Yahoo! has an article on 14 financial horror stories, which are really fourteen little blurbs about id theft, Nigerian money scams and a little corporate underhandedness thrown in.
A few days ago I got a Nigerian-scam type email that was extremely well written and without any grammatical mistakes. It was an email, probably written by a pro. The thing about this email is that it tells me that when times get tough, more people turn to crime, and their methods get better.
This is another reason I put together the Credit Padlock, so people can arm themselves against these types of horror stories on the cheap.
