Online...

…Part 2

As mentioned last, I been an online chatter for quite a while, but I had a first time thing happen today. I was the victim of a potential crime. Yes… you heard right, I wasn’t actually taken for any money, but I could image a more innocent person would fall for it.

This person chatted casually for a while before telling me he had a new job in Aussie. But he needed me to cash a cheque for him and wire him the cash. I told him I wasn’t an idiot… for some reason he drifted away ;-)

I reported him to the Aust. High Tech Crime Center (www.ahtcc.gov.au). Hopefully he will be caught.
