E-mail has become a prime way of communication over the years. Even attending the University of Delaware, without an e-mail address you could virtually be lost among the crowd. Therefore, students, teachers, and other e-mailers should be more away of the scams that have become more and more popular. Recently, Nigeria has become the world's place for most of the e-mail scammers. Now these same scammers can break into the victim's e-mail account, impersonate them, and send a pleading e-mail to all the members in their account asking them to forward money to Nigeria. These scammers have entered people's Yahoo, gmail, and hotmail accounts, so beware.
Personally, I think that many people have to be extremely gullible to believe these e-mails. If someone is receiving e-mails from you, don't you think that you to converse alot and are close friends or are aware of eachother's travels. I think that many people believe to quickly and that is how they get into trouble.
