The Dot Cons

To show just what intimate and personal information people will give to complete strangers, the Internet Explorer 8 team set up two elaborate scams common on the internet in New York City.

This is a YouTube plug for Internet Explorer 8, but the way the people get suckered into the scams is hilarious.

Watching that makes me think about all of the personal info I gave to that singles.com interviewer- but I stopped at SSN and credit cards.

And got them to reveal way too much information to total strangers, which is exactly how people get scammed all the time.

I am sure it is a mecca for scam artists all right with so many senior citizens there. It is amazing how easily people can be duped.
