Hiding your e-mail?

[scootrsmb]

If anyone is familiar with the WoW e-mail account spam, how does that change the display e-mail to whatever you want? Is there any way this can be done with outlook express so i dont have the world of warcraft background behind the txt?

Not really sure what you are talking about, a sample screen shot would be nice.

In the world of warcraft e-mail scam, you can put in any e-mail you want to appear as the e-mail was sent from (ex [email protected]). I want to know how you do that with outlook express.

Heres the link for the e-mail thing for an example.

When using outlook express, you're unable to get anonymous behind a proxy. I suggest running the normal GMAIL system.

Why?
Simple, they're hiding your IP. If someone wants your IP, they have to discuss it with google first. If you're behind a proxy, no one will find you.

Also, when using GMAIL, you can change your display email to something else, but your normal one will still be visible. This however, is uncommonly noticed by the victim you're trying to scam.

How to do it in GMAIL:
1. Go into settings.
2. Go into Accounts.
3. Press Edit Info in the very first row.
4. The name you wrote/made up when creating the gmail account will appear at the first row.
5. Write the "email" you want the victim to see in the textbox which is under your original account name. (Example: [email protected] )
6. Be sure that you've marked that field aswell (The radiobutton to the left), so it'll be the default one.
7. Press Save Changes, and you're done!

I hope that was easy enough.
