359:Global View - Email Scam
A : I got an urgent email from Tom! He says he is in London and got robbed and needs us to wire him some money for his hotel.
B : What? That sounds really dodgy to me.
A : No way, Tom is an honest person, he wouldn't lie to me.
B : No I mean, it seems like someone may have hacked his email account and sent that out. I mean think about it, why would he email you instead of calling you.
A : Do you really think someone is trying to scam people into sending money?
B : For sure! There are so many con artists out there, you never really know.
