When criminals actually had some cahones and robbed you at gunpoint. These days they are too afraid to actually face their victims. Instead, they do their criminal acts in the dark and in secret, where they cannot be found. Leave a door unlocked, your stuff gets stolen. Build something in your yard, it gets destroyed. Buy something with a credit card, punk steals your numbers and goes shopping. This time? I open my email and get a nice big virus on my new computer. Almost lost the HD, memory, and monitor on this one, maybe more if my antivirus didn't catch it in time. Course I had to pay $100 to upgrade it first, but it did fix the problem. Then just had to restore it, and it appears to be fine now.
So if you like your computer, do not open an email about an airplane ticket purchase. Looked real, and I wondered why in the world someone would buy me a plane ticket. Course I first thought they sent me someone else's ticket. Turned out both thoughts were wrong. Just some punk kid living in his mom's basement with too many zits and too much free time. Kid probably never had a girlfriend in his life, and it looks like he never will. But kid or no kid I'm tired of people and their cowardly virus emails. Every computer I ever had got ruined by a virus. I ever catch one of them I'm going to give them a piece of my mind. And my foot, and my hand, and likely an elbow or two. Forget the guns, it'll be a knock down drag out fight.
Alright, back to work. Rant over.

I got that same email about a week ago. I knew I had not bought any tickets and no one would be buying me any, so I just deleted it. Lucky me. [:)]
The only reason I had the thought was because my mom mentioned buying a mini vacation for my birthday, and though I said I did not have time to go anywhere, I thought she did anyway. But Toronto was never ever a possible destination, which made me think it was someone else's. I just wanted to make sure my name wasn't on it.
american airlines? mine was.
i got that one for the last 2 weeks, but didnt open it.

American Airlines alright. The one time I ever open an email that I don't know of.
