Smile My humble advice

Hi,

Most of these are scammers. They are trying to separate you from your money in various (they think) clever ways.

What I do from time to time is to enter a search string that might be belivable like Edit sings'. If you get back different named files of the same size, by the same host, then go to the options filter hosts and block these hosts. They are scammers of some type.

an example result might be:

Edit sings.asf
Edit sings nude.asf (yup they add nude often)
Edit _gets_whipped.(whatever, they add it)

if these are all the same size then block the host.

asf and mpeg files seem to be their favorite. So far I have not gotten a .rm file that looks suspicious. That may change.

Ken
