Your Liberty Reserve account is temporarily blocked - Phishing Scam Email
20th Apr, 2013 at 1:45am
 
Hello, after receiving this email twice today and actually one managed to slip through yahoo's spam filters ending up in
my main inbox, I'd like to inform everyone as you might have been receiving it too. The email body is the following :

Quote:
=============================================================

1. Liberty Reserve only Know your personal message.
2. Never send you any attached files.
3. Never ask you to send us your password and/or login PIN.
=============================================================

This email is obviously a phishing scam trying to steal your liberty reserve email and password.
The link's address itself is almost funny : libretyres
rse
ve


Keep away from it and report it as spam/junk/scam in order for email companies to block it from spreading..
If you accidentally followed it, make sure you visit the original liberty reserve address : http://www.libertyreserve.com/
and change your password immediately if you still have access to your account.

Well, most people are aware of such scams but anyways, I hope I saved someone's account. Take care!

I don't have a LR account  and I try not to hate anybody but I absolutely hate scammers that pull stuff like that. That is so completely unethical  Angry
