That's it. It is that simple. If NO ONE did it, the scammers would not make any money doing it, and would stop. The only reason they do it is people fall for it and they make money. The same is true of the spam phone calls, if no one fell for them, they would stop.

Wish it was easy. Most of us enjoy the convenience of the Talk of the Villages email and safely CLICKED the email link to get here. Unfortunately, scammers are slowly getting better and better at looking like our trusted emails. We are flooded daily with emails that MOST should NOT be trusted. Hopefully they will get better and better at taking these scamming creeps down.
