It's also possible that your geriatric senile ass may have fallen prey
to an email scam that appears to be from Paypal but is really from
someone phishing for passwords.
I blame the kikes. As if them murdering Christ wasn't bad enough now
they let the mud ducks rent those Blue Hippo computers causing the
internet to look like a fucking cheese line.
This is what happens when they let the coloreds use the internet. Next
thing you know Google will have popup ads for cole slaw, fried
chicken, malt duck and apple jolly ranchers.
Bob Campbell, if you need any further assistance in solving this crime
just let me know.
I'm always willing to help a friend.
Have a great fucking day
