Sentence: Eudora had been having an e-mail relationship with Dick, whom she had met on a dating website, "lonelyloserswhowant tomeetotherlonelylosers.com".

Like where she banked (and her account number)and her daily routine. After she had told him all about herself, the e-mails slowed down and the last few she had sent him kept bouncing back as undeliverable. Naive as she was, she realized that he was losing interest rapidly and she could not even contact him. He was about to really phishappoint her more the next time she used her debit card!
