    Anyone dumb enough to believe they, in specific, would be contacted about 'secret' music by Michael Jackson, deserves what they get.

    Meh, I'd imagine my mum falling for it. I'd say most parent's in above the 45, or the 'tech-phobic' people would believe it. Can't exactly blame them...

    I almost NEVER click or open files form an unknown email. That works the best. But yes still there are stupid people who believe everything internet and television tells them. Once somebody sent my friend an email requesting his bank credit card number or something. He mailed back saying "Good luck finding an idiot" and the person send him "Thanks"

    gmail is same enough.it filters a lot. hotmail and yahoo sucks. they are kindergarten guyz compared to gmail.gmail can locate the suspicious emails .yahoo sometimes can block one or two email.and hotmail seems like never heard of spam or virus.he delivers every email straight to inbox.so use gmail and be safe.
