Being a non drinker and working in a industry that does not allow any type of drug use, I was scrawling the Internet looking for cheap RC's (Chemicals that mimic the action of Marijuana but not illegal) I was contacted by sombody in Thailand who gave me a reasonable price. After paying the initial outlay, they provided me with a tracking number, and a website address in which to track it, this site looked exactly the same as EMS but when my package apparently got to the country Suddenly they wanted more money to deliver it, Me knowing that courier company's do not operate like that I investigated further into the website, and found that it was a Phishing site (Fake site designed to make you either reveal information or believe something not true) I was lucky that I had the computer skills to work this out, Even after finding out I still felt a slight urge to pay the extra money as I didnt want to waste my initial outlay, Luckily I decided to cut my losses after telling the Scammer that I did not believe the product would ever arrive I started to receive threatening calls , SMS's and Emails. They had viewed my facebook and were threatening my family with Violence.
This did not work, LUCKILY , I am Ex Military and will never bow to threats, I want Anybody that is under the same type of threats to know, these Scammers have no power apart from what you allow, They are desperate and they will lie about anything, Delete their emails, Report as Spam, List them On this website and forget they ever existed. Be safe, Follow your gut feeling, if it feels strange, don't do it,your gut is usually right!
