 Posted: Sun Mar 01, 2009 6:30 pm Post subject: Hackers after your Paypal email address. |
 |
|
This email was posted on another VO site.
| Quote: | I got a request for a HipHop DJ voiceover today, citing voiceovers.com
as the site they got my email address from - but I am not on there.
What they wanted was my Paypal email address right off the bat to send
me money right away - without asking if I take Paypal.
When I checked the email address of the sender, the only reference to
it on Google was as a user name on a Hacker's website.
I have had a hack my Moenybookers account attempted recently, and of
course, if your Paypal password is strong there should be no problem.
I am very wary of people asking me for my Paypal address who use
hotmail, gmail, yahoo etc email addresses and have no website and give
no company address. |
This is the original request.
Hi, I got your email address from voiceoverdirectory.com.
I have my own R&B/HipHop mixshow. Every few weeks we play a brand new exclusive track, and I would like to pay you to send me a short 10 second dry voice MP3, in a normal voice, that I can play at the start of the song on air. If your interested, each time we get an exclusive track I’ll pay you for a new one!! Here is an example script of what I’m looking for;
"This is the brand new single from Bobby Valentino...its called “Walking Away”.. and features Lil Wayne… stay tuned so we can keep bringing you hottest in Hip Hop & R&B".
If interested, email me at guexxwho@hotmail.com and let me know how much, and also your paypal address. I will then PayPal you right away!!! And you can email me the mp3 whenever your able to record it 
Thanks so much.
Shawn.
