    harsh.

    just because some people were not brought up in the technical age and the world has become full of nasty rip offs doesnt mean people deserve it.

    you wouldnt like it if you were conned out of money any other way, so why do people DESERVE shit for nothing other than little pikeys trying to fuck people over?

    i take it by saying people deserve it that you wouldnt be bothered if you stubled into a trap? shrug your shoulders and say " oh well, i deserved it."

    very much doubt it.

    people are right - thats harsh.

    computer/web crime is getting more and more sophisticated and clever - not everyone who owns a computer knows ALL of the tricks..

    i could say all people who get hacked/spammed/spywared up deserve it... just don't go asking for advice and crying like a girl in the geeks sections :rolleyes: :eek: :D
