I don't know if I would want Google to have the authority to remove hands.
@Mike: I'm pretty sure that this comment is somehow egregious, but judging from the grammar in those examples, the author probably lives in a region where it is customary punishment.

'Ere Dave?

Khai, sure. You can have it. Everyone might as well have it. Save it somewhere safe, though.

There's a proper ways of reporting these phishing attempts.

I received spam emails from 2 of my "friends" in the past year...their accounts were hacked and the perps sent a message with a link to pharmaceuticals in one email, and requested money in the other. I played along with the one requesting money, told him I'd get him some asap

What an idiot.
