I m getting this kind mail almost every day...one the name I changing...matter is same
I got the exact same email (on 2nd October, 2017) only "her" name was Katherine and not Liza.I have tried replying back a few times to see if I get any further response (I know full well it's a scam by the way) but the email came back undelivered or there was just no reply.I would be interested to know who the actual scammers are and where they come from.
There has been a massive increase in spam very recently, with this message (different names only) making up the bulk of it.I'm getting it at at least five different addresses.
