got a phishing email just now for my CC#s claiming to be from Amex...

but..

What the point is..? Except for sign up for pr0n or by digital stuff on internet there is No point really is thjere.. For the fraudsters cos nowadays everything must be sent to the same address as payment? And even if they sent something to a different house theyd get busted ... so, i ask what these phishers bother for? Or just porn addict??

:confused:

You can purchase goods and have them delivered to a proxy location... Also, people from other countries don't have nearly as big of a chance of being tracked down or even investigated. A lot of phishing comes from foreign countries.
