I have my MSN available to the world here on Flopturnriver.com. I don't have a problem with that.
Today Carlcoxjr@hotmail.com tried to buy pokerstars money from me, probably a bad idea.
I told him no flipping way, and blocked him, I suggest you do the same.
Also, he doesn't speak english, I had to translate the conversation through babelfish. He seemed to want to transfer funds to my Ccard, for a transfer from p-stars.

The older I get, the more I start wondering; Just what in the hell is going on here?

don't trade cash with any random people. even if they send first. i've read too many stories about people getting screwed because its money from a stolen credit card or some other similar, and the money gets taken away.

It's probably Euphoricism trying to fund his 100NL short stacking method.

Isn't there some new memebr on here called CarlCox ? I ain't got time to search but I think he was asking if FTR names are the same as Pstars names.

He was a mental case going on about freeroll passwords too. Stay away from trading or transferring money with anyone, even someone you think you know on MSN or AIM unless you are absolutely sure it's them and it's legit.
People have had CC's stolen, poker site logins hacked and even Pay pal scams where they cancel a transaction after stars ships villain cash.

is it bad that I dont really read these to protect myself but instead out of curiosity of how clever (not very in this case) these scammers are?

Smithers, use the amnesia ray.
You mean the revolver, sir?
Precisely.
