Springtime...

Those of you who saw that post title and thought you were about to get my deep, introspective, and optimistic POV on the changing of the seasons, give it up. Instead, this is about Hitler.

Another One

I got another spoof email sent to me the other day. This time, I nearly fell for it! It appeared to have been from Verizon, and said:
The credit card we have on file for your Verizon DSL service was declined when we attempted to bill you on 03/11/2005 for your most recent service fees. For this reason, your service could be suspended.Please visit our Account Information pages, located at https://account.verizon.net, and update your credit card information as soon as possible.
The email was not sent directly to me, though -- it was sent to andy.simo@verizon.net -- and the URL lived at 200.42.84.12, which is not owned by Verizon. Be on the lookout!
