I've been pretty lucky. I've never had Scames. A friend of mine had them many years ago, and he said the ointment he had to use really burned, but it took care of them.

Heads up yall. There's a new wrinkle in the phishing shenanigans. Here's a link that will shed some light on the exploit:
http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=109328
BUT, other places I've read said that this exploit also works on WIN versions of Nutscrape, Firefox and Opera. Shitheads can register domains using unicode instead of ascii and actually get a domain that (address wise) looks like (say) www.paypal.com, but is acutally some other server that isn't paypal.
Funny thing is, IE isn't affected by it, probably because it's too tarded to understand unicode. Point being, even if a link looks like it's legit, type it in manual and do not click on any link in an email.
Oh yeah, scames suck, but a mix of lime juice, sand and battery acid will protect even the tenderest of choads.

To get rid of 'scames' in your male privates area, try this. Pour half a bottle of rum on it, then a cup of sand. The 'scames' first get drunk, and then stone each other to death...
