If you're stupid enough to send your details out over an Email, then well,
you're stupid enough to just hand the stuff you have over anyway. Me being
a Social Engineer, I can tell you that just from reading your email and the
way you.... It's hard to explain but any con artist or Social Engineer
knows what I mean, when you type, talk, and write, there is naked
personality inside it, and some people can pick that up. I can. And you
seem pretty easy to fool from your mail.
and the fact you gave up on SUSE for Mandrake over something stupid adds to
this, thinking psychologically, it would appear you fit into a stereotype
of people who don't like anything that at first is hard to use, and from
there, I can go on and on and build a profile of you in my head and use it
to my advantage.
Not that I will, you haven't ever offered me the right price to try it on
you. I won't scam for reasons of my own personal gain unless hired to do so
by a company / person who wants to be tested or a boss may hire me to etst
employees.
In other words:
sorry my powers can only be used for good.

They try though! ;) I've seen so many people get just nabbed by scams. I am
very good at it but my hopes are to make stupidity lowered, not take mnoey.
I've scammed money from people before, and gave it back.
