In reply to Jason Cataldo. Wrong Jason....they are identity thieves, credit card scammers, hackers trying to put malware on your computer, etc. Don't diminish the risks you take by actually underestimating their prowerss at scamming!

These aren’t hackers trying to steal your credit card information, they are affiliates running poorly executed marketing ploys.

Thanks for blogging this. This is excellent. I get plenty of Skype friend requests and I always deny them as I don’t know them and know they are scammers but never knew exactly how they worked. I did enjoy reading this and think it is excellent for educating others. I work with mentally disabled people who are very susceptible to scammers and one guy in particular believed that these emails he was getting trying to get him to sign up on a dating site were real women interested in him even though they were ads to get you to sign up. I feel bad for the vulnerable. People will say that “stupid people deserve what they get” completely disregarding those who cannot help not knowing better.

Don’t think so!

I get people constantly wanting me to add their name to my contact list. I often wonder how they get my name and skype number. I usually delete and block the request. (Partly I do this, cause I would start a Skype conversation with: ‘Hi ya honey, I’m naked, wanna get it on.” And what if it was a real Nigerian Prince/Princes–the diplomatic scandal and what not?)

I have fun with the robo voice recognition calls. Just ask “her” what color the moon is tonight…stump her every time.

I keep getting messages from the same five “men” – funny – they are all admirals, Colonels or Doctors. They use different variations of a name, sometimes it might be Dr. Mark something or next time it might be Adm. John Mark, etc. I keep blocking them or reporting them as Spam, but they always manage to come back on. I just decline and mark block or spam. It is very annoying and Skype tells me there is nothing they can do.

Does Microsoft actually do anything about this?

I deleted my Skype because of these annoying things.
