CREDIT CARD SCAM

CREDIT CARD SCAM   Eddy Young sent me twitters On my private electronic mail box Soaked in green I opened to see Congratulatory messages coming in   As the hundredth person on the roll You have won a million dollars Give your details, claim your prize That was where my woes began   I had no credit card account So my prize was left pending Questions about my prize came in And so, the security threats, the virus   On a deceptive corruption spree The laptop that was not my own Forty-five files were put at risk Along with other valuables in it   When people plot to steal from you They care less about the fate of others And the consequences of their actions For some people are just so sinful…

The scam..

The virus, could be real or a hoax and the scam like a pit. Those who fall in, are the ones who venture out in the dark without light to guide them. It is good to be on the watchout. Thank you for the comments and best wishes. T.
