Microsoft put this in my Junk Folder in Otlook –

“Your Skype, Google and Yahoo folders will no longer populate in Skype.” (or something like that)

I sent it to Ms as a phishing scam, have no idea if that’s correct but as Ms itself put it in my Junk folder, I took that as a clue. Anyone else had this? As I don’t use Skype, losing the message does not matter to me.

I always get ladies sending me rude picture on Skype, and hangout (hangout is worse) Trying to get a video chat going. I recon they record you then try to back mail you.

when bored I’ll egg them on for 10 mins or so, they get quite forceful then a grey, by 15mins if your not on the hook.

My Google Spambox is always full of naughty Scandinavian “invitations” in some Scandinavian language or other. I take a scroll through to make sure they are all the same – hang on, haven’t done it for a bit, just going to it – yep, 38 Spam messages, deleted after a quick check. Wish I knew what the messages were in English! Although maybe not…

In outlook I get a couple of Adult Dating links to naughty videos every other day. I just block them: next time the address has changed slightly. Obviously automated.
