OT:WARNING: CItibank Scam

People that put the attachments of others posts at the top of an email are
complete idiots and should think about their netiquette.

How many times are we supposed to read the crap over and over before we get
to the reply? On a long post it better be good or most will just killfilter
you to avoid further repeat reading. The Europeans on cells modems will
certainly love you for running up their online bills...NOT!

Idiot!

bah... I fire up my newsreader, see 16 new messages and I think there's
some juicy scrap I've missed out on... that'll teach me to hang out in
groups where 16 messages is a big deal...

BTW, anyone who actually falls for scams like this without checking
with their bank first *deserves* to have the contents of their account
scooped up by some dumb-ass script kiddie and spent on crack, porn and
doughnuts...

That's why snipping unnecessary text is the way to go, then replying
directly under the text you are referring to.

Unfortunately muppets like you who top-post are invariably the worst
offenders for not snipping the text you quote.

I appreciate it's a double whammy you being Canadian and an OE user, but
I'm sure you can put a little effort into moving the cursor from where
Bill suggests you start typing.

Then I suggest you actually read up on some of the Usenet 'manuals' aka
RFCs

No one gives a rat's arse about netiquette anymore. Otherwise you
wouldn't have cross posted to so many groups. And ascii art sigs are
so 1990's. Get with the program.

Who am I to trim a cross post? I simply replied to the original cross
post, and the vast and un-related cross grouping was that person's stange
selection. To therefore be assured that my reply is read, I needed to
maintain the groups.

And don't dis the ascii art...I'm actually an 80's kinda guy, and have to
show my outdated and outmoded ways in some way!

That's considerate of you, but if for every single internet scam out there
(there are countless ones) somebody crossposted a notice/warning through
usenet, we'd be flooded with such caveats in short time.

Agreed, it's like driving a car, using the Internet is a dangerous
enterprise, and while it maybe far fetched to suggest lessons and a test
to use the Internet, I think it's fair to suggest, that you'd be in the
same kinda trouble to do embark on either venture while lacking a good
grounding.

Getting into a car and trying to drive away is not too distant from
getting onto the internet without knowledge of firewalls, anti-virus,
pop-up blockers, spam-blockers...and so on..

Or maybe a better analogy is with sex education, as we need to be
educating our 10 year olds about their safety, and their own protection.
And that using Outlook Express as your newsreader is akin to using any
form of contraceptive endorsed by the Catholic Church, as they both end
up getting you into trouble and disowned by your family!

There are no USENET MANUALS and if anybody tries to tell you that they are
sillier than you.
Usenet does NOT specify formats or netiquette. It is all just opinion on
preferences. Practicality is the only way.

Please post your attachments at the bottom if you want people to read your
posts. If you don't then what are you trying to accomplish?

YES! Well said. Or who can't be bothered to check the thread, and
want....aaargh!

AH! But if you argue etiquette, then there is right and wrong. I post
wherever I think is most appropriate, using a bit of _thought_, which
is what absolutes, rules and "etiquette" are designed to prevent! <G>

I let it go first time, but that's twice. Your m key appears to

Any chance you can put a proper sig separator '-- ' before your sig, that
way it'll get removed when we reply to your articles? Ta
