You have what I was trying to say. You are right about forwarding anything that you are not sure about.
I just log in to my ebay and check if I have any messages. I never go by way of a link from an email.
I never open an atachment that I didn't ask for. That can ruin your day in a hurry.
I am gone from the computer for 60 days very often. You should see all the emails I have when I get back saying that I have to act in a day or two. Nothing ever happens when I don't.
