I received an email from "PayPal" telling me that some $69.00 has been charge to my account. It even include a "Cancel Payment" button for me to click. On checking, the cancel button is leading me to some unknown site. At the unknown site, it asked for all kind of personal information.
What I did was to immediately reported this as Phishing Scam so that Hotmail will do something about it.
So, be careful!

Online Scam is getting more professional
Today, there must be quite a lot of people who received official prize notification from Coca Cola Company. I just noticed that the prize announcement is getting more professional in term of presentation. I just hope that no one is silly enough to fall for this scam.
By the way, it is pointing to South Africa again by a Frank James. So, trash this type of mail as soon as possible.
