Yep, I got those Washington Mutual PHISHING scams, too. Apparently our emails are in the same scammers' list...

I immediately forwarded them to the abuse address at Washington Mutual so they would be aware of what was going on as quickly as possible. I hope they catch some of those weenies and give them hard time.

I did hear that the FBI are investigating some email scams

Yes, but the FBI would rather we not know that.

Some? What is 'some'? I just reported THREE MORE email scams to Yahoo. THREE in the same day. I suspect it's the same person using the same list to send out different scams hoping he'll someday manage to fool someone or other. Of course, the origin point for all of the emails, despite the listed return address @yahoo.com, is in Europe. But this is getting a bit ridiculous. If an obscure person like me is getting three of these a day it must be a pandemic and the FBI had better be investigating it.
