This little gem (below) I received today, in my gmail box:
First thing - I've never heard of "Google Account Alert" (who it is supposedly "from")
Second thing - "mailnorewly(at)gmail(dot)com" is not my address (though it insists it was sent to mailnorewly, is not even close to my address, and is spelled incorrectly anyway.
Heads up to the phishers out there - if you can't spell even a simple word like "reply" don't waste your time.
Third thing - nobody in their right mind would ever even try to reply such a dumb, stupid email.
Please people, if you're going to try and phish something out of me, you better learn to spell, and get way more creative than this.
For the rest of you, my readers - I am pretty sure none of YOU are going to even blink as you reach for the "spam" button in your gmail account, right?
Just about the only good thing I can say about this email is that it tickled my funny bone for about one-tenth of a second. It actually got a smile out of me,.

Hey Gracey iv seen you help many people on the adsense help and was wondering if you could take a quick look at my issue its written in detail?http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/AdSense/thread?tid=68fdfc16448646a5&hl=en
ReplyDeleteWell it depends on where you live. In some countries Adsense only allows one Adsense account per household address, so if you live in the same household as your brother, it's possible you may not qualify for your own account.
ReplyDeleteIf your brother no longer has an adsense account, then you can try applying for your own.
Breanna - I replied in the Adsense forum on your thread.
ReplyDeleteIs it safe to write out your email address on you blog? I've heard it will increase you SPAM a ton.
ReplyDeleteI generally try not to leave an email address in email address format if I can avoid it.
ReplyDeleteIf I need to put my email address on a blog for the sake of giving people some sort of contact, I create an image (in photoshop, but almost any paint type program will do). The background colour matches my blog, and I write my email address on that using the text function in the image program. Save the file as a .jpg or .png and you can upload it to your blog and place it where you need the email address.
Bots can't read the information in the image, so you won't get your email address scraped. People who really want to, still can by writing down your email address and send you mail from their email program.
Thanks Gracey for the quick response and assistance!
ReplyDeleteso Gracey what do you say that what should I do ?
ReplyDeletenow. should I change computer or IP and where can I apply for my adsense account..for this blog http://ideal-knowledge.blogspot.com
Submit an application using the monetize link in blogger. You can't change your IP address - it's usually assigned by your internet serviced provider. Using a proxy site to change your IP address is a very bad idea for adsense. You have no idea how many other people might be using that same IP address.
