You mean like: "Would you like to go out with me sometime?" / "Yes." ...that sort of thing?

Of course its a scam!!!shocked shocked Its what they call spam!! I get those type of things all the time in my mailbox!! In fact I would b very wary of opening those things in case its an actual virus that could f...k your whole computer up BIG-TIME!!! I get emails telling me I have won millions of dollars, yet I live in the UK!!!

Its funny but as I live in the UK and we get free medical care and medications, but I keep getting emails sent 2 me regarding getting cheaper meds from online Canadian pharmacies!!! lol lol lol lol

If you entered something then maybe you won.

If not then it is a scam.

It's a very common scam. They ask for your bank details so they can put it in. What they do is take out.

Also be on the lookout for members of Nigerian royalty who want you to help them move $50 million and will offer you 20%.

Also, there's the work from home processing e-mail transactions.

Look, anything unsolicited is a complete piece of shit, basicaly.
It's not my fault, it's your own - so don't even think of complaining to me. Now stop having those disgusting thoughts.
