If you have Verizon, you should be getting a email scam soon.

Is there a way to report these scams?

Merry Christmas

EDIT:

See email below.  The so-called hyperlinks do NOT go to Verizon.

I got a message on my cell saying that I was terminally late on payments and that I needed to call a number to pay up.  I was tempted to buy an airhorn and call the number.

I like to look at the source code and determine where the fake data collection page is being hosted.  Then I fill out the form with appropriate racial epithets, culturally insensitive remarks, etc.

I do the same thing.  I try to insult in the following order:

1.  Religion/deity

2.  Race/national origin

3.  Gender/orientation

4.  Intelligence  

The WoT has allowed me to learn more culturally insensative words and phrases.  Lately I have been applying this approach to 419 scammers also.
