So, I get an e-mail that goes a little something like this:

subjectMike i hope im not making a mistake

hello Mike, Can’t take in I’m really telling you this. Finally thinking of this note has my heart beating fast. To tell you the truth I’m not even sure if I can send it. Ok .. I … have feelings for you. I came up with an idea to tell it to u.. I did a secret blogpost for u ….. invisible blog for Mike. It really is making me nervous to write you .. you’d know why if you realized who i am… now that I have I’m certain I should send it.

"Invisible Blog for Mike" was a link which went to a Blogger post. Well, I know that a fat Chud like me isn’t going to have any secret admirers, so I figured right away that this was some sort of scam. So I decided to click through and see my "invisible blog".  Which, in hindsight was a dumb thing to do.  I mean, it’s INVISIBLE so I don’t know what I was expecting to see.  But, surprise, I actually COULD see something.  It was this:
Secret Blog for Mike

Mike…
If you’re reading this I guess you got my e-mail. I’m still not completely sure about this but I can’t hide my feelings any longer. I want you to guess who I am and approach me yourself. To help you out with your guessing I made a few pictures and videos with Mike written on my body. Theyre kind of risque photos so I had to make a profile at http://www.newfriendly.com and post them there. My username in the members area is ILuvMike09. Its a free website but you might need a CC or Debit to verify your age because I had to. Sigh. But anyway sign up at http://www.newfriendly.com and once you are inside search for me. I want you to guess who I am and then approach me yourself. Im shy and this is the bravest thing Ive probably ever done but you need to do the rest.

Now, as I said, nobody’s gonna be pining for me from afar, let alone sending me risque photos of herself (or himself, I guess), so I knew this was BS. A 10 second Google search of "newfriendly.com" revealed that numerous other people got the same message.  The ones dumb enough to click all the way through verified what I already knew; this was a bad attempt at phishing my personal information.
Seriously.  You want to trick me out of my personal info?  Make the offer involving cheeseburgers or pizza or something.  If someone sent me an email that said "Dear Mike, I am working with Burger King and we’re testing out new menu items in your area.  Based on information we got from the web, we feel that you’d be a perfect candidate to help us evaluate these new foods.  For your time we will compensate you with a special card that will give you 25 free cheeseburgers.  To sign up for this taste testing, please send us your social security number so we can prepare your special "King Card".
A secret admirer?  Come on, I don’t buy that for a second.
