It may be not a good idea to post the text of SPAM emails as G will pick up on it and may penalise the forum for it. Already forum emails are now being labeled as SPAM by Norton

are they picked up the same if they're posted in code tags?
Probably an ignorant question but I just wondered

[Darren B]

Good Question, i know we have, well thats the royal we, about this before but i dont think anyone managed to answer it.

Oh and the screen dump you required miss bumps is in your mail box

I doubt it makes any difference that the original entry is in quote tags as this is just the markup prior ro posting. On the page it's just a diffefrent class appiled to a div.

Since when did you worry about page height Madamme? If you made your signature one line the threads on here would reduce in size by about a third!

Oh, and erm, evening missus. *tips pork pie hat*

With the guys ordering all this champers, when you know its a scam, whats to stop you taking the dish and not sending the goods, keep fobbing them off.
They cant report you if using stolen cards?
What you happen?

So far Ive not come across any requests like them.

err..the cards stolen and hence you, eventually, get a chargeback (including fees...not to mention it's bad for your merchant account history) ???

Not very clever, IMO

Theres a whole website devoted to annoying these folks, I forget the url at the moment, but there are some folk who seem to revel in it.

I fall out with everyone, even Blonde Birds not speaking to me right now.

The bank will take the money back when the real card owner finds out.

So far Ive not come across any requests like them.

Don't speak too soon...
