Wonder.

Keep in mind though, since I found this opportunity for you, you owe me a finders fee: 10% of all your earnings.

Just PayPal the money to MichaelbSmooth@LYCOS.COM.

Hey guys, it's Tom Vu. He has a big house with a 7 car garage, a tennis court, and a fountain out front. Because nothing spells success like a water fountain.

In the 80s Tom Vu was famous from Quebec to Miami. Do you know how far that was back then? Way farther than it is now.

I hope he's still teaching his seminar on money making. I'd love to see that Mister Rogers' costume in person.

Catch it!

Did you fall for the latest Twitter phishing scam?

Yesterday, I received one of the direct messages that stated:

"somebody wrote something about you in this blog here"

This is nothing short of a brilliant scam, and here's why: Twitter is all about vanity.  It's about getting people to follow you to read your relentless stream of 140 character brain farts.

So if you receive a direct message that "somebody wrote something about you in this blog here," obviously most tweeters are going to say, "Of course they did!  I am so awesome and important and everyone is constantly reading what I tweet and talking about me that of course someone is writing about me on a blog!  I should go read that ASAP and reveal any personal information that anyone asks me for to see these things that people are saying about me!"

I didn't fall for the scam, but I'm not going to lie and say I didn't click the link.

I'm an important, awesome Tosh.0 blogger!!  People are probably writing about me on blogs all the time!!!!
