Horrible E-mail scam

[AxeWarrior]

I heard about some horrible e-mail scam. You get the e-mail telling you to check something out ( usually porn ) and see if you want to subscribe. Once you click the link your pretty much trapped , the only way you can get out is by paying the owner of the site 89$ in some way. Discuss

Does he come to your house and lock your computer's power cable in place?

[alicetheDroog]

Couldn't you just unplug your computer?

I doubt it's that dangerous. You'd have to actualy click the email title, read the email, click the link . . . and who actualy reads their spam mail anyway?
