This CL ad makes me SO leery

G-mail is great for hiding who and where you are. Just before I entered several Asian countries several years ago our IT guy set me up with Gmail. He quickly showed me what can be done with it in the advanced mode. He said if my laptops were stolen no one could see any of my emails because Gmail can hid them. He also said when I hit 'send' with my Gmail, the receiver has no clue where the mail is coming from nor who is sending it. So yes, Gmail is probably the provider of choice for scammers.

Interesting about Gmail, and explains why all the obvious scam ads on Los Angeles CL of late have had Gmail addresses attached to them.
