[Leica] OT: Palpal scam

[rangefinder at screengang.com (Didier Ludwig)]

As I said, answering these mails just confirms the senders that your 
mailadress is really existing. You just raise the amount of incoming spam, 
and that's something your firewall can't inhibit. And the password 
keylogging tool on the sender's server doesn't understand your injuries and 
therefore doesn't care about.
I strongly recommend neither to open such mails nor to click links inside it.
