Convinced this is a suspicious email because my domain name is nothing special. Could replying to an email cause you problems (I am on a PC :D )

Hello,

I am interested in purchasing your domain bodleypix.com.

If interested in selling please reply at your earliest convenience.
Also let me know the asking price or we can just submit an offer.
Either way works.

    Any email that begins with " hello " should be trashed. Thats what happens on my comp anyway.

    Reading an e-mail can cause problems if you are using Microsoft Outlook Express. Replying to e-mail does not cause problems.

    If you are interested in selling, reply, if not, ignore it.

    How can reading an e-mail cause problems if you don't click on any links or open attachments?

    replying marks you as live bait...don't. unless you don't count spam as a problem. if, however, you feel you must, originate your reply email from a free account you setup just for that purpose. don't sacrifice your main email account for curiosity.

    I get enough spam now - just seems like a lot of trouble to go through just to send me some viagra mail :D

    I didn't reply because I thought it must be some kind of scam.
