ScamOla Launched!

Today, I am launching ScamOla. You send in me your best scam emails and I'll put them up here (amongst my usual postings) as a warning to others who may be about to be duped.

We've all had them. They are all a pain. But, remember, some people are taken in by them - so help me put a stop to that.

I am particularly focusing on domain and trade mark type scams.

Another one will be along any second now...
