Its the same thing...these softwares don't crack up e-mails from heaven! The softwares hack websites for e-mails and also search the web randomly incase of careless posters.

Whichever way sha, I thank my stars that I've not been victim to any scam mails. But I can't help but relate it to my cautiousness. I may be wrong though...
